E.M.
See if a metal worker on Etsy or Artfire would be willing to do custom work.
I'm making a windchime for my sister's garden since her son loved rockets. He loved them so much that they had one engraved on his headstone. Long story short, I'm looking for a small (maybe 3 inches) rocket that is preferably metal to put at the top of the windchime with red and orange star beads hanging below to look like it's blasting off. Anyone know where I might find something like that? I've looked on ebay with no luck.
I checked out matchbox.com and found something similar on Ebay. Thanks ladies!

Glad you found it! Just had to tell you I think you are incredibly thoughtful and artistic with this gift. Good luck and keep on persevering!
The Discovery store at the mall? Does the NASA space center in Houston have an on-line gift shop?
Look in craft stores like Hobby Lobby, stores that have collectables like trains, maybe a party store they might have one as a cake decoration.
Good luck I hope you find it.
