After they were baked, I sealed them with varnish. My father made this for us to hang our ornaments on so they could dry after varnishing them. I am taking the drips off the bears feet with a wooden chopstick, so there are no bumps.
I am still amazed that I made that many of them for everyone. I still have a tiny box with a few left overs in my basement.

What a great post! I made ornaments one year with my sister, maybe 15 years ago but we did not varnish them and after time they were not so pretty anymore,lol.
