Trimming Up the Tree with Photo Ornaments

I can remember making all kinds of Christmas tree ornaments when I was in elementary school. Some were better than others. Probably the worst was a star-shaped glue mold that had multi-colored glitter in it and blazing red yarn that keep unraveling. Eew. I think we finally parted with it a few short years after it made its way home.

I even had a friend whose mom dedicated a whole tree just to the ornaments that her kids brought home from school. While I’m sure she adored their handiwork, I suspect that she didn’t want their rudimentary creations competing with her more sophisticated tree in the formal living room that had all the decadent store-bought ornaments. She was clever that way.

There’s a good compromise on this issue though. You can have a tree with personalization and with something you’ve created, and without having to look at tree full of glue molds and construction paper! I personally love these photo ornaments from Snapfish. You can choose your best photos from the year and place them in one of the ornament frames or have them embedded into a classic ball ornament. They start at $9.99 and are sure to be treasured for a lifetime. They even make great gifts for new couples, families with new babies, and grandparents.

This is the kind of ornament that I love to pull out of the Christmas stash year after year. After putting all the decorations away, I tend to forget what beautiful, meaningful decorations we have (it’s that old saying - outta sight, outta mind) and I’m surprised again as we unpack everything the next December.

To turn an everyday photo into a holiday keepsake, start designing here.

Hope you’re enjoying this holiday season with your loved ones. And if you haven’t gotten your holiday cards to send to friends near and far yet, FedEx Office is offering free rush delivery today through Dec. 20!
