Abstract

See full text

A weatherproof seasonal tree ornamentation includes a sheet of clear waterproof plastic which is dimensioned to fit around the trunk of a tree and which is imprinted with at least some facial indicia such as two eyes and a mouth. When the ornamentation is attached to a tree, the clear portion of the ornamentation blends in with the color of the tree trunk and the facial indicia appear to be part of the tree. The resulting effect of the ornamentation is to give the appearance that the tree is an animate character having a face. According to a second embodiment, the sheet of clear waterproof plastic is imprinted with indicia of a complete animate character, i.e. face, torso and legs. When the ornamentation of this embodiment is attached to the trunk of a tree, the clear portion of the ornamentation blends in with the color of the tree trunk. The resulting effect is the appearance of an animate character standing in front of the tree. According to a third embodiment, one or more sheets of clear waterproof plastic are imprinted with multiple indicia which can be arranged to form a complete animate character. The sheet(s) include indicia representing different faces, different torsos and different pairs of legs. The different faces, torsos and pairs of legs can be mixed and matched with each other to create multiple different characters.
