you must admit...a giant blown-up globe of a huge smiley snowman waving hello is a permanent snow storm is FASCINATING. But not only am i fascinated by the size of this snow globe but by the variety of people who purchase this $199 piece of Christmas decor. There is a huge part my Christmas lovin spirit that would like to sacrifice to money to simply to see if there was a way to fit inside this enormous snow globe to live in a permanent snow ball. And considering the fact that I do not own a kitchen table, the dining room would be the perfect location to begin spreading a little Christmas cheer.
And if you are thinking...that thing is TACKY.. well some may think so but i do recall a large number of these huge snow globes parked on lawns in rather refined neighborhoods last Christmas. And as I began chatting with the Wal-Mart store manager apparently there was such a high demand for them this year that 14 people were on a waiting list to receive them before the season arrived. So as of now I do not know if they belong in a trailer park or beside a driveway with a parked BMW .
Some what of a mystery that I find fascinating.
But this is one thing I do know. Somehow someone was aware of my obsession with snow globe and now a miniature version of this fascinating art work wound up as the current decor on my newly assembled dresser. Did I mention Chris was cool?!?!

boo on blog spam.
tacky? yes. awesome? yes. i went to target the other day and was overwhelmed by tacky little splendors that i need to have. and of course i thought of you. and i cant wait to sing "merry christmas, happy holidays" at the top of my lungs.
i've already been singing with n'sync...but i have to admit, i dont think i want a snowglobe...but ya know, if chris can read your mind and grab one for you-i guess he's pretty cool
So...I definately just put up my tacky Christmas decor across my apartment last night! So who cares if it's tacky if it gets you in the spirit of the season!! YAY FOR CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!
i think snow globes are very christmassy... when in moderation they are even lovely to have, although i can't tell exactly how big that one in wal mart is from the picture... just dont be like the lady on TLC who had 250 snow globes and wanted them to organize them all... merry christmas :)
I'm breathless just thinking of doing the MC hammer to our favorite holiday quartet. gosh I need to go running. You up for it?
to clear up any confusion..the snow globes in wal-mart about 20 feet tall and about 200 feet wide...i could stand inside it! like i said enormous...but the one on my dresser is about the size of basketball...hope everyone has an accurate mental picture now.
Dianne - you are a doll. You made my day with the snow globe. Thanks for the laugh.
Dianne- About Chris....I just had a feeling this might happen!!! So excited for you!
i agree with han...cant we fry a turkey and hang it from a noose in the frontyard and maybe invite 40 of our college friends over for a suprise bday dinner???? cant we??? please please please!!!!
