Was shopping at a little boutique store earlier this week and found a large colorful Parrot wine bottle holder! It is one of those pieces that catches your attention when you first see it. Saw one a couple years ago in a catalog but haven't seen one till now. I bought it. I was also luck it was on clearance! So it was really a great buy!

Found a display of Germ X hand santitzer (purse size bottle) with a cloth cover for the bottle. One of the fabric prints was skull and crossbones.

Price: $1.99

Your right Molly. There is some really neat stuff here.

I really like the wine bottle stoppers, especialy the flip flop one. Also the 5 O'Clock Somewhere checkbook cover is a must.

Think I'll start making out an early Christmas/birthday wish list!

Thanks for posting about these.

I have got to get there next time I am home in Charleston.
That is unless I bribe my sis to head down for me.

I may take the suggestion for a Christmas list.

I'll have to Google "bow biters" too!
What I'd really, really love to have is a bobble head surfing Jimmy for my dashboard. When will the powers-that-be figure out what a hit they'd be???!!!

I thought bow biters were for kids to keep their shoe laces tied?

they are, but I grew up in a small town and doing weird stuff was kinda expected. I had Leonardo ones and I thought they were cool :) Ended the need for me to double knot things.. in fact as I think about it, I wore them for my first year of college. That explains a lot right there.... :)
