The Trading Post of Texas - Fun Texas Stuff

We at Texas Trading specialize in Texas items...it’s what we know and what we love best. We’re constantly listing new things, so be sure to check back often…our items aren’t necessarily inexpensive…they are of high quality and definitely something you will be proud to display in your home, your office, or to give as a gift.

Just some fun stuff about Texas: When you’re from Texas, people that you meet ask questions like, “do you have cows?” They all want to know if you’ve been to South Fork Ranch (they’ve watched the TV show, “Dallas”). Draw a map of our state in the dirt, anywhere in the world, and people will immediately recognize it as Texas.

Texas is a place where towns and cities shut down to watch the local high school football game on Friday nights. Texas is ocean beaches, deserts, lakes and rivers, hills and prairies. Small towns that still live the quiet country lifestyle and huge, metropolitan cities.

Each spring when the bluebonnets come out in their full glory, we drive miles and miles reveling in their beauty, while non-Texans zip down the road, not appreciating the fields of waving blue flowers, mixed in with bright red Indian Paintbrushes.

We’re known for our hospitality and our friendliness. People think we exaggerate about everything…we probably do…it’s a genetic thing... but we do it in fun and have fun with it.

If you were born in Texas, you’ll always be a Texan…even if you don’t want to be, there’s a little piece of Texas that lives on inside of you. If you’re a proud mis-placed Texan, you never hesitate to tell people, “I’m from Texas!”

For people who have visited our state, they’ve taken a little bit of Texas home with them…even if it’s nothing more than the memory of driving three days to get from one end of the state to the other.

Our state capitol is in Austin; our state flower is the Texas Bluebonnet. Our state tree is the pecan and our state bird is the Mockingbird. Our state motto is “friendship,” our state shrine is The Alamo and the State Mascot is…the armadillo (for real).

We are proud Associate Members of “Go Texan.” sponsored by the Texas Department of Agriculture. We are dedicated to providing as many Texas made products on our store as we can.

We are born ‘n raised Texans (6th generation)…and we’re proud of it. Thanks for visiting our Wagglepop store and for spending a “little time in Texas” with us.
