Information

      A simply, yet very decorative ornament. the trick if finding the balance between stylized and too plain. I found that making the shapes too symmetrical puts people off.

A quick design to cut with only 4 shapes and they can easily be batched out and painted. You could also cut or engrave eyes if you want. I made these pieces so that they all fit as a 2 layer flat pack in case you would like to package them as kits.

P.S. : the ornaments in the pictures only had base coats, I then glue them and finish the painting.

Instruction

Step1: easy assembly

I wanted to have a simple ornament that I could sell at markets as a kit or finished product. I do mostly woodturning and also demonstrate at markets. every now and then I need a break so I could sit at my booth and glue/finish these up. that way I'm still kind of demonstrating, drawing people in and spend the time useful.
