This is really cute. I don't live in an area that doesn't normally get cold enough for ice skating. Therefore, I don't think about skates so that is a fun idea.

Your ornament is so very different! I just love it! I also love the fact that you could hang this one anywhere in the house and keep it out later! I have a snowman collection I keep out all year, so when i make this one....guess where it is going!!!!!
