Mylar Warmth

They have the look of something designed for the space program. They're mylar, a paper-thin shiny metallic sheet, that comes in handy when your car breaks down in winter, or when you're separated from your climbing group on the slopes of Mt. McKinley. Barring that, they're also a perfect material for a do-it-yourself cold-climate Halloween costume-near impossible to rip by hand, but cut easily with scissors. There's no padding, so they wouldn't be too comfy on your bed, but they sure are warm. They both come folded about the size of a wallet. The Blanket is 52" x 82", the Sleeping Bag is 34" x 84".

Real Corks!!

We have obtained a large number of real natural corks, mostly surplus with a few fill-ins bought commercially. They range across the popular sizes used in science labs to seal vessels (drill your own holes for glass tubing, etc) and to use as floats. Or just use them to seal bottles that don't have closures or cry out for a decorative seal.

Goo-Goo-Googly Eyes

Goo-Goo-Googly Eyes

Ancient Chinese secret for assembling dolls (and they ought to know, given the number of dolls assembled in China): Googly eyes that kids will laugh at are good. Googly eyes kids can pick off and swallow are not good. These 7/16" dia white-plastic eyes with loose 1/8" dia pupils have 1/2" x 1/8" dia striated shafts. Lock washers fit snugly onto the shafts so they stay safely where they belong. We'll send you (6) packs of (6) eyes each - enough for (18) teddy bears or (36) stuffed cyclops dolls.

Victorian Dropper

Victorian Dropper

It looks as though it should be used for administering laudanum! A 1-1/4" sq x 3" tall clear glass bottle, it has thick molded sides and a heavy lip: very antique in appearance. It is stoppered with a red(!) rubber stopper which is the squeeze bulb for the glass dropper tube inside. A real eye catcher, but give it a good wash please. It clearly is not sterile.

Pills With Punch

Add a little pizazz to your nitro pills! This 1-3/4" x 1/2" dia container for meds is anodized aluminum in mostly silver but also could be in blue, turquoise, purple, red, gold (our choice). It's gasketed so it's watertight. We recommend cleaning the inside with a cotton swab dipped in alcohol before using, since some have a bit of rust-colored residue in them. Flashy!

Incredible

We were absolutely flummoxed when we saw these brummagem globes! How did these Moroccan–inspired accessories show up in our warehouse, instead of some trendy home–decor shoppe? The shiny 3–7/8" dia plastic metallic looking globes are wrapped in a copper–colored exterior armature, graced with (2) metallic–gunmetal marbles in a similar, if finer, armature, hanging from a 28" plated, copper–colored chain? In your choice, not our choice, of silver or purple? All we can say is "Yes, Martha, there is a Santa Claus."

Big Glass Vase

Or very tall bowl. Candle chimney with a bottom. Gargantu-snifter. Tip jar. You decide. It's a sturdy, 1/8" thick, clear glass container that stands 9-3/4" tall on a 4" dia x 1-1/4" thick base and bowls out to 7-1/8" at its widest before narrowing to a 4-3/4" wide mouth. Big enough for fish, robust enough for a big candle, enough capacity for the biggest post-prandial brandy in history or, say, 10 lbs of M&Ms, although we're just guessing there.
