i was talking to a couple up the street and showing them my xmas ornaments, i made the comment that i wished to improve next year by making long thin icicles

their comment was long this icicles are not very child freindly and that was the type of ornaments they were interested in, for their grandchildren

any thoughts????????
 
Charlie I make long thin icicles as well as thin hollow ornament balls. A customer picked it up and said it seems fragile. I told him most ornaments I put on my tree are fragile. My wooden ones are actually tougher than most.
