ornament help
« on: November 16, 2011, 09:08:41 am »
Been asked to make 2 name ornaments, with the names Jayden and Christian. The problem is Christian being so long. Any ideas for that name?

Here's two ideas:

Shorten it to Chris, if they don't mind, OR

Make two ornaments, one with "Chris" and the other with "tian".

Good luck!

I squeezed the name "Rockefeller" into an ornament last year.  Be careful and it'll still be very legible.   ;)

Another thought...make 10 panels with each letter plus a blank. Bevel the edges of the blanks 18 degrees (I think) and glue them together to make a decagon.
