1. Understand the project
- Using the laser cutter, any design of text and/or images can be laser-burned onto a plywood ornament blank
- Both sides of the ornament blank can have a design, if desired

2. Create the design
Select an image or text
- Images need to look good in black and white rather than color
- Some detail will disappear when laser-etching

Size the image
- Crop or stretch your image to 2.88” square
- Be aware that since the ornament is a circle, things in the corners of the image will not be on the ornament
