Have you met The Finishing Fairy? Her name is Amanda Metes and she finishes flat back ornaments, standup with acrylic stands, coasters, and signs.
As a bonus, she does finishing tutorials, some filmed and some written. Here is her YouTube channel. Currently she has filmed how to join twisted cord and how to finish a flat back standup with an acrylic stand.
Her website has a free ornament finishing guide in PDF form plus links to her YouTube tutorials.
Her Instagram page is full of examples of her finishing plus she lists recommended products she uses to finish in the "Cutting - Products" circle above the photo area. If you don't have an Instagram account, she likes: the Fiskars two sided self healing cutting mat that's 18x24 inches, Fiskars craft knife, Fishars thread snips, 8x12 inch backing boards, and a compass for measuring the backing board for round ornaments.
She also recommends pre-made cording by One Part Whimsy.
