What kind of relevant decorations do you have on your auto, bike, backpack, etc. ? I'll start with this nifty badge I recently added to my ride.

Attached to my head lamp is a beverage holder in the shape of a skull. The wee lad sitting between the handle-bar mounts is "Buddy" my designated drinker (as I am several years a tea-toadler" <misspelled on purpose>) Alas the "Bobsled" is a bit windy for a kilted ride with so many State Patrolmen ready to ticket anyone for any reason.

This is on the quarter glass of my Dad's race car (1962 Mini Cooper). It's not much, but worth sharing in my opinion.

A customer of mine, former airborne who now makes tactical gear, sent me this patch as a thank you. It's the only morale patch I rate, so it's the only one I wear.

Here's a photo of some of the stickers picked up and slapped on my old piping case. It mostly holds my music books now. Most are pertinent (or impertinent) to piping and a bit of heritage/culture. Can you guess which one my son stuck on the case?

I can relate, BluPiper!

This thread is 'right up my alley' because I have something of a sticker fetish, a badge fetish: when visiting anywhere I buy stickers and/or badges and when I get home I put them all over my cases.

Here's the old case I used throughout the 1980s and into the 2000s

front



rear



(the NBC Visitor sticker is from when I worked as a consultant on the Ellen show.)

This sticker on the side was picked up by a former bandmate who used to holiday every summer in Brittany; he said this depicts actual roadsigns used there telling motorists to not honk their carhorns. Cool that they use bagpipes as the very symbol of noise!



And it's not just stickers! I also buy the things the British call 'badges' and we Americans call 'patches'.

Here's my more recent pipe case, which I used to display badges picked up on my travels... on the end there you can see Hawai'i, Japan, and Newcastle



the front of this soft-sided case



this end is good ol' southern stuff



(I just noticed you can see the other case in the background...)

Recently I switched cases again, this time to a Pelican/Storm/Hardig style case. No stickers on that one yet!
