It is McCoy Monday. Today I want to share this cache pot, one of my first pieces. The soft shades of green, the flower shaped pots and the sweet yellow bird make me smile. This is another of the McCoy pieces that use a bird, in this case three dimensional. I love it! There is another edition of the cache pot that has yellow flower pots instead of the green you see here. I don’t own that one, but I am sure I will some day. I display this piece on a little shelf above my kitchen counter.
It is snowing a bit here this morning but it is that kind of light, wind-blown snow that won’t accumulate – I hope. Riley, by the way, is so much better since we have changed the sleeping arrangements. We absolutely made the right decision. Now, when it is time for bed, Scout gets up on the love seat, Riley settles down on the floor and neither one blinks an eye. No more pacing or trying to follow us up the stairs…and every morning we have a grand reunion.
Happy Monday!
Good Morning Claudia!
Just popping by to catch-up (it’s been awhile).
First, I love this piece of McCoy – my Great-Aunt Gladys had this same piece in her sunporch, among many other pieces. Hope that you find the yellow counter part!
The swap that you had with Meri sounds and looks like a blast. All that fun playing with love and romance!
Here’s hoping the snow that we’re expecting agian tonight doesn’t come your way!

You have such a wonderful collection Claudia. I have always admired McCoy and you are so fortunate to have so many lovely pieces, thank you for sharing them with us.
I’m happy to hear that Riley is doing better, I know how unsettling it can be when you’re worried about your fur baby.
Have a fabulous week Sweet Friend,
Karyn
Hi Claudia! I love the McCoy. There is a shop in St. Pete, FL that has lots of yellow but I need the green for my room. Someday….

Hi Claudia,
Thanks again for making my Valentines brighter. I’m so glad your babies are finally getting their situation down. It is hard, as they are just like children, and you just want to make sure everyone’s happy. Have a wonderful week.
Hugs,
Meri
What lovely McCoy pieces.I have a few but would so love to get some more…always looking. xoxoo
Very pretty! I am glad to hear your fur babies have adapted well, it was probably harder on the humans. It also looks like you got some really neat things on your swap. I hope you have a great week Claudia!
Love the cache pot Claudia darling, it reminds me of my mum’s jug. She only had one piece and loved it so. Have a lovely week.
Love & Hugs

What a wonderful piece of pottery this one is. I love the McCoy birds. Your collection is a treat to see Claudia. It’s so nice.
Hi Claudia,
I was feeling a little better this morning so I thought I’d come over to say Hi. Hope you are having a wonderful day and that you had a wonderful Valentine’s Day. Love your McCoy cache pot. Love, love, love the green color.
Hugs and Kisses,

Oh Claudia….
You have the most delicious pottery…..I have never even seen this piece. It’s soooo delish!
Glad to know the “pups” have adjusted….
Warm hugs,

Beautiful piece, love the little bird. Glad to hear that you and your dogs are all sleeping well at night.
Blessings!

Hi Claudia,
Guess what, I have that McCoy too! I have a good story, I went to a lady’s house who had a craiglist ad for a birdcage I wanted. When I got there she was moving & had stuff on the curb. She said to help myself. There were loads of china pieces, hat boxes & that McCoy piece. Those are the days us junkers live for@! Lisa
That is a beautiful piece of McCoy. You have a great collection.
Congrats on two years at you lovely Mockingbird Hill Cottage. From the pictures you have posted, I am in love with your home.
Sweetness to you.
