Everything Kitchens loves our friends over at Fiesta® - so much so that we’ve collaborated on some special exclusive design collections to bring our customers something special. If you’re curious about how these unique collector’s pieces came to light, we’ve got all the fun details below. Read on to explore our exclusive collections and see some behind-the-scenes concepts and original designs!
While Everything Kitchens has carried Fiesta® for many years, it wasn’t until 2019 that we began our exciting collaborative journey with Fiesta®. Our close relationship has given us the opportunity to create unique and artistic collector’s pieces that can be displayed on their own or used as accent pieces with your existing Fiesta® dinnerware.
Everything Kitchens currently offers 6 exclusive designs including Nordic Woodland, Christmas Whimsy, Sweet Candy Hearts, Easter Enchantment, Fall Forest, and Peace & Love. Each design concept was thought up by Everything Kitchens founder & owner, Emily Church, and the designs were brought to life by Chrisara Designs, a twin sister artis duo local to the Springfield area.
Nordic Woodland
Nordic Woodland Concept Art
Our first collaboration with Fiesta® was Nordic Woodland, a Scandinavian-inspired collection that incorporates enchanting flowers and crawling ivy amongst woodland creatures and serene villages nestled in forest landscapes. The Nordic Woodland collection includes designs printed on White, Sunflower, and Turquoise Dinnerware pieces and launched in August of 2019.
Emily’s Inspiration: “I wanted this design to have a bit of a Scandinavian feel while mixing Nordic style and nature (which I love), while also keeping Fiesta® fans interested by incorporating so many fun Fiesta® colors.”

Christmas Whimsy
Christmas Whimsy Concept Art
Our next and most popular exclusive collection is Christmas Whimsy, which launched in November 2020. The finalized designs include snowy cabins in a tranquil forest with gently falling snow, a rosy-cheeked Santa & reindeer making their yearly journey to deliver gifts across the world, and our personal favorite - Spot, an excited rein-puppy waiting underneath the tree to brighten Christmas morning. The artwork is printed in Scarlet and Shamrock on White dinnerware pieces, including the tree plate & light bulb plate for a festive touch.
Emily’s Inspiration: “Most designs for Christmas are very cookie-cutter Santa styles. I wanted to create something different - something captivating and unique that draws you into a Christmas story. I wanted the design to feel like you were sitting in a warm cabin by the fire looking out the window at a snowstorm waiting for Christmas while sipping hot chocolate.”

Sweet Candy Hearts
Our playful and cheeky Sweet Candy Hearts collection was launched in January of 2021 with the original four colors - Turquoise, White, Sunflower, and Butterscotch. In January 2022, we expanded the collection with an additional 6 colors including Meadow, Scarlet, Lapis, Poppy, Slate, and Mulberry. The pink text color is actually the Pantone color for Fiesta®'s Flamingo - we wanted to pay homage to a retired color we still loved.
Emily’s Inspiration: “I was inspired by candy conversation hearts from my childhood and thought our Fiesta® fans would love them just as much as we do. These adorable heart-shaped dishes each feature a cheeky phrase and are a sweet way to celebrate Valentine’s day, anniversaries, or any other day when a little extra love needs to shine.”

Easter Enchantment
Easter Enchantment Concept Art
Our Easter Enchantment collection launched in March 2021. Designs include curious baby chicks & fuzzy bunnies searching for hidden Easter eggs in fields of fresh flowers. The artwork is printed in Turquoise and Sunflower against White dinnerware pieces. The most popular piece from this collection is our 9.6” Small Oval Serving Platter, which was designed to look like an easter egg.
Emily’s Inspiration: “I wanted to create a collection for Easter that could also be adorable enough to use all spring long. Growing up on a farm, I’ve always loved being around baby animals and wanted to include the sweet baby chicks and bunnies to commemorate that love. Each piece is dressed to impress your family or other guests at Easter brunch.”

Fall Forest
Fall Forest Concept Art
Our Fall Forest collection launched in August of 2021, and includes foxes, turkeys, squirrels, and other woodland creatures amongst forest trees and harvest pumpkins. The art is printed in Butterscotch & Meadow on Ivory dinnerware pieces.
Emily’s Inspiration: “I wanted to couple American traditions and design elements of Thanksgiving & fall into one intricate, natural design. With colorful fall leaves and festive autumn details, this collection is designed to be used all fall long and makes the perfect table setting on Thanksgiving day.”

Peace & Love
Peace & Love Concept Art
The Peace & Love collection debuted at the 2022 Homer Laughlin China Collectors Association (HLCCA) annual conference, which was held in Everything Kitchens’ hometown of Springfield, Missouri. This groovy collection will transport you back in time to the 1970s and features mushrooms, peace signs, flowers, rainbows, and the iconic VW bus for a totally retro vibe. Designs are printed in Turquoise, Flamingo, Daffodil, and Chocolate against Sunflower & White Fiesta® dinnerware. Fun Fact: The designs were originally supposed to be printed on Daffodil dinnerware pieces, but Fiesta® sent the mockups on Sunflower instead and we ended up loving it!
Emily’s Inspiration: “I’ve noticed a lot of the 70s styles coming back around and figured I’d try it out on dinnerware. I tried to stick with authentic 70s colors that tied into the existing and retired Fiesta® colors for a mix of vintage & modern. With rainbows, flowers, peace signs, and the iconic vintage van, we created a trip down memory lane back into the 70s!”
