## Abstract

A pump, spray or suction actuated dispenser with a suction tube extending into a container, wherein the suction tube is used to mount a helix, and the helix carries at least one ornamental figure.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A fluid dispenser comprising a container, a suction tube, a dispensing tip, and a pump mechanism, said container being comprised of a transparent material, said suction tube being disposed within the container, said pump mechanism secured to the container, said pump mechanism being in fluid communication with the suction tube, said fluid dispenser further comprising:
a substantially helical coil attached to the suction tube;
ornamental figures attached to the substantially helical coil; and
wherein the ornamental figures are comprised of flowers and leaves.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The fluid dispenser of claim 1 wherein the substantially helical coil comprises a resilient material.

### Claim 3

A fluid dispenser comprising a container, a suction tube and a dispensing tip, further comprising:
a pump mechanism secured to the container, said pump mechanism being in fluid communication with the suction tube;
said suction tube being disposed within the container; said container being comprised of a transparent material;
a helix helically wound around the suction tube, said helix comprising a wire wound in a plurality of turns; and
at least one ornament within the container, said ornament secured to the helix.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The device of claim 3 wherein the ornament has a receiving bore sized and dimensioned to receive the wire within the receiving bore, and said ornament being slidably mounted on the wire by insertion of the wire into the receiving bore.

### Claim 5 (depends on 3)

The device of claim 3 wherein the ornament comprises three-dimensional representations of a flower.

### Claim 6 (depends on 3)

The device of claim 3 further comprising a plurality of ornaments comprising three-dimensional representations of flowers, wherein said ornaments are distributed along the length of the helix.

### Claim 7 (depends on 3)

The device of claim 3 further comprising a plurality of ornaments comprising three-dimensional representations of leaves, wherein said ornaments are distributed along the length of the helix.

### Claim 8

A fluid dispenser comprising a container, a suction tube, a dispensing tip, and a pump mechanism, said container being comprised of a transparent material, said suction tube being disposed within the container, said pump mechanism secured to the container, said pump mechanism being in fluid communication with the suction tube, said fluid dispenser further comprising:
a wire attached to the suction tube; and
at lease one ornamental figure attached to the wire.

### Claim 9

A fluid dispenser comprising a container, a suction tube, a dispensing tip, and a pump mechanism, said container being comprised of a transparent material, said suction tube being disposed within the container, said pump mechanism secured to the container, said pump mechanism being in fluid communication with the suction tube, said fluid dispenser further comprising:
ornamental figures; and
wire means for retaining the ornamental figures on the suction tube.
