I like the second one. In the first one the OOF bell overpowers the in-focus bauble.

First shot has seriously inadequate depth of field.
Second shot has better DoF and good lighting on the ornament, but the background point sources of light are a little hard to deal with.

the color cast kills it for me. the background is too busy in the first. second one needs some composition work. its boring to be honest. sorry if im being harsh. i dont want to be another person to give you false praise when i can give you some critique instead.

I think the second would make a great Christmas card for next year...

What if the Hokey Pokey is really what it's all about?
