Abstract: A figure ornament and method of making same which utilizes a thin, sheet material body having a longitudinally oriented solid center section which extends through the body dividing the body into a right side lobe and a left side lobe. Both the right side lobe and the left side lobe include a mass of thin slits. The center section is then folded upon itself forming a compact stack with the right side lobe and the left side lobe flaring outwardly from the compact stack defining an ornamental figure shape. There is then to be used an adhesive or clip for securing the compact stack so as to maintain the compact stack in its established position.

Abstract: A decorative ornament that is constructed by wrapping a pair of sections sequentially onto a core. Each section is composed of thin, pliable sheet material which includes a mass of slits forming a plurality of first upstanding members within one section and a plurality of second upstanding members within the second section. The outer tips of the first upstanding members are free and the apexes of the second upstanding members are free. Both the first section and the second section each include a solid uncut border with these borders to be wound onto the core in an overlapping arrangement. The slits within each section are located transverse to their respective border.

Abstract: A decorative ornament that is constructed generally in the shape of a bow, flower or tree which is formed by wrapping a first section of sheet material on a rigid core. The first section includes a plurality of spaced apart cuts which extend between a solid upper border and a solid lower border. When the first section is folded over upon itself with the borders abutting, the material located between the cuts each form a loop. The first section is basically in the shape of a truncated cone with the left edge being of a short length and the right edge being of a longer length. The first section is to be overlapped with the borders abutting and then wrapped on the core. Wrapping in a direct overlapping arrangement will produce one type of ornament and wrapping longitudinally along the core will produce another type of ornament. Also, different types of decorative ornaments are produced when the wrapping starts with the short edge or the long edge.
