Abstract: A book-type ornament adapted to be suspended from a Christmas tree bough or other like support has a plurality of pliant inner sheets folded on themselves to provide pages. A pliant outer sheet is folded on itself to provide top and bottom cover portions, with the pages being arranged therebetween, and with the fold lines of the inner and outer sheets being parallel and adjacent to one another. A flexible elongated element is received in aligned openings located at the fold lines of the inner and outer sheets. This element extends exteriorly of the fold line of the outer sheet to form a loop for suspending the ornament. Planar outer elements overlie the exterior surfaces of the cover portions. The outer elements, which are dimensioned to expose the fold line of the outer sheet, have inturned peripheral flanges overlapping the edges of the cover portions.

Abstract: Methods are described for producing novel shaped objects drawn from sheet metal blanks having a surface design in one or more decorative metals of contrasting color. The design is applied to the flat metal blank with distortions which substantially compensate for the metal deformation in forming the object from the blank.
