Prospectors who came through this part of Utah, many of them with sailing backgrounds, called its long wall of cliffs a reef because it blocked travel like a reef at sea. Early settlers thought the white sandstone domes along it looked like the dome of the Capitol in Washington, D.C. Put the two together and you get Capitol Reef. The scene in this laser cut ornament design is red rock country, with a tall sandstone monolith rising from a pale desert floor under drifting clouds.
This laser cut ornament design file is an intarsia inspired mosaic in nine woods, with 18 pieces that you cut and fit together. Hang yours on a travel tree at Christmas, and it's just as welcome on display the other eleven months. Make an extra for the Utah road tripper in your family.
The laser cut files come to you as an instant digital download. No physical ornament is included.
