Information

      A detailed laser-cut wooden Christmas bauble featuring Santa with his reindeer flying over winter houses and stars. The file contains two mirrored versions prepared for creating a double-sided ornament. After engraving and cutting, simply flip, align and glue both halves together to achieve a smooth 3D look without visible burnt edges. Perfect for Christmas trees, windows, gifts or festive decoration projects. Fits on A4 plywood.

This ornament shows a silhouette scene of Santa, reindeer, houses, trees and stars arranged inside a circular bauble.
The project includes two mirrored cuts ready for double-sided assembly. When glued together, both sides show the same clean design and edges become fully hidden. Ideal as a tree decoration, window hanging or gift tag.
