Refrigerator magnets
Sloth, monkey and frog magnet from Costa Rica |
My mother hated these cheap bric a brac. Her style was upscale. So much so that she would have her own designer Christmas tree in the house every year in addition to our other tree which featured the kids' handmade ornaments, too common for her luxurious spruce. So, when I got my first place, I immediately bought a fake, plastic, white Christmas tree. Later, Karen gave me one of those cheesy rotating wheels with colored cellophane, backlit with a lightbulb. It would make the tree change colors as the wheel spun. It's one of my favorite Christmas decorations.
Shaka refrigerator magnet and bottle opener Karen gave me. |

The Scottish bagpipe magnet temporarily affixed to the refrigerator. Yes, it really does play "Scotland The Brave." |
