Did I Mention that I Love LIzards?

My lizard denim jacket.
Sunday morning the light was just right
to take these photos 
and I decided to share them.

I've probably had this jacket for 20 years.
It was fun gathering my loot 
and making images of them.

I bought it at the Pecan Street Festival in Austin, TX
 Some blogger friends were recently discussing real Lizards
and I had to show off my little collection.

My pewter Horny Toad.

Stuffed Horny Toad with my pewter one.
 Wouldn't it have been sad to lose such a lovely 
collection of Lizard critters in the fires?

This Horny Toad blends in with the environment.

Normally this lizard sits in my closet and guards my shoes.
 I have a few more Lizards around one
of which is a silver bracelet
with a Horny Toad design.
I wear it quite often.

This one keeps my "thangs" safe.

This Lizard came from Port Aransas, TX and guards my front door.
 I suppose you have figured out that Lizzy Frizzfrock
evolved into "Lizard"
and that got the collection started 
many years ago.

A gathering of Lizards.
 The pillow was a gift from my mother-in-law.

This little fellow was made in Oaxaca.
 I don't collect these guys much anymore
because I have such a nice collection
and don't feel the need to add to it.

John Pruessner made this cup with lizard handle in 1976.
 I have a silkscreen print
with a lizard amongst agave plants.

Southwestern Lizard.

Hand made pot with 3 Lizards.

Standing as a pot the heads become the pedestal.
 Hope you enjoyed my little guys.

Another handmade from Oaxaca.
