Holiday Ideas - Day Twenty-Five - Create a Personalized Christmas Ornament

Tuesday December 25, 2007
One year I stitched up a bunch of ornaments that were very special. The little pattern was a beagle with a red ribbon who just happened to look just like our beloved beagle (may he rest in peace) Sam. I stitched the word "Sam" under the motif and gave the ornaments to friends and family. I still have people comment on those ornaments. Sam was much loved.

Create your own special memory with a personalized ornament. Whether you use graph paper or computer software to create the ornament, the gifts will be much treasured by those who receive them. Stitch a representation of your pet, your home, or add your family name and the date to a simple motif. Start a Christmas tradition to last a lifetime.
