Garden Faces - Need Ideas for Incorporating them in Garden

Northeast, AR(Zone 7a)

JaneMarieRose gave me three wonderful concrete garden faces that are nearly lifesize. I want to find a way to incorporate them into my garden somehow. I don't have a lot of space to lie them on the ground and create an entire body around them using the earth. So does someone have some other (space-saving) ideas?

Today I bought some fiber optic grass and some Bronzita grass as well as a pretty sedum that I think I can use for the hair on each one. What can I use for the head and how would I attach the face? I was thinking of a clay pot or something that I could put the grass in, but I don't know.

I don't have any trees (yet) so I can't mount them on a tree.

I thought I might get some kid's bib overalls and stuff them with straw or something to make a body and add some boots and have one standing around somewhere.

Has anyone done anything like this? Do you have pictures? I need a visual because I am lacking the creativity. I googled but didn't see anything like what I'm wanting to do. And I'm really not sure what I'm wanting to do (which might be part of the problem. LOL).

Here's a pic of the faces. I think they're cute as all get-out. I'd like to do them justice. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
