Early in December I was chatting with Mike from Scenic City Woodturning (check him out at: youtube.com/channel/UCrp8XL8c0AKsEvlZx_-b-bA ) about Christmas projects. I had lots of plans but in the end not much had come of them. I also told him my weekly schedule was already full until Christmas. Afterwards I figured I could reschedule a video and squeeze something in for December 18 so that's what I did. This video got uploaded on the Monday before, pretty late for my standards but still plenty on time.
The result is quite satisfactory, certainly for a first attempt, and I hope you all like it. As is often the case this project was made from scrap wood, some cutoffs from a renovation I did this month. The only thing I regret is not having recorded the making of the Little Snowman that sits inside the ornament but the video has become fairly long regardless. I hope you all have more time to watch during the holidays!
