[0013] FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a flow chart for manufacturing the ornament 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. In the wooden ball making step S1, a through hole a2 is drilled in thinned wood or scrap wood processed into a 1 cm square cube, and the surface and corners are sanded to make them round. Next, in the plant dyeing step S2, the wood is plant dyed, washed with water, and dried. Next, in the ornament assembly step S3, the wooden balls dyed in the plant dyeing step S2 are strung together in an arbitrary pattern to create the ornament. Note that the ornament 1 according to this embodiment uses wooden balls 2 dyed with four types of plant dyes, but there may be cases where three or fewer types of plant dyes are applied, or five or more types of plant dyes are applied.

[0014] The ornament 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention has the following advantages. (a) The wooden balls are dyed with multiple types of natural dyes, making it possible to create them from 100% natural materials, providing a low-cost, highly decorative accessory. (i) Since the balls are made of wooden material with sides each measuring approximately 1 cm, thinning wood and scrap wood can be used, allowing for low-cost production.

[0015] Second Embodiment A personal ornament 10 according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
