OK, I know it sounds like an odd title for a thread, but this is what I am looking for locally...

The are ornaments you add to trees to give them faces. We had a set but they fell down and the dogs chewed them up (anything on the ground is fair game to them!).

I know you can buy them online and on eBay, but I was hoping someone would know of a store or shop in San Antonio that might have them. I always prefer to support local businesses...

Cheers! M2

I've seen these at Rainbow Gardens on Bandera.....or the Garden Center on Bandera....can't remember which one now. They're right up the road from each other anyway. Both are great nurseries and have cool gift/novelty items like these tree faces.

If you don't have any luck locally, eBay has 'em - just search "tree face"!

Thanks, I'll stop by there this week. I miss the face we had, it really gave the tree "character" and a little mysticism as well!

Cheers! M2

I'd like to get some new ones. I have three left over from Halloween gone past. They glow in the dark when you shine a lite on them and scare the raccoons!

The last one would be PERFECT for the tree overlooking my neighbors yard with the dog that barks all day long!

It's possible your local Hobby Lobby may still have some. It's a seasonal "garden" item and they're being clearanced out at 66%. It's worth a look-see!
