Unfortunatly the tealights I have are yellow hue so his red nose doesn’t show red. Will look around or just diy one with a white LED.
I might also need to paint in more colors…

Piece of red acrylic for the nose maybe?

I might just cut a puzzle piece to fit…this was a piece of red film…like you use on stage lights. (Gel)

That just might do it, even using a tea light with a yellow glow. Bonus is that it is a great use of scrap acrylic. I will have a hard time tossing any scraps. Have way too much HTV, vinyl and paper scraps in boxes. Although I do use them in the Silhouette quite a bit.

If you’re done with Halloween crafting, it is time to work on Christmas crafts. Especially for selling. Just label them “WARNING: Not for use until after Thanksgiving”. 
That might even be a cute thing to engrave on the bottom of them.
I’m old school and still mail cards out. I make about 90 each year. I’m just getting the first design started and feel WAY behind this year.

Hope this doesn’t hijack the thread, but since we are talking about Christmas, here goes.
I’m interested in trying to direct engrave on glass ornaments. Round ones are a no go for the Glowforge, but I did find these glass disc ornaments that are just 1 1/6 inches deep for the ones linked and 1 7/16 inches deep for the bigger ones that they have on Amazon.
It might take some work to get the power/speed levels right so the very thin glass doesn’t crack, but I hope I can get them to work. They have a slightly domed surface. Likely will engrave, then paint the inside of the ornaments. Possibly paint on the outside and engrave the color off - or both with contrasting colors inside and out.
I ordered a box of both (for next year’s holiday, unfortunately) and will be giving them a try when my Glowforge arrives. I’ll post results then.

You should do a new thread as it may get better exposure with its own headline. Not everyone reads through all comments on posted topics.

Thanks,
I’ll give it a try.

This look like it would be a lot of fun…but as you said, for next year. I’ll look forward to hearing and seeing how it all worked with the Glowforge.

Just ordered a couple of boxes too. I’m going to play with them next week. Nice find. Never would have stumbled across them myself.

I think the flattened bulb ornaments are a great idea. Can’t wait to see someone try them. Will follow them on their other thread.

If I had my GF I’d make one today and put it up! I will not comply!
My wife however would take it right back down and hide it until after Thanksgiving…
