I'm scaled down now to maybe 25 but I can't help myself from buying 5 or 6 new ones every year!

I believe the planter is called the "Beaded" pattern. I have a book at home and I'll look if I can remember.<br /><br />I have several pieces in different colors but I've been focusing on collecting all one pattern in white and I plan to make a shelf in my kitchen for displaying them all in one place.

Really so pretty! <br /><br />You would have loved my mother's habit of stopping in Zanesville and Roseville, Ohio on the way to my grandmother's house in Eastern Ohio when we were children. Had to always stop at the potteries and pick up seconds. My aunt and grandmother did the same on their way to Cincinnati. All of the family kitchens had plenty of Ohio pottery.<br /><br />What a perfect menu for lucky dinner guests. Ina got the nut recipe from Union Square Cafe in NYC. We have had them at the bar when visiting our daughter.<br /><br />I just can't believe how pretty the hydrangeas are!Cindy @ a curious gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10303756811551040856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6855559240091587971.post-13639600082766266472013-06-28T13:29:39.164-04:002013-06-28T13:29:39.164-04:00I, too, have begun collecting McCoy pottery but in...I, too, have begun collecting McCoy pottery but in the sunny yellow color. The art deco designs are so structurally wonderful and eye catching. And you can't complain about the prices, either. There's just something special about collecting or acquiring antiques and collectibles because each piece has a unique history and as such is a piece of our collective story.Sheilanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6855559240091587971.post-36251192993352394262013-06-28T11:39:19.235-04:002013-06-28T11:39:19.235-04:00Your new old pots are beautiful!!
