Christmas ornament nativity continued (2023)

Each year (since getting the Glowforge) my wife has requested that I make ornaments to give out to volunteers.

Last year I made a shepherd ornament (inspired the nativity ornament by @geek2nurse):

And here is the conclusion to the trilogy planned last year, the Wise Men.

This has been such a fun set of ornaments to make. I will really have my work cut out for me next year to come up with another idea.

EDIT:
This design was accepted in the Glowforge Catalog. It can be found here:

Very nice idea to make a different one each year.

That is very elegant!

This is really lovely, Bill. The three wise men have been underappreciated and in the background more often than not.

I just think back to every nativity scene I have seen; Shepherds on the left, the manger in the middle, and the wise men on the right (because they came from the east).

I recall something about folk hanging out with their sheep in midwinter.

The first one is a variation of @geek2nurse 's original ornament.

The second one is based on artwork I didn’t draw.

But this one I will submit.

I have modified that ornament a few times myself :slight_smile:

Lovely ornament! I like that little curved platform that they stand on. And the layering.
