Plastic Housewares Adored  

                                       

If you were a 1950s housewife you had plenty of kitschy plastic housewares in your kitchen. Red and yellow were colors from the late 1940s through the early 1950s. Shortly after, pink and turquoise   took over in the Mid Century kitchen. Mail order catalogs and the neighborhood Dimestore were places to find lots of kitchenwares such as napkin holders, salt and pepper shakers.
