I saw this cute new Small World ornament today (http://twitpic.com/du4zf8). Both the star burst on the right ear and the clock face on the left ear spin.

They also have this new antenna topper for St. Patrick's Day (http://twitpic.com/du4zi3).

That ornament is darling!! I miss my antenna toppers. I got a new car that doesn't have an antenna. My last one didn't either so I would just glue a spring one to my dash. This car doesn't really have a place to do that. They always made me happy :).

I'm going to steal your idea TTFN92! I love my antenna toppers, but I only see them briefly each day. Having one on the dash would be fun!

I saw an It's a Small World ornament similar to this one when I was at DLR during Thanksgiving week. When I went back to buy it a few weeks later, I couldn't find it anywhere! I was back at Disneyland a few weeks ago and I checked in several stores and didn't see this one. What store did you see it at? I love it!! I have been collecting IASW things/pins for a while.

I've bought them online. It's a spring in a little stand. The stand is sticky but doesn't last long so I super glued it. I had no problem getting it off when I sold my car. I just googled something like: antenna topper spring dash mount. There are a couple different antenna ball stores that sell them.

Antennas seem to going to yesterland, huh? My new car doesn't have an antenna, either. I have tons of those adorable toppers, though.

I can't remember where I heard of this idea, but I've made a 'bouquet' out of them. I bought wooden dowel rods (just the right width to fit the holes) and cut pieces in varying lengths. Then I put toppers on each of the dowels and put them in a vase (or actually a DCL souvenir 'glass' from the sailaway party).

At the start of each month, I create a new bouquet with toppers appropriate for the month. I keep one on my desk at work and have another in the family room at home. It makes me happy and I get to enjoy many toppers at once.

LacyBelle -- This is such a great idea!! I do still have an antenna on my car but I sometimes worry about someone taking my topper cuz it's happened before. :mad:

Thanks, Joseph!
I wish I could remember where I heard it so I could give credit. It was something I wanted to do for a few years and never got around to going out and getting the dowels. When I bought a new car and could no longer use the toppers on that car, it gave me with push to do it. :D

I know what you mean about fear of someone deciding they need your topper more than you do (grrrr). Thankfully, I never had that happen, but always made sure to buy two of everything...just in case. Now, it just allows me to have two vases decorated for each month.

Figured I'd just add to this thread rather than start a new one.

Found some more cute ornaments today. This is the front of the Steamboat Willie ornament (http://twitpic.com/dygef8), and this is the back (http://twitpic.com/dygehl). This is a Valentine's ornament (http://twitpic.com/dygeje). And this is an Easter ornament with Donald (http://twitpic.com/dygele).

They also have decorated caramel apples for St. Patrick's Day and for Kermit (http://twitpic.com/dyfki6), in celebration of the upcoming film "Muppets Most Wanted".

After having a topper stolen from my vehicle, I now put on a cheap one. I put all my cool ones on top of pens and place them in a small pot full of beans. This way they are displayed to see on my kitchen counter and I have a fun pen handy.
