DH won't allow it, but I used to have a glow in the dark fishie <>< symbol and my graduation tassle. Occasionally a yankee car jar too! It's one area where I allow DH to indulge is neat freak side! We share the car so I guess it's fair. But then the car he usually drives is smelly to me.....so I guess if I take that car for something I better take some air freshener or roll down the windows!

I hang the Yankee Candle air freshener from the gear shift lever on the side of the steering wheel. And I have a couple of those neat little sunglass-holder clip thingies on the visors and then I have four of these little pom-pom ball Siamese cats that sit on a piece of hard cardboard with double-sided tape on the bottom - they rest on my dashboard in the middle. I have a Siamese cat window decal and my license plate is a vanity one that says "Meeze" - short for (duh!) SiaMEEZE. My car is purple (gray really, but in certain light, I'd swear it was purple) with a gray interior, so I call it my Lilac Point car. *ROFL* So, does this make me the crazy cat-car lady???

Movin' on up!
My rear window ledge holds numerous stuffed animals: cats, Dalmatians, tigers and leopards. I have some really neat Lisa Frank beanies, in wild colors.

On my mirror I have a lay (not sure how to spell it) a carabeener with a little stuffed animal rabbit (well just a head) and a keychain that says "big sis" on it. I have been told that there is too much and to take it down... but I don't. My sister used to have a keychain that said "lil sis" but it got stolen

I have nothing hanging from mine. I don't need anything else blocking my view. I have an electronic pass for the tollway, an electronic pass to get on my work campus, and the parking stickers for work too.

I have a small Dreamcatcher on my truck mirror and a Buddy Christ for the dashboard as soon as I get a dash covers.

I NEVER hang anything from mine. It is not safe. I was in a really bad car wreck about two and a half years ago. An F150 completly totaled my car when she rearended me speeding and not paying attention. My back and neck were hurt- i was put in physical therapy for months. When i had my old car- i had a gorgeous little prism hanging from a clear string on my rear view mirror. The impact of the wreck caused not only the back of my car to be totaled, but it was so bad the prism when through the front windshield completly shattering it everywhere- there was glass everywhere. So if ya'll hang things from your rearview mirror, not to be a damp wrag or anything- but please be careful what you hang- if you're in a wreck it could very well harm you. Also- it's not wise to put things like tissue boxes/ and other things on the very back of your car on top of seats- in a wreck- they can fly foward and hit you/hurt you.

I was stopped in a routine road block on a Saturday night and I received a $50.00 ticket for having something hanging from my mirror. (be careful when you're in NJ) That stuff came down...and was quickly replaced by an air freshner and a beaded hair ornament a friend made for me.
