Homemade Christmas Keepsake Ornaments

12/02/2013 by Katie Leave a Comment

My absolute favorite Christmas ornaments are those that are handmade, with the majority of them being from my son.  Each year he makes me a new ornament and every December my heart melts again when I put it on the tree.  And at almost 12 years old he is still proud to show everyone which ones he made.

This year make a keepsake ornament for those you love.

   This keepsake ornament is perfect for friends or family who had a baby or got married this year.   The best part is, you can put any type of keepsake inside, children’s artwork, baby shower invite, old concert tickets, or a cool napkin from vacation.  Ideas to stuff the ornament with are endless.

Not only does this gift take less than 20 minutes but it costs less than $1.00 each.  Hallmark can’t even touch that!

Here’s what ya need.

Glass ornaments. Michaels had a 4 pack for reg $4.99 on sale for $2.50!

Invitation or other keepsake.

Cut the keepsake into thin strips about ¼ of an inch. Remove the top of the ornament. One by one place the strips in the hole, if the strips are too large, roll them around your pink, and squeeze into the hole.  The rolled paper looks beautiful inside. Replace the top and tie with a coordinating bow.


Wrap well in tissue paper and package in a take-out box.  Done!

WELCOME TO THE FARM

Hi, I’m Katie. Our family lives on our fourth generation family farm here in beautiful Idaho. We milk jersey cows, raise pastured heritage pigs and poultry, scottish highlanders for beef and a few sheep for fiber.  Our journey is about healing the body through sustainable agriculture.  After being diagnosed with a autoimmune disease several years ago, I saw a need to change the way we think about diseases in today’s modern world.

Our farm prides ourselves on selling the best meat and dairy possibly.  We do not use ANY gmo’s, corn or soy in our animal feed.  Our critters graze on fresh green pasture and are fed a locally grown, locally milled grain ration.

Our products are available farm direct or at select retail locations.
