                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



To the Administrative Committee and Participants of
Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. Stock Purchase Program



We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. Stock Purchase Program as of December 31, 2002
and 2001, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of Tandy Brands
Accessories, Inc. Stock Purchase Program as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and
the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.

                                DECEMBER 31, 2002

A. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

The following description of the Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. Stock Purchase
Program (the "Plan") sponsored by Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. (the "Company")
provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan
document for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.

GENERAL

The purpose of the Plan is to assist the employees of the Company in building
personal net worth and to encourage ownership in the Company by providing a
Plan for regular investment in the Company's common stock.

Employees who are of legal age, continuously employed for six months or more,
and work a minimum of twenty hours per week are eligible to participate in the
Plan. Once an eligible employee reaches two years of continuous service,
participation in the Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. Employees Investment Plan is
required to continue participation in the Plan.

CONTRIBUTIONS

A participant may contribute to the Plan through authorized payroll deduction
of 5% or 10% of their qualifying compensation.

The Company matches 25% of the participant contributions for eligible employees
with less than two years of continuous employment with the Company. Eligible
employees with two years of continuous employment that participate in the Tandy
Brands Accessories, Inc. Employees Investment Plan receive a 50% matching
contribution from the Company.

The employee payroll deduction is accumulated and the Company contribution is
determined and accrued monthly. The total contributions for each month are
credited to the participants' accounts as stock on the basis of a price equal to
the average of the closing market price of the stock for the month.

PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution and
the Company's contribution for each month. Participant accounts are valued on a
monthly basis in accordance with the Plan's provisions.

VESTING

Participants are immediately vested in all contributions plus actual earnings
thereon.

B. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

The financial statements of the Plan are prepared using the accrual method of
accounting.

ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Plan
Administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported
amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results may differ from these
estimates.

INVESTMENT VALUATION

The Company stock is valued at its quoted market price. This investment is
subject to market risks customarily associated with equity investments.

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Benefits are recorded when paid. Benefits payable at December 31, 2002 and 2001,
were $1,295,986 and $1,118,511, respectively.


C. ADMINISTRATION OF PLAN ASSETS

The Plan's assets, which consist principally of cash, are held by the Company.

Contributions are held and managed by the Company, which invests cash received,
and makes distributions to participants.

Officers and employees of the Company perform certain administrative functions
for the Plan with no compensation from the Plan. Administrative expenses related
to the Plan are paid directly by the Company.
