Friends Advent Calendar - Day 20
Posted by MeganL,
Day 20! We're heading into the home stretch now, and it's only a few days before everyone gets a visit from you-know-who. Yesterday's gingerbread man was the latest of several bakery themed ornaments - will we get another today?
We're taking a break from the baked goods, and today's ornament is a lovely snowflake! I think this is a simple, elegant build with four white leaf pieces and a 2x2 round plate in medium azur as the base for the leaf pieces. I darkened the picture a bit for another look.
I like the use of the transparent light blue 1x1 rounds for accents on this build. The 2x2 parabolic element in the same colour really ties this all together. The ornament is easily hung by the edge of any leaf element.
I think this is one of the nicest ornaments so far.
Today's purple factor - none! (Though we all know that likely won't last)

If LEGO would release a box of ten or so of these, I would hang them on my tree (remember that I call myself a “Hallmark snob” when it comes to tree ornaments). This—like the superb wreath—is everything that LEGO design should be: simple but recognizably fun. It’s a beauty.
Now that I remembered the wreath, LEGO could make a kit of snowflakes and wreaths...
We are getting a visit from Lord Voldemort?
No purple? :o
purplegate
One of my favourite ornaments regardless.
Very beautiful!
I find your lack of purple disturbing
Probably the best one so far, at least strictly as a Christmas tree ornament. You could hang this in someone's tree and they might not even realise it's made out of LEGO.
@nerdcore123 clearly MeganL is referring to Krampus.
Outstanding!!!
