I beleive they are hard coded by XFCE. You could create your own using .desktop files

Eg. for Home folder:

Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Home Folder
Comment=Open your home folder
Exec=thunar /home/your-username
Icon=user-home
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Utility;Core;
where your-username is your login name.

Trash (won't show full):

Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Trash
Icon=user-trash
Exec=thunar trash:///
Categories=Utility;FileManager;

Then just change the icon from names in /usr/share/icons/Papirus/ folders
