Our Biggest Sale of the Year is Here!
Here's a great way to practice what you preach if you're a recycler and a dog lover! There was no way I'd pack this up at the end of the holiday season and not get to see it for another year. The sunny yellow and happy dog faces make for a great spirit lifter and can be used as a gift in itself or as an ornamental bauble on a gift box. It would make a great "visiting someone at the hospital" gift since it's not breakable and can be hung anywhere to brighten someone's day.
