New art glass at Ann’s is one of those things you buy just because you like it.  Large vases in organic shapes have glorious color and patterns!  Stand them alone as sculptures or use them for floral arrangements for a spectacular display.   From $128 to $240 each:

The next-best thing to “gone fishin’ ” is artwork that shows the catch.  Charles Leonard’s giclee prints do the trick.  Wouldn’t Dad love one of these for Father’s Day?  Make him happy; shop at Ann’s!  (Click on the images below to see them enlarged in your browser.)

Update Nov 15, 2011:  Ole Sparkly found a home!  But come to Ann’s and visit one of his friends!

Wanted:  one very good home with appreciative owner who would cherish and adore Ann’s Toucan.  His name is Very Sparkly and he’s no trouble at all to keep.   Loves to be the center of attention, but is the quiet type.  Definitely one of a kind.  Won’t you make him yours for Christmas???

12,370 pieces of Swarovski crystals cover Very Sparkly, Ann's toucan. He's cast, polished, and rhodium plated on a crystal base. 22" high, $6,500.

Wine and whimsy!  New oil paintings just arrived and are up.  These clocks alway put a smile on your face; whimsical and arty, everyone has a favorite!

 And one more Texas truth:  we definitely have more fun here, especially at Ann’s!  Come visit!

Truly good Texas and western gifts are not as common as the airport giftshop variety, but Ann’s Fine Gifts hits the mark with unusual and grand Western finds.  Wall art, paintings, and hangings, old maps, armchairs, even a saddle-style barstool are some of the newest arrivals.   Giddy-up on over to Ann’s and have a look.  We even serve Texas coffee, no foolin’.  (Who else would name their coffee “Bubba’s Texas Brew”???)
