If you're looking for a unique and/or inexpensive gift, look no further than Alex's ClayPals. They're miniature creatures made from clay and then baked for preservation. They're crafted by a creative and enterprising young girl named Alex, who began the business when she was 9 years old. Be sure to check out Alex's ClayPals.

      began a few years ago when my daughter, Alex, started creating miniatures
      out of clay as a hobby. Most figures were less than an inch in size but
      had remarkable details: a fire-breathing dragon, a penguin listening to an
      MP3 player, or a dog holding a bone. </FONT></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.claypals.net/"><FONT face="Arial" size="2">As
      she developed her own techniques, she began to experiment more and started
      creating playful figures such as an earth worm (a worm crawling through a
      globe), a fire ant (an ant wearing a fire hat), or a hot dog (a Daschund
      in a bun). When she started showing her <B>ClayPals </B>to her school
      friends, everyone wanted to buy them. Thus a small business was born!</FONT></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.claypals.net/"><P align="center"><IMG height="225" width="225" border="1" src="http://www.claypals.net/images/pandawithtack.jpg" />
