Bauble Bobble Babble - 3D Affect Christmas Ornament




There are some big questions we never really get answers to. Like:

What if someone made a bobble head that was six feet high, would it feel like it is going to attack if you turn your back to it? Or would seventy-three six inch bobble heads with Christmas baubles as their heads be scarier, even if they can't move? That is a lot of bobble bauble. 

Well, I doubt we'll ever get an answer to that big bobble question, but enough bobble bauble babble and onto cutting some fun Christmas baubles with this new 3D affect bauble ornament scroll saw pattern! 


This is a two-piece pattern. The front and backer can be cut separately then glued together. Paint the back a different colour than the front or use two different tone woods for a 3-D affect! 

Custom name option coming very soon! Keep an eye out for the email and blog announcements!



Options & Customizations

Merry, Bright, X-Mas, 2026

Don't want a word or don't want to scroll the word? Don't cut out the inner white rectangle!

Just want to cut the front? Then just cut the front! 

Just want to cut the backer? Cut out only the backer and wood burn or paint, decorate, and get creative with it!

Custom Names
Custom name options coming very soon! The instructions on how to order custom names will be easy to follow and announced on the blog and email list. Please note there will be a small charge for custom name ornaments.

Fun Historical Fact!

The abbreviation “X-Mas” dates back to the early church. The “X” comes from the Greek letter “X” or in English spelling “chi”, which is the first letter in the Greek word for Christ. In the English alphabet Christós or in the Greek Χριστός.

Thus X became an abbreviation for Christ, and as early as the 1100-1500’s, variations of X-Mas are documented being used as abbreviations for “Christmas” which comes from the words “Christ” and “Mass”.

Think Safety

Remember to keep the safety of yourself and others in your work shop in your thoughts at all times. Always wear eye and ear protection. Follow all the manufactures warnings that came with your power tools. If I demonstrate something on this web site that you don't feel is safe, don't do it. Your safety is your responsibility. Fingers are handy things, try to keep all of them.
