Sled Ornaments
« on: October 25, 2011, 09:28:35 pm »
I love making these. I usually have 10 or 12 at craft shows and always sell out. So this time I hope to be prepared. I have 28 done and blanks for 28 more ready to be cut. The tree, reindeer, and candle patterns are from Sheila Landry and the Snowman is one I made from clipart. All the runners have "2011" on them. Woods used are maple, cherry, walnut, sycamore, oak, and sapelle. I have two shows in Nov and one in Dec so I hope these will last. If I have any left over, I know what everyone at work is getting for Christmas.

Thoses are very cool looking, I like them alot, I can see why you sell out of them especially near the holidays.

Did you make the sleds from a pattern or create it yourself? Great job either way!
