    Another "too cute..cannot leave these..." attack at thrift.

    Was thinking there must a zillion of them on Ebay, but can't find any. Approx 1 1/2 inches high. What keywords am I missing?

    Thanks!

    You could call them Alice, Gina, Hepzibah....

    They are adorable. I searched for "miniature Mexican tiles" and see lots of them but they're all decorative, not figural.

    Have now found a few similar by searching "Tonala minature wall decor". Thanks! The few I found that were small were 2x2", and these are even a tad under 1 1/2", so haven't come up with the exact match, but probably were available in different sizes.

    Could be Christmas ornaments or some kind of miniature set I guess?

    I think would be so cute displayed together if you had a nice spot.
