Soooo, if I wanted some hastily-painted glass birds to hang from my oh-so-tasteful tree, I could choose six for

£12.99 from amazon

£15 from cox and cox

or

wait for it

£24.95 from pedlars

Hmmmmmmm, let me think. Hmm

I particularly love the way the pedlars birds look faintly embarrassed to be there. Grin

Normann Copenhagen where have you been all my life?

FreudianFoxPouffe · 25/11/2010 16:40

Tadaaaaaa :)

TartanFoxCube · 25/11/2010 17:08

Oh that's very good, Freudian Grin

Rockin, that bag would be ideal. I think a career change is in order.

I don't understand those hangers, Portly. Do they do anything? I guess only a Neanderthal would need to ask that Wink

Have we marvelled at the beauty of the swan?

SuePurblybiltByElves · 25/11/2010 17:39

Not to mention the ring that just screams what were you thinking class:
fighting bears

My eyes!

Hullygully · 25/11/2010 17:49

The sheer unmitigated marvellous joy of it

30andMerkin · 25/11/2010 17:51

OMG. The Swan. It's like the bastard offspring of Antiques Road Show and an Athena poster.

FreudianFoxPouffe · 25/11/2010 18:38

I disagree, the swan looks like one of the scary costumes in the original Wicker Man film. Hence we should burn it.

FreudianFoxPouffe · 25/11/2010 18:40

Seriously though those guys are absolute GENIUSES. Anyone who can make money selling that crap clearly has superior mental prowess. They deserve a nobel prize in, um...

lalalalalala

Unprune · 25/11/2010 18:49

Every time I post a pithy comment it won't post, yet 'lalalalala' does. hmmm

Unprune · 25/11/2010 18:50

Oh stop it Mn!

Unprune · 25/11/2010 18:51

I like the Swan

Unprune · 25/11/2010 18:51

but

Unprune · 25/11/2010 18:52

the price explains their lack of profit-turning

I've been hobbled or something

Ilythia · 25/11/2010 19:06

Ooh, I love a pedlars thread!

That swan looks like phoebe's mad doll witch pictures from friends.

Most Disturbing Pedlar Thing Ever.

pirateparty · 25/11/2010 19:11

Discovering Pedlar's on MN was a life-changing moment for me... I had no idea anything like that existed. I alternately cried with laughter and stared with open-mouthed horror the first time I saw it.

And this is a perfect example of why I'll never understand some people's taste. I am so pedestrian Hmm

That tartan fox cube is certainly their finest offering though, IMO. And I am very proud to have inadvertently inspired a name change

pirateparty · 25/11/2010 19:12

OMG the swan, the swan, the swan.......

That is truly incredible. How did I not spot that before?

madamimadam · 25/11/2010 19:12

I've been knocking out those Norman Copenhagen wall hangings for years. If only I'd known!

If anyone would like an original madamimadam wallhanging, I have a limited edition of 250 or so.

DH has just admitted he quite likes the pigeon lamp Shock

pirateparty · 25/11/2010 19:26
Shock

Maybe I am just terribly pedestrian...

Unprune · 25/11/2010 19:27

I LOVE the pigeon lamp and it's only four quid over rrp Shock they re losing their touch
