Cool Gift of the Day

What it is:
A hilarious and whimsical garden sculpture of two creatures making off with a gnome.
Why we love it:
We have a confession to make, we love garden gnomes. We know they're silly, and kitschy and they serve no purpose whatsoever, and yet, we love them just the same. So, we were horrified when we awoke one morning to discover that dreaded Gnome-Be-Gone's had come to steal our little friends in the night! Gone was our little hat-wearing friend, never to be seen again.
The Gnome-Be-Gone statue may not be the right gift for someone who loves gnomes as we do, but for anyone with their tongue planted firmly in cheek they make a fabulous present. These two sneaky little guys have a gnome in their clutches and are making off with him in the night, or day, depending. Maybe they plan to eat him, or sacrifice him to their evil metal masters. Who knows? Either way it makes for a hilariously unexpected bit of yard art.
