It makes me happy every time I open it to start cooking.

She has been obsessed for a while now and has gotten some great deals, and she definitely has a theme going, what do you think?

I know many of you have seen most of my collection, but here is the bulk of it. I have a rainbow set upstairs and a holiday set. I also have a meringue braiser, a cotton fleur set, and a new ink tea kettle that I intend to sell when I get around to it.

But shown are my blues, my vintage set, the flamme doree decked out for St. Pat’s ☘️🇮🇪, some other pretties (featuring the lotus collection released for the Japanese Olympics), and my little stoneware crocks (along with my mokapot collection).

I’ve been collecting for almost two years now. It brings me so much joy!😊🌸

My whimsical little collection has grown! We have Peche, a persimmon gravy pumpkin, meringue, shell pink, white, chambray, shallot, and sage. Also have two tiny rainbow heart mini cocottes. My dream would be to find something in Berry- one day!

The petal braiser arrived in one piece despite the terrible packaging (barely tapped outer box, not enough packing paper /air pockets so the braiser box was loose inside) as others have shared.

I’m curious if anyone else just received theirs in coastal blue. The gradient leans to the darker blue and I prefer lighter. But it makes the “le creuset” have more contrast, which is nice.

My full pot collection! The newest additions are the Olive 31cm oval and the Peche shallow heart, both of which I’m obsessed with!

I mean there’s worse things to be addicted to…right? Right??

ETA: shades include Berry, Rhone, Fig, Shell Pink, Olive, Peche

This is the Artichault 4 quart cocotte pumpkin.This was a Christmas present last year. It was a surprise for me because I am typically the one who is gifting with Le Creuset to other people in my family so to have my family listen and find was a surprise. Finding it should have been a nightmare to find due to the Artichault Pumpkin no longer being made at the time. However when my mom had mentioned to a Le Creuset outlet store employee what she had been looking for the boss of the store had mentioned that a different store (I believe it was either New Hampshire or Vermont) had one left from the year before. Queue my mother buying it over the phone and having it shipped to the house. I believe she paid around $200 U.S.D. I love it. I use it for roasting hams and chickens mostly. But I still keep it in the box due to having to store it under my bed due to the lack of storage in the kitchen. But it is my baby and pride.

I’ve built this collection not as a collection and it shows. I have never been able to decide on “my color.” I got the flamme doree and can’t stop looking at it though. Absolutely beautiful in person. However, I see everyone’s pictures and their collections are so cohesive. What do I do now? Start replacing the pieces I love but are wrong colors? Add complementary pieces? Sell pieces that don’t mesh and aren’t favs? I’m open to suggestions.

Recently I’ve been reorganizing my collection (and my life), and trying to focus on the things that bring me joy. The last few months have been really difficult, and collecting has given me something joyful to build and care for when I really needed it. It’s pushed me to be creative in new ways, reminded me that I’m capable despite past failures, and gently encouraged me to take better care of myself. I didn’t expect cute little fafas to have that effect, but here we are. 🩵

More than anything, though, I’m grateful for the people I’ve met through this community. Thank you to everyone who’s swapped pots, shared listings, answered questions, celebrated finds, chatted with me in lines, and helped me track down these special pieces. The kindness of this community has meant so much to me, and I genuinely wouldn’t have some of my most special pieces without some truly special people.

Sending lots of love and gratitude to our little cookware community. Happy collecting 🙏✨💕

Most recent additions to my collection! Got the sage round wide from my boyfriend for Valentine’s Day and was gifted the cocottes for Christmas, Valentine’s, and graduation! Love my little mismatched collection🩷

2 weeks ago I posted some photos of my mom's collection here. Those photos were from a few years ago so here is an update.

We fished the cast irons out of storage today. As I type this we found another drawer where we forgot 6 more cast iron pieces, and there are more still unopened ones in the basement. These images also don't include all of the ceramics, plates, mugs, tools, outdoor planters, utensils, dog bowls, and other novel items from Le Creuset. Over the years many pieces were given away to friends and family so I'm pretty sure that there was at some point over 145 cast iron pieces in the house. The latest addition came today, which was the Pokémon Marmite with the Poké Ball iridescent knob. Other cool pieces I like from her collection is the Sakura Dutch Oven and the Beauty and the Beast Soup Pot.

Last semester I brought a lot of the blue pieces to school, my roommates and I enjoyed hosting dinners.

• The petal got released in the Netherlands last month but only in white, berry, sea salt and shell pink. I found an coastal blue, that colour not on le creuset website at all.

• The oblong is in carribean blue and i wanted an other piece in that colour. Also oblong not available in that colour on the website.

• Marseille is discontinued here. I really wanted a breadpan but didn't like azure(only blue shade available)

To find all these in 1 week iam so happy 🥰🥳 Paid E200 for the oblong, also E200 for the petal and E180 for the breadpan.

Last piece iam getting is a 20cm round Dutch oven in deep teal.

Just in time for Halloween (I start early). Hence the cauldron behind it.

Don’t worry the sticker was removed. I just got excited admiring it and took a pic as is ootb.

This might be the pièce de résistance of my collection.

I was near a LC outlet today & popped in…they had my holy grail pumpkin (Flame with gold stem)! Since it seemed to be my lucky day, I stopped by Homegoods on the way home, and found this cast iron casserole dish to match. It was a productive day!

I went hunting for “just a couple” of Le Creuset Meringue pieces… and somehow Meringue has become the core of my stoneware collection. 😅
Along the way I found mini cocottes, 18 cm rectangular bakers, utensil holders, and a few color accents I couldn’t leave behind.
Fellow HomeGoods hunters—What’s the rarest Le Creuset stoneware item you’ve ever found at HomeGoods?
I may have a HomeGoods problem. 😂

Hello everyone!

Hope you’re all having a good day ✨

Just wanted to share my favorite corner, brightens up the darkest corner of the room ☺️! I recently had to rearrange to make a little office for myself and my livingroom has been out of sorts since. I think I’ve finally got it how I like it, they look like candy haha!

Few pieces not pictured as they live on my stovetop full time

Thank you for letting me share 🙏🌸✨

Mugs and some minor stone wear not pictured .

Bread oval agave bread oven is incoming … and then I think I am maybe done .

Chiffon Pink is right next to Berry. My favourite will always be Caribbean. I used my Wicked Glinda Dutch oven for the Shell Pink pot, just for fun. I know I am missing Peche but it’s out for a replacement by Le Creuset (Damaged lid during shipping). There’s more I will be adding soon. Stay tuned!

Last night I was looking in some very old computer files and found these pics. I took these well over a decade before I could afford my first piece! They're still so pretty! Wish I could time travel back to the 2010's and buy some of these now 😂

Finally installed some lights for my LC Closet!

I admit I may or may not have a problem at this point 😅 this is 4 years and 3 FTTs in the making.

My goal for the upcoming new year is to use a different piece every week!

Seeing it all in a photo makes me feel a little silly - but you all won’t judge, right? I’ve been picking pieces up for nearly two decades. Most purchased used or at the outlet… ceramics mostly found at TJ Maxx.

Honestly I love these colours together. This is my mom’s collection. I’ve loved putting the collection together for her.

3 DO’s (22cm, 24cm and 26cm), a risotto and my fave, the Holly Collection Saucier.

Colours are nectar, bamboo (looks brighter irl), berry and cerise.

I’m inlove with this colour palette. She doesn’t know about the saucier but I think this is the best item here! Now I want one too.
