These struck me as whimsically funny.
"FlaminGo Away" and "Gnome-Be-Gone"
Wonder if they work around the office too?

Those creatures are funny. I imagine they would make great public art if you planted them around in the general public.

Haha, those are awesome, I definitely need one or two for my yard. Maybe they can do away with dog crap for me :D.

ROFL!
I have a pink plastic flamingo in my cube. (Long story.) I'm way in the back of the office, so I have it sticking up over the cube wall. I just tell folks, when you come into the suite look for the flamingo. I'm under it. :)

For years, I've wanted to have a throw carpet version of the poker playing dogs leading into my caveicle.

Urst, you can buy the fabric for cheaps! (http://www.heartwoodconnection.com/detail/googlebase/324)
And if it gets cold you can put it on your lap as a blanket :)

That is awesome! Except for the fact that I wouldn't know how to make a rug, nor have the patience for it. ;)

omg I want those!!!
I hate pink flamingo yard ornaments ... and those little gnomes are kinda creepy ... my exinlaws loved them of course ... the gaudier the better. :D
My grandmother loved them too ... as they aged I had to repaint them every summer for her. I dreaded that job.

Urst, maybe you could settle for this?

I've never actually seen a flamingo in a yard so I don't find it tacky. Maybe if lots of tacky yards I've seen had them, then I'd find them tacky. I want stuff in my yard.

Nice try Buda, but not quite the same. Not everyone would notice the mug, but pretty much everyone coming into my "nook" would see the carpet. ;)
I appreciate the thought, however. :)

That fabric is fleece...good for throws and pajamas, not so good for rugs...
