Or, if you don't want to use the homoglyph face for such replacements:

(defun set-character-display (char repl)
   (let ((c (char-from-name char)))
     (when (and c (stringp repl))
       (aset (or standard-display-table
              (setq standard-display-table (make-display-table)))
          c (vconcat repl)))))

(set-character-display "SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES" ":-)")
