A Few Popular Texas Souvenirs

By Helene Norris


Various groups of people are interested in Texas souvenirs. Maybe you live in Tejas and want to brag to your friends who live elsewhere. Winter Texans are likely to choose items to carry back to family and friends when the seasons change. Those people who are visiting the area for the first time also want to pick up items in order to remember the highlights of their trip. Here are some ideas that will spark your imagination.

A souvenir is an object that serves as a reminder to bring to mind an event, person or place. When you want to remember something about the State of Texas, its people, or the activities you enjoyed while visiting the Lone Star State, picking up just the right item is not a casual choice. You should match the selected item with the interests of a person who will be receiving the gift.

There are some foods that are associated with Texan culture. Almost everyone has heard of Texan-style chili. It is matched by barbecue beef, pork, or even goat. Some business that specialize in barbecue will arrange for shipment of genuine barbecue sauce anywhere in the world. For a slightly different type of Tex food, check out cactus in various forms, chipotle, dried peppers and pecans.

Some items that serve as memory joggers are also functional. Examples of utilitarian items that will remind you of Texas include place mats and coffee mugs. You might choose decorative coasters or a key ring. When you pick this type of item, you will remember the fun of visiting the state every time you use your car keys, or drink a cup of coffee.

A star appears on many souvenir items from or about Tejas. You can find it on everything from clothing to furniture. The image is related to the nickname of "The Lone Star State". It has been used in several different flag concepts from as early as 1819. The current design dates back to 1839. Several different meanings have been ascribed to the name and the image. It may be considered to represent the wish for statehood, or that it is the only Mexican state that sought to uphold rights under the 1824 Mexican constitution.

If you want information about the state, it can become a souvenir as well. You can select books, magazines, or newspapers to describe the people and culture of the area. There are also DVDs and CDs. A somewhat different choice is that of maps showing the changing geography of the area.

Perhaps you would like to choose a funny gift, or at least a whimsical one. Consider a toy armadillo, or a bank in the same shape. There are candies shaped in stars or in the outline of the state.

Regardless of the age group or interests of the giver or the recipient, there are ideal Texas souvenirs available. You can order online, or have the fun of shopping for items at one of the many vendors locally. So long as you take time understand the person who will be receiving the gift, he will enjoy the memory of Texas as much as you have enjoyed finding it.
