Christmas Ornament Sets and Store Information

We are very excited about the new category we added to the store today. Christmas Ornaments.
We added 14 sets of handmade scroll saw ornaments to the store. These ornament sets are made from either wood, mirrored plexiglass, or used CD's. Pictured are just some examples of what you will find in that category.

If you are looking for the More Decor category in the store, it was moved to Misc Plaques to make a place for our ornament category.

We also made some changes on our personal website for the store.

This plaque is 10"h by 14"w. The frame is made out of Poplar and the cutouts are made out of Baltic Birch.

We used a close up of this picture to allow you to see the detail and cuts in this plaque. Different color stains help to give the pheasants color along with their background.
