Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.

     Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that on February 8, 2005, that the Board of Directors elected W. Grady Rosier, 56, the President and CEO of leading grocery distributor McLane Company, Inc., to the Company’s Board of Directors. The election of Mr. Rosier fills a vacancy created by the retirement of C.A. Rundell, Jr. and returns the size of the Board to seven. The Board has determined that Mr. Rosier qualifies as “independent,” as defined in Nasdaq’s current listing standards. Mr. Rosier will serve as a Class II director with his term expiring in 2007, and has been appointed to the Nominations Committee and Compensation Committee. There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Rosier and any other person concerning his selection as a director, nor is Mr. Rosier a party to any transaction, or series of transactions, required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

     Mr. Rosier has over 30 years of experience in the retail and distribution industries. He currently serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of McLane Company, Inc., a position he has held for nearly 10 years. During this time, he helped guide the evolution of the company into a leading distributor within the grocery and food service industry. Mr. Rosier joined McLane Company in 1984 as President, McLane/Sunwest and has since served in senior and executive management roles throughout the company’s value chain, including purchasing, distribution, marketing and customer service. Formerly a subsidiary of Wal-Mart Stores, McLane Company was acquired by Berkshire Hathaway Inc. in May 2003. Mr. Rosier also serves on the Board of Directors of KFx Inc., a publicly-traded energy company.
