Your pointy-toed fashion doll gets tired of being cooped up in the house, no matter how dreamy it is. Let her get dolled up for a garden party and perch on this nicely detailed garden bench. The 2-1/2" high resin bench is painted very grass green, with a 8-1/4" x 2-3/4" seat. If you're too old for dolls, press it into use as cute kitsch.

This small pot scrubber is quite suitable for scrubbing any number of things, including fingernails, sinks or potatoes. Made of natural plant-fiber bristles tied with rope that's covered in rubber, it measures a 4-1/2" x 2-1/4" oval x 1-1/4" thick, plus a small hanging ring. Hand-made in Sri Lanka.

You Bellowed?
Ever feel like just bellowing at someone? Then a fireplace tool labeled "Bellow" might be fine, but if you want to encourage your fire, you'll need "Bellows." (From "Scissor" and "Bellow" labels comes great surplus!) This set is 19" long in the traditional bellows shape, made of unfinished pine and dark brown leather attached with brasslike nail heads. Point the little metal snout at your fireplace, grill or wood-burning pizza oven and pump it back to life. Sorry, not suitable for CPR.

High Kicks Times Six
It's our first holiday ornament with (3) Radio City Rockettes kicking their legs over their heads while wearing little green Santa's helper outfits & perky smiles. These were once "Your Gift from Vaseline Intensive Care®" (retail value $15!) but they're ours now, and they can be yours for 3-1/2 bucks for (2) ornaments, a total of (6) girls and (12) legs, which makes it less than 30 cents per gam. And for $28 you could have as many Rockettes as Radio City has for the Christmas show. Glue 'em together & line 'em up on the mantel.

A Clothespin As Big As Your Head
You could hang Donald Trump's ego out to dry with this 8-3/4" x 2-1/4" x 1-3/4" spring-type clothespin. The jaws open to a max of 1-3/4" and the little circle cut-out would take a 1" dia rope. Every laundry in the country, and in your utility room, should have one of these. Stand it up to hold reminders, special requests, and phone messages they won't miss. Would make a nice dog or gator head for a wooden puppet, too. Current colors are red, yellow, green and blue. We'll pick (2) different ones for you.

The Tasteful Toilet Coffee Cup
We've all seen coffee cups designed to look like toilet bowls, but this, we are proud to say, is easily the most dignified, tasteful toilet-bowl coffee cup in the world. In white ceramic (much like the real thing) it's 4-5/8" tall x 5-3/4" x 4-1/4" overall and holds 7 oz. Nice big grip under the tasteful tank, too. Sorry, no discount for a service for 8.

An Atomic Clock, Eh?
Recognize this digital atomic clock? You must be hanging around hospitals and other government institutions up in Canada, because this came from their actual supplier. Accurate to a fault and visible across a very large room, this giant digital clock refreshes and resets the exact time each night and is 16-1/2" wide x 10-1/2" tall x just 1-3/4" thick, with a clean, brushed-aluminum-look plastic frame. Displays time (digital LCD h/m/s, with h/m being 4" tall), time zone (select any of 6 North American zones), indoor temperature, day and date. It has 12- or 24-hour settings, choice of C or F temps, and mounts on a wall or sits on a built-in stand. Runs on (3) "C" batteries that come with it.

Select-a-shape lightweight, disposable, cream-colored LDPE bowls! The 16-oz bowls with tight-fitting disposable lids are 2-3/8" deep and a bit over 5" dia at the top. Look like lidded cereal bowls and were, we think, intended to be used on deli trays, but we won't make a food-safe claim. We'll suggest that they make nice paint pots and craft containers, and are cheap enough to either recycle or toss out when you're done. The shallow LDPE bowls are 1-3/8" deep, also a bit over 5" dia at the top, hold 8 oz, and are also a good shape for holding paint or bits and pieces during art class. Buy both sizes, since the lids from the deep bowls also fit the shallow ones! Serendipity? We consider it clever planning.

Green Laser Par Excellence!
Da Mare could use this to point out cracks in the infrastructure at Wrigley Field. You, having a forgiving nature, will resist the urge to point out cracks in da mayor's infrastructure. You will, of course, use it to point out chimney cracks to the tuck-pointer, a cracked limb to the tree-trimmer, and the crack in your profit picture during a slide presentation. You can do all that and much, much more with the bright light from this 5mW green laser pointer. It's an unbelievable tool. If you need a laser pointer that seems to go on forever and is so strong that you can actually see the beam in the dark, it will be the best low-cost investment you ever made. Or the coolest high-end toy. The 532nm Class IIIa light is 5-5/8" long x 1/2" dia, with (2) "AAA" batteries (included), a momentary-on switch, pocket clip, and case. An absolute necessity for construction, surveying, warehousing, inspection and other large sites. And for playing in the dark.

Dancing Colors
Hang this holographic prism in the window for delicate, changing color effects. As the sun shines through, it throws splashes of red, yellow, green, blue, violet and more around the room. The glass disc is 4-1/8" dia x 1/4" thick with a chrome-look frame. Comes with a suction cup hanger to mount it on a window. (Find a way to make it rotate for an especially cool effect!)
