oh my lord, the millions of squirrel items that i have now. almost everybody i know has the little ty beanie baby squirrel, and a little while ago, my sister got me the itty bitty one that mc donald's has. other than that, i have a squirrel hand puppet, a squirrel calendar, a squirrel post card from ky that says "i'm nuts 'bout kentucky", i also have a copper squirrel cookie cutter, and not sure where, but my mom found me a copper cookie cutter in the shape of an acorn. cute cute. but my absolute favorite squirrel related item would have to be a full color poster of beatrix potters squirrel nutkin (it came in a pack of posters for all of his books) i've got it framed on the wall of my apartment. and although this isn't mine, for christmas, i bought my big a cute handcrafted door plaque that says "welcome to the nut house" and it's got a squirrel on it. ah well. 'nuf 'bout my squirrel addiction. =)

Hope the link works!

Also, try a search on Ebay! They have a few of the Anne Geddes squirrels!

I bought my lil sister's Anne Geddes squirrel at Target (a fine shopping establishment ;) ), but I think they sometimes carry them at Meijers and Kmart too.

I saw the pic! It is SOOOOOO CUTE!! Thanks!:) :) :D

I lost count of my squirrel collection at 105....I used to number each one and keep track in an AGD notebook, but that good intention has fallen by the wayside.

#1 is "Emily Butterfield's Skiouros," which was a favor at the 1972 convention in Scottsdale. It is a brass reproduction of a squirrel the way Emily drew it.

I have 'em in glass, crystal, wood, ceramic, porcelain, fabric, and even one carved from a piece of coal!

Coal Squirrel
 

Me too! Wonder if it's from the same block of coal. :D

I got mine at a gift shop in Helen, Georgia - a "touristy" German-like town. ((Correction..hubby says it was Mammoth Cave in Bowling Greek, KY.))

Hubby couldn't say much if I had 100* squirrels..not with his hundreds of books, cds/tapes/records.

Hi Girls,
I was just channel surfing and I saw that ECG commercial that I hadn't seen in forever---you know the one--"The Running of the Squirrels."

I'd forgotten how much that commercial cracks me up!!! :D

I can still hear it echoing in my head: "(heavy Spanish accent) As long as I have legs...I will run with the squirrels."

Too funny! Just wanted to share.

lol Maria,

I think that commercial first aired during the last Super Bowl! It's cute!

I like the Post-It Note Squirrel commercial...have you seen it?

Squirrel Commericals
 

I also love the one where the lady is putting food in the bird feeder and there are 3-4 squirrels coming out/hiding. I swear I've seen it a dozen times, but couldn't tell what they actually advertise, lol!!:) :D

Has anyone seen the Geico commercial where the squirrels are playing patty cake? Cracks me up every time!

Have you seen a commercial where the squirrels make a car crash and they high-five each other? lol

Hi Ladies!! I was searching around ebay this morning and came across a few adorable squirrel items that would look great at any AGD house!! :)

The first item is a Welcome Mat w/ gray squirrels... The item number is 596046812

The next was this ADORABLE laughing squirrel statue for the lawn. I absolutely loved this one... The item number is 1280993537

The last is a Squirrel Crossing sign... Item number 1014110371

Wishing you all a "Bright-eyed" and "Bushy-tailed" week!!
;)

I've seen the one where they high-five each other, and that cracks me up. Isn't that one a Geico commercial? But I haven't seen the other two. I will be on the lookout for them.

Girls, I have say that IMHO we must have the cutest, smartest, and most photogenic mascot out there! Hee hee! :D
