With a quick twist, this traditional Christmas ball ornament opens to reveal a surprise inside!
What kind of surprise? Well that's up to you. Gift cards? Money? Candies? An engagement ring? Keys to a new car?
---
The ornament ball can be printed with a simple spherical bottom, or print the retaining post version to use one of the gift card holders.
We have provided several decorative cap options. These can be used to hang the ornament on the Christmas tree using thread, ribbon, or ornament hooks.
We have also included the files for a small (standard-sized) ornament design. Note that this design is not large enough to fit a standard gift card. This small design does not have support for inserts.
---
For best results, utilize breakaway or soluble supports. Traditional supports will leave blemishes inside the ball.

NOTE: If you post remixes/additions online --- Printables, Thingiverse, Cults, etc. -- you must include attribution and link back to this original design. Do not claim the original design as your own.
