I'm doing pretty good keeping up with the custom name ornaments this year. I am only a few days from being caught up. If you placed an order before Tuesday of last week then make sure you email me. All orders before that date should be in your email. 

It's time to order your Custom Christmas Name Ornaments.
These will become instant family heirlooms.
The patterns are $1 per name with a 5 ornament minimum.
You will only pay once you receive the patterns and are satisfied.
You will be able to pay securely online with a credit card or send payment through regular mail.
You can mix from the two styles in the picture above.
Names over about 10 letters can be very difficult to cut.

Below are the most popular patterns shown during October - they were added to Holidays>Christmas. Many subscribers liked the Large Nativity tree shown before and asked for another pattern featuring a Santa, sleigh etc. Use 1/8" (3mm) birch ply or similar and make the inside cuts. Attach the overlay piece to thicker wood of a darker color with pieces of double-sided tape, then cut the perimeter line through both layers. Detach and sand the pieces by hand before gluing the overlay on top of the backer. The image on the right shows the reverse, with the design cut from dark wood. The most difficult part of cutting a project like this one is managing the size of the work piece around the saw blade. Most people will utilize spiral blades to make cutting easier.
NW956 Large Christmas scenes tree 18" x 11.1" $8.95

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My Nativity wreaths depict the birth of Jesus and the first one is more elaborate than the second. Cut the wreaths directly in hardwood, or use 1/8" (3mm) birch ply for the design, attached to a thicker wood backer. For a lighted version: Drill some holes in the backer in strategic positions and fit a string of 10 fairy lights to the back, to allow the lights to shine through some of the fret cuts. 
NW965 Nativity wreath 11" x 10.7" $7.95

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This set of relief-cut trees was added to the section Holidays>Christmas>Trees. Five of the trees consist of four pieces each, while the other three each have three work pieces. Wood thickness for each layer is 1 1/2" (38mm). I used Jelutong (similar to Basswood), which not only makes cutting this thickness a breeze, but is also easy to sand by hand. Each section is cut at a particular tilt angle in order to achieve the desired effect. A base pattern is also included and is made from 1/2" to 5/8" (12mm to 16mm) wood. A piece of 1/4" (6mm) diameter dowel is used to join the tree to the base. Detailed instructions are included.

The Christmas welcome plaque will look great on the front door. Cut directly in thicker hardwood, or use 1/8" (3mm) birch ply, backed with thicker wood, painted in red, green and black.
