Custom Piggy Bank, Blue

Pennies from a grandfather and silver quarters from an aunt have a proper place to land. This blue bank sits sturdy on a bedroom shelf, waiting for spare change from deep pockets. His name comes painted clearly across the side, turning an ordinary savings jar into a keepsake he will keep long after he has outgrown the nursery.

Painted with his name

The letters are painted along the smooth blue side so everyone knows whose pocket money is tucked inside. It makes a thoughtful present for a new grandson, nephew or godchild who is starting his very first coin collection.

Sturdy nursery display

Set it on the low bookcase, the changing table or the windowsill. The broad feet keep it sitting upright without wobbling, even when heavy silver coins start filling the belly.

Slot for spare change

The wide coin slot along the top takes folded green bills, shiny quarters and copper pennies dropped in after Sunday dinner. It gives small hands an easy way to help tuck money away.

Emptying the savings

When it comes time to count the coins for the local bank or buy a treat, the bottom plug comes out cleanly. There is no need to break the piece to count his earnings.
