Turn Personalized Christmas Ornaments Into Keepsakes
This is a sponsored post and I was compensated. However, all opinions are mine. When I was a kid, we always got a huge Christmas tree. Mom painstakingly chose the tree each year. It was always perfect.
Because most of our tree ornaments were handed down from many generations, my sister and I were not allowed to help decorate the tree. Mom wasn’t being mean. They were breakable and precious and it would have been awful to lose one to breakage!
Collecting Christmas Tree Ornaments
When I had my first child, I began to collect ornaments for my own family. When she was old enough, she helped choose one ornament for herself each Christmas. We have carried that tradition on with the two younger kids as well.
I think what I love most about doing this is to see how we have changed over the years. For Henry, we have moved from Winnie the Pooh at 3, to Spiderman at 10 to the gamer he is now at 16! We have such a collection of personalized Christmas ornaments!
They Grow Up So Fast!
Caitlin has grown into such a beautiful young woman! As a toddler, she could not get enough of Blue’s Clues. At 10, she was reading Junie B. Jones and listening to Kidz Bop.
Now she is in college and her favorite movie of all time is the Nightmare before Christmas. You should see how many of her Christmas gifts are Nightmare Before Christmas themed!
Music Is In Our Blood
Chelsea is now 30 and living on her own in Atlanta. If she isn’t here for the holidays, we choose an ornament we know she will love. Chelsea has always been my musical girl. Her dad and I both have a love of music.
She has played violin, guitar and ukulele for years. She also has the most beautiful voice you have ever heard! I knew she would love this music themed ornament from Personalized Ornaments For You.
For Chris, as most years, his ornament has a sports theme to it. This year was no exception. Go Giants! Personalized Ornaments For You has a ton of Christmas ornaments to choose from. You can find ornaments for your first home, your wedding anniversary, a new baby or to commemorate another special occasion.
Follow them on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest.

I just found the perfect little gift to give my child’s teachers. I am totally going to get them a personalized ornament.
I won your last contest for these ornaments and they are FANTASTIC! I can’t wait until Christmas to give everyone their ornament! It’s a tradition in our family to give at least one of some kind but love giving personalized ones the most. Next year I will definitely be ordering from Personalized For You!

I will be getting the two manatee ornaments for a friend of mine. She collects manatees and will love these for her tree. And I love the price. Very reasonable.
Ornaments are one of the big reasons why we miss out not celebrating Christmas. It seems like such a fun tradition for your family and those personalized ornaments are amazing.
Didn’t expect to read something that would make me cry. But I would get one of the kitty memorial ones probably. I lost my kitty back in February and I still miss her. Not sure which one I would choose just yet though.
We love Christmas ornaments, and get a new one every year. Each person in our family picks out a new one. These are great choices.
