Why does Roger always get the credit for the skull and crossbones pirate flag? We feel it is time to share and have elected Barry to the post because he just walked by the vast editorial department here at A.S.&S. (AKA "my desk") Our Jolly Barry flag is 3ft x 5 ft., black polyester with a reinforced edge containing grommets for flying. It has the traditional skull and crossbones in white with the added fillip that the skull is wearing an eye patch! Sail Away!!

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!)

We’ve never felt the need to hang Illinois flag curtains on the windows here at the home office, but we understand they do things differently in Texas. Hence, our each is a pair of Texas-flag curtains, each at 36" x 30" with 2” pockets at the top for a curtain rod, plus a 58” x 14” valance, because it ain’t a window treatment without a valance, hoss. If you disagree, the valance would also make a nice scarf to wear while tailgating at Sooners games.

Charms, charms and more charms. Some say these little guys are quite charming. Small charms with magnets attached to small magnets originally used inside a speciality frame. The frames are all gone but the charms remain. Great for the fridge or kids locker. Bunches of different styles. We will pick at least 5 different in your assortment.

This decorative porcelain harlequin mask is a tchotchke-sized 4” tall x 3” wide, with a ribbon to hang it by. Glazed white with gold and rose highlights. It could be worn by a cat for Carnivale, but they really don’t enjoy dressing up, so probably best to just hang it on a wall.

Welcome to AS&SDOT, the better department of transportation. We provide all the highway, driveway, hallway, deck or bathroom crossing signs that the government neglects to post because they don't know what's really crossing your path. Mount your very own well-made indoor/outdoor critter-crossing sign. Each is metal, 12" square with a graphic depiction of the critter(s), realistic or otherwise, and each hangs diagonally from a pre-drilled 1/4" hole.

Like sweat pants. These self-adhesive and repositionable classroom aids will make geography and astronomy like two pieces of cake, or at least a box of cookies. You pick: the (2)-piece political/physical map of the United States, 36” wide x 24” tall when up; or the (22)-piece solar system, with pieces ranging from an 11”+ sun down to 1-3/16” stars and planets somewhat to scale. Put ’em up, take ’em down. They’re always there for you, like those old reliable sweat pants.

Minimalism meets functionality. When nothing is hung on it, our clear-plastic key-shaped key holder, 10" long and about 4" at its widest point, blends right into the wall behind it. Very subtle. (6) 7/8" long L-shaped hooks fit through countersunk 3/16" square holes. You assemble it and supply the screws for the (2) 1/8" countersunk mounting holes. In theory, when it's mounted against the wall, the hooks are held in place. In practice, we suggest a bit of model glue at the base of each hook. Functionality aside, it's a cool giant key!

Once upon a time you had to stuff your walls into a huge bucket if you wanted them tie-dyed, but now you just peel and stick these red-yellow-blue-green diagonal- pattern sheets on the wall and be grateful. Manufacturer says they're "Removable and Repositionable" but why would you ever want to? Our each is a package of (4) 11-1/2" squares.
