Our First Pandemic Ornament

I printed several of babjazz's flat ornament (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4653859) to use as bag tags on gifts, but when it came time to do the tree, I wanted something more traditionally ornamental. So, inspired by the original, I set to work.

Here's the result. A half-sphere, with a raised graphic featuring a holiday wreath (instead of laurels), text in SignPainter HouseScript Semibold and the classic biohazard symbol in the center. (Credit to AnnaliseArt @ Pixabay for the wreath - https://pixabay.com/illustrations/christmas-wreath-holly-nordic-4918392/.)

The design is provided in two formats. The first is the plain half sphere, the second has a friction-fit socket in the back for a tea light. The socket is sized for the lights commonly available at Target (https://www.target.com/p/12ct-twist-flame-led-tealight-candles-white-room-essentials-8482/-/A-79474740), but the original design is published via TinkerCAD, and could be easily modified to fit different size lights (https://www.tinkercad.com/things/j7xXLCQmCFt-our-first-pandemic-ornament-2020). The LEP basically backlights the biohazard symbol, which seems appropriate.
