Hanging Animal Ornaments

Thursday January 12, 2006
Adorn your finished cocktails with these fun plastic animals that hang on the rim of the glass. Giraffes, donkeys, elephants, mermaids and other animals are included in the variety pack that you can pick up at most online barware stores. You'll be surprised how your "mature" friends come out of their shells and regress to the days of talking to and playing with plastic toys. Try out some of the other fun finishing touches for cocktails as well and build a theme for your next cocktail party.

I can’t find these for sale anywhere! Would you be able to recommend a store that carries them?

Thanks!

I’m getting the feeling that they are not produced any more.

I’ll keep looking, but for now…Cocktail Monkeys are everywhere and I found the pink elephants, black cat an devil at Perpetual Kid.

I like the assortment though, and I’m almost out so I’ll do what I can to find them if they’re out there.

Anyone else?

Thanks! They are surprisingly hard to find, aren’t they? I did find a company that carries them–Alpen. But I guess they’re in Australia and don’t sell direct.

I’ve put an email into them. Let’s see where that gets us. Otherwise, just have to keep looking.

Just heard from Alpen and they don’t supply to the public. There is another Australian company http://www.whap.com.au/, but they don’t ship internationally.
