"Play-purty"

(OP)
Any of you who didn't have grandparents in Appalachia (of the USA) may not be familiar with the term "play-purty" (play-pretty), but it's a term for a little bauble or child's plaything.  This is one I've been playing around with in the back of my head for a while ever since thread559-214976: Gordian Knot.  I thought others might enjoy playing with it too...

RE: "Play-purty"

Quite a common phrase in Northwest Louisiana, too.
