What kind of clarinet accessories do you own?
Any related behind story?
Mine is this: a key holder with a clarinet cross-stitched . It was a gift from my only and dear student - more of a duet partner, to be frank. I don't qualify to teach..- who is a cross stich shop owner.
It makes me happy whenever I open the car door.

I have the Doctor's clarinet lapel pin... somewhere... I moved recently and I need to remember where I packed it.

That's a VERY nice keyring.
I have a clarinet puzzle that I'm working on and will frame once it's finished. Will take a photo when it's done.

I went into an embroidery shop with my wife and walked out with a needle which is designed to help thread another needle.
I use it as a spring hook assistant. It works for the really tight spots that a regular spring hook can't get into.

While making barrels, I decided to make a wine stopper...but since I was between grenadilla shipments, I used oak....and, well, you can see where the stopper appropriated wound up.

Are clarinet-decorated neckties to be included here? I now have 2, an older, long one with a Bb [Buffet?] on it. and since Chr 04, a shorter with an eefer on it, an unusual design for the A/G# keys! They do "project" and create divertimento !! Have a sax and an oboe pin/tietac. Prob need a sweat-shirt w: bass cl on it, available?? Don
Thanx, Mark, Don

I'm not sure where I got it from, but I have a framed picture in my office of a clown sitting on a crate playing a clarinet. I think it is awesome!

I have a cardboard box that originally held CLARINET brand sugar cookies.
The cookies were pretty awful, but there's a nice clarinet portrait on the box, with the instrument reclining lasciviously on a tray surrounded by cookies.

I have the Doctor's clarinet pin and gave one to each one of my girls in our trio too. They make a nice gift. I also have one I got in Branson Mo. that's a little bit bigger, is black with gold keys and has "diamond" rhinstones as accents. It's really dressy. I loved Lucy's key chain and do cross stitching too so I wonder where the pattern came from. Very neat.
When I was in high school the d'Ashiki (sp?) shirts were kind of in style then. Well, my then boyfriend but now husband, wanted to make me a d'ashiki shirt so he went out and got some muslin fabric, cut it from a pattern, sewed it together and then painted in the coolest design all over the shirt. He painted music notes on a staff, a treble clef and a great big clarinet on the center, back of the shirt and I just didn't see the wonderful art value in it at the time. I would give anything to have that same shirt back today. I don't think he could replicate it again. It was a once in a lifetime item. He is a really good artist so it would have been something unique to get to have that he did for me. I'm pretty sure I hurt his feelings when I told him my mom sent it to the Goodwill. He didn't make me anything else after that. ![[frown]](http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/smileys/smilie2.gif)

An interesting variety of goodies ! I forgot to mention my wrist-watch, a gift from our kids some time back. It's glass [pl] cover flashes a musical "pattern" when tilted, [what is that word??], which has a treble clef "S' some 1/8 th notes, the staff has ONLY 4 ledger lines tho, so I challenge viewers with "what's wrong with this" !

Thanx, Mark, Don

A friend and I were recently given tie clasps in the shape of a clarinet. They appear to be gold-plated and in an old-style case in mint condition. Our benefactor told us that Benny Goodman had them made to give to selected friends who attended his first Carnegie Hall Concert. Ours were not among those given away, but came from the surplus of the production run.

I may have mentioned this elsewhere, another Chr gift was a framed Norman Rockwell, showing a long-haired [gray] violinist looking into a music store window, at a 1930's silver alto sax, on a stand, [looks like a Conn -Naked Lady] with a "wistful" expression. I call it my "It Might Have Been". Don
