Christmas Ornaments

We have 11 great grand children, 7 from 6-12, 4 are much older, so this season we decided to let them make some wooden tree ornaments.    

I drew some shapes on 3/16" thick plywood, then let the kids cut them out with my 10" bandsaw.   Next they took the cutouts to the kitchen table and painted them with acrylics.   They really got a kick out of hanging them on the trees at their own house.

More ornament shapes.   I used some sockets of different sizes, as templates, to help draw circles.
