Only use matching for adult water.  Kid's water is multicolor plastic, wine is wine glasses and beer is beer glasses (not usually steins).

Yes, we bought a large quantity of classic, sturdy pint glasses many years ago and use them for all meals except some parties, when we might have more colorful or themed dinnerware and glassware (or even plastic cups, especially when all the little kids are invited!). We love the simple style that complements everything else on the table, and they're a perfect weight—not too heavy or too light.

Nope!

My paper plates match each other. Everything else is whatever.

only if i set a formal dinner table not on a everyday basis.  I just use my tervis tumbler all the time.

I buy sets of Libbey tumblers and Old Fashions.  When enough break, I buy more.

At dinner I have a glass of wine, DH has tea or a beer.

When I set the table, I use clear matching glasses that are big enough for ice cubes for tea.

@ECBG   I used to have crystal stemware...inherited, not purchased. I used it for dinner, even when it was just the two of us. Then when I sold my "good" china, the stemware went, too. I checked w/ all kids involved and no one wanted it...they just don't entertain formally...don't think many people do.

Now, I use my set of every day glasses. The water glass  is on a stem, too as well as the wine glasses...just plain old $5 each glassware, but yes it matches.
