What kind of printer did you get? I jumped in on the Bambu Labs P1S black friday deal. Been printing christmas decorations lol.

I bought my son's Ender 5 Pro. It's about 5 years old I think. Good thing to learn with and for simple prototypes. He warned me not to get upgrades for it because I'll probably want to upgrade to a new printer before spending anything on this one. I still get too many strings so I'm learning yet. The time-consuming and difficult part is making your own designs by learning Blender. If you do try Blender, don't start with the "donut" tutorial. Maker Tales on YouTube is much better for learning CAD on Blender.

That is some great detail on your ornament!

Creality makes great printers. I had a cr-10 that I got like seven years ago and the ender is a workhorse.

Another one you might want to take a look at is tinkercad. It's free for personal use and the learning curve isn't nearly as steep as blender or fusion 360
