Custom Stars and Hearts Ornament

Customize this Ornament!

Create a custom ornament for any occasion: baby's first Christmas, wedding, graduation, job promotion, big wedding anniversary - whatever you want to celebrate!

Inspiration
This model was inspired by the work of user 3d-decoratie on thingiverse. I brazenly "borrowed" the hearts and stars elements.

While making personalized ornaments for nieces and nephew, it occurred to me I could make this design easy to customize. In Fusion 360 (F360) , position the sketches that contain editable text near to the end of the timeline. Right after the sketches would be the extrude features, which wouldn't need changing. You'd only have to change two text fields, and generate STL files. Easy!

Design

The fixed elements of the ornament use these F360 tools:

• Circle and Rectangle
• Splines
• Lines
• Pipe
• Mirror
• Scale
• Move
• Polygon

Text and date are sketch/text extruded.

Following describes what's in the video.

These background elements will be extruded at 2mm -

• Circumference of ornament
• Ornament hanger
• Text Frame for name or message
• Date Frame

These features will be extruded at 3mm, to stand higher than the background -

• Decorative features - stars and hearts
• Text/Date

Extrude/scale/move are used frequently to size and align the decorative elements.

    Process:

• Ornament Boundary: 85mm center circle; offset 2mm
• Hanger: Use fixed point splines to create a curve for the hanger and sketch/mirror it
• Draw center circle for a hole to hang the ornament
• Text Frame: Draw a rectangle in the center of the ornament
• Use Construction Lines to align features
• Five-pointed star: connect the vertices of a 5-sided polygon
• Date Frame: 
• Use spline/pipe to create outside scroll work
• Add a rectangle between the splines
• Add sketch/text and extrude

The following video details the steps. I completely re-drew the ornament from the beginning using Fusion 360, so it won't exactly match the download on thingiverse.
