Interlocking Folded-Bands Ornament — Holiday Sphere

This elegant holiday ornament forms a spherical shape from six flat, single-layer Sheet pieces that print without supports. Each Sheet is folded along its centerline and interlocked through slots in an alternating pattern to create a light, airy globe. The folded Sheets are then seated and secured into the Insert piece, and the assembly is finished with the Cap, which neatly locks everything in place.

The Cap includes two hanging holes for threading a cord or ribbon, making it simple to display on your Christmas tree or garlands. Because each Sheet is printed separately, you can easily mix and match colors to create custom combinations and visual effects.

Future updates will explore additional Sheet geometries, surface patterns, and size options. I welcome your suggestions to further improve the model.
