I bought new dinnerware set by The Cellar its called olives, I have a tuscany style kitchen. I'm having a hard time what color to use. Can anyone give me any ideas?

Answer
Not sure of the colors of your kitchen... Aprile Cornell - Burgundy is a pretty pattern for 'tuscan' theme. The colors have reds and golds and some 'olive tones" in them.

It's hard to answer not knowing the rest of the decor in the room If the table is round oval or square. Basically any color would work. By adding a napkin ring with the red and black and perhaps some red candle holders or a vase with the flowers or vase in the 3rd color. Since this is stoneware I would stay away from the metallic. Give us a picture of the room.

Where can I find an unusual funky, brightly coloured dinner plate set?

Q. I have quite a neutral dining room, as I live in a rented property, and would like to buy some really bright dinner ware. I have looked everywhere, and all I can find are relatively tame possibilities. Ebay even failed me! Is there anywhere I could find something unusual and bright that's not a plastic picnic set?

Answer
good will is wonderful

but you have to research the date in which the dinnerware was made for lead content in the glazes

target had a copy of what used to be called fiesta dinner ware that might be what you are looking for

green yellow blue orange red - you could get one place setting of each color and mix 'em up
