Every year I have made custom Christmas ornaments for family and friends for the last twenty years. This year I decided to make a Santa Claus from engravers plastic. It ended up with nineteen parts to assemble, times 127 ornaments I had 2,413 parts to assemble all of the Santa's. More work than I had anticipated but well worth the effort based on the positive feedback I received.

I plan to take a break next year and dye-sublimate the 2023 ornaments :)

Thanks guys. In 2021 I did a similar style ornament that was a Christmas tree with big eyes and in 2020 I made Frosty the Snowman ornaments. They have all been popular. Years ago I made a traditional wooden snow sled that has always been one of my favorites. The plans for the full size snow sled came from Vectric I just scaled the drawings down to an ornament size.
