Thank you so much for the feature!! :grinning_face:

@Edel, I wish I had some sort of time magic. But alas, I am just an easily distracted human. Which is why this project took over a month to complete.

Thank you guys for all your kind words!

I knew these were special ornaments, but I had absolutely no idea how much work was involved! Amazing, and thanks for providing this detailed behind-the-scenes look!
Also, it is so precious that your hubby helped w the paint decision! Sometimes I wish I had married a crafty guyg :blush:
Oh, and the teeny vase from @Mountains_and_Clouds … it’s magical how well it fits in that ornament🥰

I am blown away by the awesomeness of this project, all of it is perfect; the rearrangeable books, cute plants, the teacup, picture… it is a perfect labour of love for this special corner of the internet. Makes me wish I lived in the USA so I could do Swap The Shop :wink:

I love the technique for smoothing out the laser print layer lines, and the texture of the wood under the paint looks like pages. It is so wonderful, thanks for sharing it.

Thank you all so much. Each of these kind comments has brought a smile to my face!

I am so glad the technique for smoothing out those layer lines worked out! Originally, I had been thinking of using some glitter heat transfer vinyl, but I couldn’t figure out how to make it work with the loop at the top. The answer to simply just glue down actual glitter seems obvious now, but it took way longer than it should have for my brain to come up with that, lol.

I also love how the texture of the wood under the paint looked like pages. That was an even better outcome than I had anticipated!
