Simple cardboard Christmas

We have a large cedar tree in our front yard for Halloween I made a few cardboard bats to suspend and entertain the dog walkers. For Christmas decided to be much more ambitious. Snowflakes, stars, bells, snowmen, etc. Like how they turned out. The neighbors were skeptical it was just painted cardboard on cotton thread. Here a couple of pics. I’ll try to post a fuzzy video that shows the fun movement. Enjoy!

The forum is terrible for video - but if you post it to YouTube or Vimeo or something and then post the link here the rest of us should be able to see it :smiley:

and I’d love to see it!
