Has anyone seen ceiling ducks?

Looking for those duck bottom ceiling decorations...

We have a ceiling painted blue in my house, and my roommate is craving some of those ridiculous half-ducks that you can glue on to give the appearance you are underwater. Has anyone seen those? Looking online all I can find is very expensive custom models. I'm looking for something on the cheap here.

Buy some rubber duckies and slice them in half? Not quite the same effect, but since it's whimsy you're after anyway…

Are you talking about duck decoys? Any decent sporting goods store will have them.

I'm thinking ORthey is thinking of something like this (scroll down to the bery bottom). If all else fails, yeah, cutting up some rubber duckies (or stuffed/plush ducks) would achieve the same effect.

Or are you thinking about stickers/decals, ORthey? Two-dimensional or 3-D?

There's this, too, but since it's called "art" and no price is listed, I'm guessing it'll be to pricey for your needs.

Response by poster: Gator, that's essentially it. That's the problem I'm having is all these places either have no prices ( = expensive) or have expensive prices listed.

The problem with buying regular toy ducks is that they never have legs because generally they're supposed to just float on water.

Are these what you were looking for? The link game from Boing Boing.
