When it comes to one-stop shopping for tacky holiday decorations, Lot Less Closeouts has all the bases covered. Bonus: many of these things are Pink! Look at these tiny Pink Christmas Tree-shaped ornaments I spotted on my most recent hunt for Pink Things! Just look at them!
This matching Bracelet and Brooch are composed of a vibrant rainbow of resin Lipsticks that humorously assert the decorative nature of cosmetic products. While both by Karl Lagerfeld and the jewelry designer Ugo Correani were known for their postmodern sampling of objects and ideas, the tendency to inflate scale in order to invest drama was a particular strength of Correani.
In the words of Lagerfeld, “He has a magic touch. No one can compare to him . . . He’s modern, not afraid to be oversized, but with the right eye for proportion.”

You may remember Mayor McBlob from his previous appearance on The Gig in This Post. Well, he’s back, and he’s this week’s Pink Thing. This time, he has a couple of his friends with him: a Pink Mayor McBlob Resin Pin and a tiny Mayor McBlob Phone Charm, which is too cute to be believed.
Mayor McBlob was created by a fantastic lady artist named Sciamellis, who is located in Santiago, Chile, but she sells her creations online via her LoveCats CollectiblesEtsy Store. If you want to do some shopping and maybe give him a home, sometimes she even offers free shipping!
