Since it's the season of Christmas and other festive holidays. Did you make any decorations that apply to that festive celebration?
I'd love to see them?
 
Bit late to this - and no I didn't make one. However, I obtained a piece of scrap explosion bonded copper / stainless steel plate. I had it in my mind that I should be able to machine this and make some wonderous ornament, but everything I came up with in my mind I thought would just end up looking like a bit of copper on top of a bit of stainless steel. Seems like I should be able to do something with it but I've no idea what. If anyone has any ideas I'd love to make something for next Christmas.

Now you have a whole year to think up something special.
 
My wife and son are REALLY big on decorating for Halloween, so I’ve 3D printed several pieces for them. So far, I haven’t had an opportunity to machine anything in the way of decorative items, welded several wire frames, but nothing much.

30 years ago I welded up a wire frame fixture resembling a man to dress in clothing as part of my outdoor Christmas decorations. It drew a lot of attention because it resembled a man hanging Christmas lights that had slipped off his ladder. Folks were pretty sure it was me hanging from the roof tangled in Christmas lights!
