Lately I've been hearing the song "Sleigh Ride" on the radio a lot. It's a good song. I especially like the lines that say, "There's a special feeling nothing in the world can buy, when they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie." That is exactly how I felt last weekend, when I celebrated Thanksgiving.
Now Thanksgiving has passed, and Advent has begun. Our family put out our Christmas decorations, including the tree, on Sunday. I have a new ornament on the tree this year, and it's very different from the cross stitched ornaments that I've been sharing recently.
Supplies: green paint from DecoArt, red paint & glitter from Ranger, star ribbon from Scrapbook Fantasies. |
I made this ornament in a free class at the library. The class was on how to use a 3D printer, and each class participant could design one small item and print it.
The ornament was white (as pictured above) when it came off the printer. After I brought it home, I painted it and glued on the ribbon hanger. As the ornament indicates, all this happened in 2014. However, our family didn't put up a Christmas tree in 2014, so I'm hanging the ornament for the first time in 2015.
I hope that the first day of December is off to a good start for you. Take care and have a happy "T-Day"! :)

wow how cool to get to use a 3d printer and lovely keepsake
Nothing like a god cuppa with pumpkin pie! Love your ornament. It sounds fascinating to watch and design for a 3D printer. Still have my Thanksgiving /fall décor around. Once I get better I'll get to it, but I do need to work on cards-yikes! Happy T day and thanks for your comments to me.
How super? ! Great ! Happy week and happy T-Day!
Wow! I love that decoration! Your pumpkin pie looks delicious - my Mum used to make it but I have forgotten what it tastes like! Chrisx
Christmas music yayeeeee! :)
Happy T Tuesday
Great ornament--it must have been fun using the 3D printer. I have a hard time understanding just how it works but it is amazing! Happy T Day!
I'm more of a coffee and chocolate cream pie kinda gal, but glad you had your pumpkin pie. ;)
That made a cute ornament. Happy T-Day! :)
Can't beat a good cup of coffee and pumpkin pie ♥♥♥♥ I'm always fascinated with what can be done with a 3D printer.
those 3D printers are amazing... cute ornament! happy T day!
That is a fantastic ornament! I didn't know there were 3D printers! That must have been a fun tutorial.
Your pumpkin pie looks scrummy!
Thank you for visiting earlier,
Happy T-Day,

Never seen let alone used a 3D printer. How exciting. Your cute ornament will always be a great reminder of your first use of the printer. Pumpkin pie I'm familiar with and yours looks so tasty.
I'm in awe of your use of the 3-D printer. I can't believe the class was FREE. That's amazing. Our library charges for everything.
I also got to eat pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving and two days after when I shared a meal with my friend Sally. I love pumpkin pie, and that looks great. We skipped the cream, though because Sally isn't driving due to her surgery, and I wasn't about to wander out in an ice storm for whipping cream.
Thanks for sharing your pie and your AWESOME ornament with us for T this Tuesday.
i´ve never seen a 3d Printer in real but this outcome is fabulous! have a great Advent!
Thank you for leaving such a lovely comment on my blog. I am still trying to pull myself together to get into the Christmas feeling.
Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving me a comment this week.
I am very curious about 3D printers, and would love to see on in action.
I really like the ornament you made with it.
Oh, that pumpkin pies looks soooo yummy!
Belated T-day wishes
