PROJECT 3: OLD PC ORNAMENT

November 17 - I decided to scale back on technology ornaments this year, but I couldn’t resist making at least one! The Old PC Ornament: 2017 Edition is a fun, intricate build that pays tribute to the classic PCs of the 1990s. (BONUS: OLD PC Ornament kits purchased at my store include a custom-printed floppy tile!)




 
PROJECT 2: PLATECRAFT GINGERBREAD

November 15 - Platecraft is back this year, and in a big way! This fun new project shows you how to make either a Platecraft Gingerbread Man or Platecraft Gingerbread Bear. The two builds differ by just four parts, so the guides listed below contains both assembly methods in case you can’t choose a favorite. :D




 
PROJECT 1: ROBE ORNAMENT

November 13 - First up this year is the Robe! Each facade on this three-sided ornament features an alternating set of colored bows that flow inward, giving it the appearance of fabric. Six color combinations are available: Red Ribbon, Pink Percale, Lavender Lace, Blue Broadcloth, Green Gingham, and Yellow Yarn.





 
PROJECT 4: TWIST ORNAMENT

November 20 - The Twist is a colorful new ornament design that’s both fun and flexible. Sandwiched in the center of the Twist are four color layers that stack onto a central axle; if you like, you can rearrange these layers or replace them entirely. Combine two or more Twists to create unique color combinations!




 
PROJECT 5: PLATECRAFT MR & MRS SNOW

November 22 - Project 5 in this year's Christmas Collection is Mr & Mrs Snow, two well-rounded characters that have a ball everywhere they go!





 
PROJECT 6: GINGERBREAD HOUSE ORNAMENT

November 24 - This year’s Gingerbread House is smaller, cuter, and more colorful! Peppermints swirls sweeten the two-tone gingerbread walls; brightly colored candy covers the snowy rooftop, and candy cane posts guard the sugary entryway. And unlike previous gingerbread creations, you can hang this one from a tree!




 
PROJECT 7: PENDANT ORNAMENT

November 27 - The penultimate project in this year’s Christmas Collection is the Pendant! This bold, bright ornament uses new quarter-round tiles in different arrangements to give each color variant a distinct appearance. It’s available in Fuchsia, Orange, Chartreuse, and Azure. 




 
PROJECT 8: PLATECRAFT REINDEER

November 29 - The final project for the year is a bright-eyed and shiny-nosed Platecraft Reindeer! There are two building methods for this ornament, allowing you to create either a cartoony red-nose reindeer (as pictured here) or a more realistic variant.
