What's hanging on your rear view mirror?

For the past 25 years or so, this guy has ridden on the dash of my car. It was a present my friend made for my grandma, who just loved squirrels. She had a little squirrel that would come to her door every day and she would give it a peanut butter cracker. She called him Chucky, so that’s what this guy is called. He’s made out of pipe cleaners. When my grandma died, he was the only thing I wanted, and my brother took the stuffed squirrel that he gave her. They both ride in each one of our cars in honor of grandma.

Lemme grab a pic later, I got a candle that has got to be half a century old, if not older

It used to be in my grandparents living room, and when grandma passed (decades after grandpa did) I got it

I found out later most of my cousins also wanted it, I guess it always appealed to us young kids, but I just happened to be the first one to ask for it (in fact, as I'm writing this, i think I will put it in my will to go to my cousin when I die)

(Added a picture, that candle is probably 6,7 inches tall)

Hei matau.jpg

an abalone hei matau. It used to bang around in my bimini on a long commute to Blue Dot on many a sketchy halibut opener. It's for good luck and safe returns.
 
Nothing.... I don't like things hanging from my mirror or key chain :)
 
I have a set of Han Solo's dice that I got for Christmas last year.
