These are SO COOL!!! My grandmother used to collect them--she had a swan and several ducks which now festoon my parents’ guest room--and my parents bought a mouse for me, because they call me “Mouse.” But someone stole it when I had a party! Terrible behavior. Good thing it was years ago and I now have all-new friends. At any rate: I love the little boxes for letters and jewelry, I LOVE the pigs, and I think the miniature snakes ROCK. If my boyfriend and I ever move out of our cozy shoebox apartment I’ll start a collection in earnest.
