McCoy- Corning Ware Country Festival

 I found this cute McCoy Pitcher with the Corning Ware Country Festival Pattern on it. 

 I know companies let other companies use there patterns on pieces, but I had never seen McCoy like this before. 

It is up for sale in my Etsy Shop... Check it out!

Pyrex Update:

I have been collecting Pyrex for a little over a year now and my one problem is displaying...  I am constantly adding to my collection and rearranging my shelves. This is what I came up with today.  I don't love it because you can't see everything...I guess I just need a bigger shelf! 

I also have to show of my sour cream glasses and my one piece of Cathrineholm I found for $3 recently!  :-)
