Fiona Frightcicle


Fiona Frightcicle has just finished decorating her tree for her favorite holiday, Easter. All her little Easter Egg ornaments are in place and now she just needs the finishing touch, a chocolate bunny tree topper. The only problem is, Fiona is just a tad too short for the job so she's desperately hoping that the tree will bend just a tad farther so she can reach it because she's precariously perched upon an unstable Easter egg.

Fritz Frightcicle

Just in time for St. Patrick's Day, Fritz Frightcicle found a bucket of gold coins and has just finished decorating his tree. And now he wants to finish his decorations with his favorite tree topper. A large Shamrock. There's only one problem. He's not quite tall enough and the toadstool he's standing on just doesn't get him quite hight enough. He'll just have to wait until the next breeze brings the top bough a little lower.



Fritz can be found at

He sells for $75.00
