-   Customize the size (width) of the ornament
-   Customize all the fonts
-   Optionally add or remove the “points” in the lower-right corner for each letter tile
-   Works with any number of names — though we recommend sizing up for lots of names

In Federico’s [livestream from last week](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2NlpWM-nGA), he shows how to make fun slot-together 3D projects in Cuttle. Using only basic shapes, he creates a seal, a llama, a cat, and a modular construction toy.

If you’re looking for inspiration for your own designs, check out [Federico’s short video](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/HZVXUwTxl6w) on how to create Ed Emberley-style characters with simple shapes in Cuttle.
