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.
