I like Paint your own, Snowmen, Christmas trees and Icicles.
Fast to turn, from scraps and small bit's of wood. Then just sand to finish. A small screw eye or look of wire to hang them from and they are done.
I tell people that they are something for the children to paint on a rainy day, and as memories as the years go by.
I also them that the best paints for them are acrylics, but if they prime the surface first even water based paints can be used.
