Christmas Ornaments

I know this is a bit early, but I found the exact tree I wanted for a dirt cheap price at Walmart last weekend. I put it up and it fits great, but the other tree will go up eventually too and use up all our current ornaments.

I thought it would be neat to make some paper ornaments to go on it, but I really can't find hardly anything out there. I started this thread in this section in case anyone else knows of good sites, please please post them here! Pay ones are fine too, I just want to make some ornaments!

keep in mind, that you can always use the models out there already, just pick those you find interesting, and hang them.

I have done this with both regular paper models, or origami models

That's a really good idea, Rick! It gives me an excuse to build the Darjeeling "Toy Train" that Canon just came out with!

Here is a site that I use a lot to get paper models of polyhedra. At the bottom of the page is a link to collections in color. You could try printing on gloss paper or spray them with some gloss to make them shine. Another thing to try is to print the plain models on the back of some colorful paper like Christmas wrapping paper and mount on cardstock.
