I have a thing for vintage fish. I did a challenge the other day on my collection of vintage ceramic fish (#219). My other favorite type of fish is my baby rattle collection.
It is a bit peculiar that a fish was such a popular figure for a baby rattle.
This fish differs with her two tone coloring.
I have quite a school of pink fish.
This is my largest fish rattle at about 7 inches.
I get a kick out of all the happy fish faces.
A happy rainbow of fish. These are definitely the type of fish I like to catch!
A short and sweet collection today. If you have an idea for a future collection challenge, leave me a comment and finish the sentence "Show me your collection of _____". A new collection swims this way each Tuesday.
Happy Day.
I found one of these at an estate sale last weekend! I thought it was one of those plastic candy containers. Nice to know that it's a rattle!

They look swimmingly in their tiny tanks.

What a cute little collection! They look darling in the fish bowls! Thanks for the smiles this morning.
Glad your computer is up and running again. Love seeing your posts in the morning :-)

I love how they look at gathered up in the fishbowl. That toy pump is pretty darn sweet, too!

Yay! you're back! I've never noticed these before, but I'm sure I'll find one very soon, now that you've pointed them out!

How about some background music? Three Little Fishies, Kay Kyser 1939.

I had a duck like these rattles. You fish probably float. I think the duck did.

Just keep swimming....I've never seen a fish rattle. I know because if I would have seen one - I would own it! Too cute. I love them all in the fishbowl.
