Abstract
An animated ornament comprises inner and outer hollow globes mounted to a housing which contains powering components to rotate the inner globe while the outer globe is held fixed relative to the housing. A light bulb mounted inside illuminates the inner globe to project an image carried on the surface of the inner globe onto the surface of or through the outer globe, and due to the rotation of the image, an animated presentation of the image is seen.
