DIY Star Wars LEGO ornaments: perfect for your Hothmas tree

This is no mere ornament. It's a LEGO ornament. A LEGO Star Wars ornament that you can DIY. And it's going to look great hanging on your tree, along with a LEGO Millenium Falcon and TIE Fighter.

Besides, isn't pew pew pew more fun than ho ho ho?

They're also good for pretending your tree is the forest moon of Endor and staging epic starship battles to the tune of Wicket the Red-Nosed Ewok. Heh.-Delilah
