New Chilly Willy T-Shirts

I recently had to retire my lone Chilly Willy t-shirt as it just wore out after many years of wearing it. But as I mentioned in that post, I had ordered new Chilly Willy shirts. And here they are.

I have yet to wear the new shirts, but they are in my regular rotation of t-shirts so they will be going out in the public to show people my favorite cartoon penguin.

My collection of penguin items

This is the display of what I have collected over the years in penguins.

So many that I have tried to fit into the bookshelf cubbies. There is an official Chilly Willy stuffed in there.

The latest is at the top right on the very top shelf. My sister-in-law does crochet and made that for me for my upcoming 60th birthday next week.

This is most of them. I know I have others that are in boxes still.

RIP Chilly Willy T-Shirt

This shirt lasted a long time

I do not recall how long I’ve had this Chilly Willy t-shirt, but it has to be at least 12 years. Maybe longer.

It finally wore out enough to where it is not wearable anymore. At least in public.

I ordered two new Chilly Willy t-shirts and once I get them, I will post pics of them here.

Chilly Willy Christmas 2020

Kiss Me

Blogger friend Kapgar has been wanting to see my Chilly Willy collection. I thought starting with the Christmas ornaments and a snow globe would be a good place to start.

There were a series of these ornaments. I thought I had more than 2, but I guess not. Or perhaps the others got lost in the various moves I’ve done over the last 20 years.

Happy Holidays

You can’t see it from the front view, but the red hat round ball broke off sometime ago. You would think over the years sitting in the box for 11 months, these things would still be intact. But I guess maybe it got knocked off the tree and hit the floor.

I really can’t recall when I got these. I want to say it’s been the better part of 20 years. There are no dates on the boxes. And they are worn from being taken in and out of the storage container they are kept in, even thought it’s only twice a year.

Snow Globe – Chilly

The snow globe was a good find. I believe I found this one at a Christmas gift shop. The front side shows Chilly Willy…

More Coming Soon

I have other Chilly Willy items that I’ve not posted out here before. Once I find them and take pictures, I will add another blog post.
