Nice job on the ornaments!  

I have to know where did you get the pattern for the horse ornament?  I plan on making more for the coming year and that looks like a good and easy one.

Thanks,

Karl

They are lovely.  Can you tell me where you got the pattern from, the flat oblong one with the tree?  Thanks

Thanks for the input guys & gals. Yeah last year I left them natural and just ran a gold thread though them to hang them up, this year I think the ribbon, beads, bells, snowflakes, etc, just jazzes them up - or more completes them. Glad everyone enjoyed.

Here's where they came from: I'm sure you recognise Steve Good's Tree - Thanks Steve love your designs!!!  Tree in rectangle is a Gift Tag Ornament from Creative Woodworks & Crafts Holiday 2009, Scrollsaw Woodworking & Crafts   has the Tree with fretwork ornaments in Fretwork Christmas Ornaments Holiday 2006, and the Cherry Songbirds are their Holiday 2011   which most of you probably have. The horse I am still researching believe it was an online site.

I used linseed oil for the first time on the natural ones, spray paint on the white & green fretwork trees (I don't really like the results), green stain on the tree in the circle, wood stain on the x'mas tree in the second picture. The Cardinal was hand painted with acrylic paint and sprayed with clear spray paint.

Precious ornaments, the  feminine touch gives a perfect result.

I took a copy of your picture and tried to scan the horse, this is what I managed to come up with. it's not the best pattern so if you find yours then I would still appreceiate a copy of the proper plan if poss.

My research says the horse was originally designed by Scroll Saw Artist Dirk Boelman - so we should probably ask him if he's like to share his design - I just wanted to make one for myself ;o)
