Thanks to I See Me! for sponsoring this discussion on personalized Christmas gifts. All opinions are my own.
At our house we collect Christmas ornaments from around the world during our travels. We have been collecting ornaments for 13 years and have gotten ornaments in several countries around the world including South Korea, Japan, Mexico, Italy, Austria, Hungary, London, the Bahamas, Germany, and tons from the USA. While our ornaments and tree may look like a random collection, because we do have things like snowmen next to pirates and car ornaments next to a guitar ornament, they all have one thing in common: a happy memory.
Each of our ornaments tells a story of a trip or an experience. They each have a special meaning to us. Our tree might not be the most glamorous, but it definitely is the most meaningful. It is the most personalized.
I also think they personalized ornaments would make awesome presents for relatives that are far. Add a family photo or use the kids school pictures and send the ornament off as a gift. I can’t think of a better way to decorate my tree than with my loved ones faces on it.

Oh my goodness these ornaments are absolutely precious!I would love to do this with my kids this year! I am really looking forward to putting up the tree and doing the decorating!
Jennifer says
my kids get a new ornament every year. I love how cute and personalized these are. Maybe start a new tradition to remember what the kids looked like on Christmas day with a new ornament every year.

Those personalized ornaments are just precious. I really enjoy your whole Christmas tree theme of “memories”. It makes it more personal and special than a matching set of ornaments. It makes it more fun to look at and pick out all the memories!
Tiffany says
I love this idea! We always try to personalize our tree by getting an ornament each year for each of us – one that means something to us personally but I love this way to help bring in the entire family even more. Thanks so much for sharing!

I love personalized gifts on every occasion, especially on Christmas. All these make me think that the person who gifted to me really poured their heart and soul into it. Our family has its own tradition with the snow globes where we add all kind of fun memories.

I cant believe Christmas time is back around already! I want to have a tree trimming party this year. A personalize ornament for everyone would be a beautiful adornment to the tree this year!

I love picking up new ornaments when we travel it always makes our tree so unique! We have also picked them up for other family members as well. Photos are perfect for making ornaments to make the Christmas tree more personal.
