Global Shakeup

Described as a �World of Snowdomes and Float Pens,� this online shopping site lets you browse through countless snowglobes and pens with scenes floating and purchase them for yourself or your loved ones. They present themselves as a family business and offer to buy your old snowdomes. As you probably know, snowdomes or globes are those little plastic or glass tchotchkes that you shake to make some sort of snow float around in the slightly viscous liquid surrounding some plastic doo-dads. This site has them from all places and representing many cultures. I even found one of Julius the Funky Monkey. Perhaps you can find the perfect Christmas gift here for the person who loves kitsch.
