gurgle pot!

Ever heard of a" Gurgle Pot"?  Well, they are just, ummm, nifty! A "Gurgle Pot"  literally 'gurgles' when you tilt it to pour!!  Cool, eh?  I think so.  They are also sort of expensive, (I think) unless you just 'looove it' of course, and/or really plan to use it often.  I looked at some in an artsy boutique a year or so ago...I am a pisces, so fish things kind of appeal to me in an astrological sort of way...anyhoo, I picked out a green one and then noticed the price, gasp! I don't really want to pay $60 for a fish shaped pitcher.  Oh, well...
Recently at an estate sale of a well traveled couple, I spotted one with the lovely price of $3!!! yes THREE DOLLARS!  LUCKY ME!  More my speed for a quirky little item that gurgles when you pour water from it!! It was also green, but not a happy green.  Spray paint to the rescue!  I used Valspar (first time with this brand).  What do you think?  Would you pay $60 for a new one?

I saw these somewhere just recently, but I don't remember where. Now it will drive me crazy. LOL And no, I wouldn't pay $60 for something that I would end up not using.

Great find. I saw one of these at Goodwill once and I didn't pick it up. So cute. I just stumbled on your blog and I think I'm going to enjoy following you.
