Chiffy Holiday shopping

Post by Caroluna »

I love shopping by catalog! I snip pictures out and attach them to the refrigerator door. Then after a while I take them down and start putting up new ones. All the fun of shopping and none of the expense!

Just took these off the fridge, and thought I'd share.



For our Undisputed--

Image
Where everybody knows your name!

Whether it's your bar area, a rec room, or even a well-appointed garage, extend a warm, personalized Irish welcome to guests and "regulars" alike with this handsome Pub Sign!

Appointing you as the current proprietor (and bouncer!) of the irish pub, with any name appearing across the top.

Optional nameboard sign, which hangs below, can be personalized with any name(s) ("Barkeep & Bouncer" title as shown, please note will have (s) added if two names are listed). Nameboard sold separately below.

Our turn-of-the-century reproduction Pub Sign features solid wood construction and old-fashioned details give this sign an authentic "Celtic" air.

Session mates who who are ego-free and who always play in tune!

I looked and looked, but I couldn't find one with a bodhrán. Sorry Nano, I tried....

For Redwolf-

For Deej
Several of the ladies in the back of the boat are friends of mine from way back. Last time I talked to them they were complaining about how boring life has been since their pet sea serpent died :(

Image

Since they seem to like 'em surly, I gave them Deej's address and phone number. In the next week or so they'll show up with warm holiday greetings for him. :wink: :wink:

For Gonzo, Lambie, Cynth, and other piratical-types--

For Cranberry

I know you feel uncomfortable receiving gifts, but would you like to come for tea?

Oh, by the way, my apologies to the folks I missed-- :oops:

I was trying to find really nice pens to inspire Emline and Izzy as they did their writing, but haven't found just the right ones yet!

Most excellent! Free Time!! Now, if you could just point me to the option for nobody getting sick, I'd get a lot more done.

Thanky much, Caroluna! And a Very Merry ChristmaKwanzannukah to all!

Finally! Good birds.

I can stop collecting feathers for that better bird I was going to make to replace the naughty ones I have.

For Emline and Izzarina--
Santa's Fleecy Helper pointed me to these wonderful websites.
Ladies, there's too many beauties to choose from-- so I hope you don't mind getting gift certificates :wink:

Actually I used to party with the entire Viking Women's Boating Team. Fun bunch of girls. Many's the night we'd go carousing and pillaging. But the ladies in the front of the boat got eaten, sorry...
