SMUDGE ($16)

This little charmer is not your ordinary snowman. He's the perfect winter companion for sophisticated urbanites, cool, a little goofy, and definitely a step or two off the beaten path, and he's guaranteed not to melt, regardless of the weather.

Smudge is 6 inches of postmodern fun, appropriate for any occasion. His Fimo head, with pushpin eyes, screw nose, and eyelet mouth and ears, is built onto a purchased black-and-glitter ornament. His cap is hand knitted from fun fur yarn.

Wooden ring stand included
