Gurgle pots

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Sharon Lee's Virtual Assistance

Good morning everyone-I had never heard of a gurgle pot before reading about them by my dear friend Gayle Rich Boxman

She gives them as closing gifts as well as gifts to friends and others I am sure. So what is a gurgle pot? A Gurgle Pot is a unique and whimiscal water pitcher that makes a gurgling sound while pouring. Gurgle Pots are a perfect drink pitcher for your table, or makes a charming vase. Gurgle pots hold all of your favorite beverages. Gurglepots make fun and fabulous gifts for weddings, housewarming, closing gifts, hostess, bridal shower, mothers day, birthdays, Christmas, teachers and more.

They come in an array of colors and this is what they look like

Now there is a different kind of gurglepot out there that some of you may have. I happen to have one but mine is somewhat different than the pic above and they are for a SELECT clientele. My client is totally fascinated by hers and every times it gurgles she rushes over to it trying to figure out why it gurgles. She will even stick her foot in it to see if she can catch the gurgle. It is hilarious to watch my client with the gurgle pot. So what does my gurgle pot look like and who is the lucky client

The fascinated client-Shadow

Shadow

The only thing she likes better than her gurgle pot is her food dish and she wouldn't pose for me drinking from her gurglepot when there is food in her dish.

Good morning, Sharon -- I've seen the gurgle pot over the years without knowing it's name -- I really do learn something everyday -- and it's still early here on the West Coast.  I hope you have a great Saturday.

Sharon,

I had no idea that Shadow has a gurgle pot...I bet she would be fascinated by the noise the other one makes also.  Happy Saturday, A

Alexandra-I got it for her because she drinks quite a bit of water and this makes it easier and it is so fun to watch her when it gurgles and I am sure she would love the other one but she probably would break it trying to find the gurgle. Happy Saturday to you and Ron.

Hi Sharon, I was all involved and then caught a glimpse of yours and bursted out laughing. Before I saw that phot, I was all set to ask if putting a carbonated beverage in a gurgle pot if it would sound like a belch when you poured, LOL. Too funny!

Rebecca-It is fun to watch her because it totally amazes her. I had never heard of the other kind of gurgle pots either.

William-I am glad you captured the reason for the post. Thank you.  That is a good thought with the carbonated beverages. That could be possible. I will have to ask Gayle. Smiling

Leave it up to you Sharon to have that "specialized" gurgle pot for Shadow. I do remember that closing gift idea of Gayle's but yours is pretty special for the pet lover as well.

That's a riot Sharon - I know Gayle's having trouble logging in to AR - she'll be delighted to read your post about Gurgle Pots. Shadow is sure enjoy her version... :)

Gary-I know Shadow loves her but her trying to get that gurgle is priceless.

Joan-Thank you. I am sure the real estate clients love their kind.

Debb-Watching Shadow is a riot and she has tipped it over a few times playing with her turbo scratcher. I hope Gayle will get a kick out of it as well.

Sharon~oh I love this!! A GurglePot by any other name...Gary W. sent me a link last nite, but I STILL couldn't get into AR--how frustrating!  I had to close out everything, close down the computer and start fresh. I think the one you picked is close to the color of the one I chose for Ron and Alexandra after they helped me with my consulting work for our home to be put on the market.

Thank you, Debb, for letting Sharon know that I wasn't ignoring her.
And, I know all about those cats not wanting to pose--unlike some dogs who always like to show their best side!

Kasa-my silly girl

Hi Gayle-When your computer isn't working or being able to login to AR or any where is frustrating. Glad to see you being able to get it up and running. I bet Ron & Alexandra loved their gurglepot. Love the pic or Takoda. As you will notice in the pic of Shadow that is what I got the great butt shot. I knew you weren't ignoring me. Never crossed my mind.  Glad you liked this. You were the inspiration behind it.

I have one like yours, Sharon, and Shayna enjoys it too. She tries to bite the top part when it gurgles.

Toni-So does Shadow. She will wrap her paws around it trying to get the gurgle but mostly she sticks her paw in it and then shakes her paw and water goes flying.
