The silicone worked great (but I never put it in the dishwasher). I stopped using it around 18 mo, because LO had learned that we don't throw our plates. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sugarbooger-suction-plates#post-2320546 Thu, 15 Oct 2015 05:06:55 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2320546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.KMM: I didn't want anything with suction because if they get out of shape they no longer work. </p> <p>Instead I went with the EZPZ mat which is silicon so it's flat on the bottom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sugarbooger-suction-plates#post-2320523 Thu, 15 Oct 2015 02:06:05 +0000 NorCalWayfarer 2320523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the SugarBooger designs and have several of their products including the plate, but we usually just put LO's food on his high chair tray and only recently started using plates/bowls so I can't really attest to its longevity. We also have an EZPZ mat which is great and really hard for DS to pull up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sugarbooger-suction-plates#post-2318638 Tue, 13 Oct 2015 22:47:15 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2318638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.KMM: I think that's the one that MIL bought dd on her first birthday. She's 3 and we still use it regularly (maybe 3-5x/wk) It has held up really well, although I will say I only put it in the dishwasher maybe half the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sugarbooger-suction-plates#post-2318631 Tue, 13 Oct 2015 22:42:25 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2318631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone tried the SugarBooger Suction Plates?</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00746WUEW/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&#038;colid=3N6QUGOX8RW0E&#038;coliid=I31LQN7554VUWT&#038;psc=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00746WUEW/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&#038;colid=3N6QUGOX8RW0E&#038;coliid=I31LQN7554VUWT&#038;psc=1</a></p> <p>My mom got one and they look really cute and seem to suction well. But I wondered if anyone could attest to how they hold up and if they can really withstand a toddler without winding up dumped on the floor! </p> [attach=1437/15/nw6yap.522x545.91Znn8JqppL._SX522_.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mismatched-fiestaware-for-thanksgiving#post-1179818 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 15:36:36 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1179818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The dishes are so pretty. Part of the charm of Fiestaware are the colors.

A neutral table cloth and a flower arrangement with multi color flowers will pull it all together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mismatched-fiestaware-for-thanksgiving#post-1179549 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:24:00 +0000 Mrs. Cat in the Cradle 1179549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OK, fully convinced! I'm going to roll with it. And if the haters start any hate, he or she can eat dinner off of a paper plate in the driveway.</p> <p>I do need to figure out a table cloth/napkin color. I don't have a table cloth that fits, especially with the leaf in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mismatched-fiestaware-for-thanksgiving#post-1179489 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:08:22 +0000 honeybear 1179489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Fiestaware and mismatched plates in general, although I don't really think of differently-colored Fiestaware as mismatched, because it all coordinates so well. </p> <p>I'd drop (not literally!) the turquoise and bright blue plates and use the navy. That would make a beautiful Thanksgiving table! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mismatched-fiestaware-for-thanksgiving#post-1179480 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:06:20 +0000 Mrs. Cat in the Cradle 1179480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hellocupcake: A giant benefit of living about an hour from the factory store! :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mismatched-fiestaware-for-thanksgiving#post-1179465 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:03:33 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1179465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>oh i love it! so fun :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mismatched-fiestaware-for-thanksgiving#post-1179456 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:00:45 +0000 hellocupcake 1179456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I couldn't vote because "it's fine" doesn't mean "it's awesome/I'm jealous" (: I LOVE the different colors and think it will add to the celebration. Plus, thanksgiving foods are plain colors like turkey, pumpkin pie and mashed potatoes aren't fun colors. Those plates will make everything look even more awesome.

If you're worried about how your table will look, maybe avoid setting the plates out in advance? {Just set the silverware and glasses.}</p> <p>@Adira: I love that picking and choosing concept! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mismatched-fiestaware-for-thanksgiving#post-1179359 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 13:37:47 +0000 kiddosc 1179359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Would you seriously ever walk into a holiday event at someone's house and poo-poo the whole thing because they didn't use matching dishes? I think this is a case of over thinking the whole thing. The Fiestaware will work great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mismatched-fiestaware-for-thanksgiving#post-1179348 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 13:36:30 +0000 purrpletulips 1179348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think with all the colors of fall, the multi-colored dinnerware is just fine. But then I am perfectly happy to serve Thanksgiving on sturdy paper plates since there is very little clean-up involved :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mismatched-fiestaware-for-thanksgiving#post-1179347 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 13:36:29 +0000 Adira 1179347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are those all the colors you have? If so, for your six, I'd leave out the cobalt and the other blue. Use the rest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mismatched-fiestaware-for-thanksgiving#post-1179345 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 13:36:13 +0000 autumnlove 1179345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally fine!

Fiestaware all the time!!!</p> <p>Though my parents have sooooooooo many different colors that they can pick and choose to match the day. So for Thanksgiving, they'll use their reds, oranges, yellows, and browns! For Christmas it's reds and greens! For everything else it's "pick your favorite color"!</p> <p>ETA: I even used a mix of their Fiestaware plates and rented white plates for my wedding! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mismatched-fiestaware-for-thanksgiving#post-1179329 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 13:31:20 +0000 Mrs. Cat in the Cradle 1179329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The title pretty much says it all. I don't own a fancy dishware set that matches. Well, I do have black plates that are everyday type of stuff, but those have fallen into major hag/not for company territory. The Fiestaware that I've collected is my nice set, and I'm usually fine with that, but would it be like a clown car puked on my Thanksgiving table setting? If it helps, I have Fiestaware serving dishes in multiple colors too.</p> <p>I'm not going to buy anything, I can borrow my mom's fancy china that sees daylight once, maybe twice a year. But that kind of feels like it'd be a PITA, especially with everything else that goes into prepping for a holiday meal. But if it would look really bad, I will try not to be too lazy.</p> <p>Picture of dinner plate collection is attached. I need 6 plates, so I can drop 2. </p> [attach=2093/13/mve649.448x600.dishes.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-plates#post-815873 Wed, 29 May 2013 15:09:22 +0000 immabeetoo 815873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just started but have one of the boon plates and I like it!
