I know a store in Arlington that sells them.
Wipe your paws elsewhere!

My current home is already listed for sale including pics of my red, green, and lime porch that I promised to post on SR but never got around to doing. Since the listing includes my address, if anyone wants to view the pics, PM me and I'll send you the link.
Still refining my final offer with my realtor, so it hasn't been presented to the builder yet. Hopefully we'll be presenting it tomorrow and I'll know if it's been accepted, rejected, or if they made a counter offer.
I'll keep everyone posted on how things unfold.
p.s. LOVED the pink flamenco and the gnome links. I'd really make my mark on my new neighborhood if I moved in and promptly filled my yard with goddies like those!
The pink flamenco thing started out as a joke between my mom, my sister, and I. I used to hate them (and gazing balls); they're so tacky. So one day when I was at work, my mom and sister drove out to my house and filled the front yard with pink flamencos. Now every year someone in my family gives me a pink flamenco type item (necklace, xmas tree ornament, and my all time favorite a gazing ball WITH a pink flamenco) for Christmas.
My sister insisted that I place the gazing ball/pink flamenco combo in a place of prominance in my back yard so I could view it from my kitchen daily. But unfortunately, shortly thereafter a strong winter wind blew it over and it smashed to smither-eens. No, really.....
