Buying Personalized Christmas Ornaments

Personalizing Christmas ornaments can be done in a variety of ways. Hand making an ornament from craft foam, cloth, wood or clay is one way to make a personalized Christmas ornament. Many gift and craft stores also sell pre-made Christmas ornaments that are designed for personalization. These specialty stores often offer in-house personalization services.

Plain or solid color glass ball ornaments are also easy to personalize by adding a name with permanent markers or glitter pens, or by decorating the glass ball with a special design using acrylic paint.

Start a holiday tradition with a personalized family Christmas ornament. Available in a variety of designs, personalized family Christmas ornaments vary widely. Common designs include groupings of jolly snowmen and collages of reindeer antlers. A family of snowmen might have space for personalization on their hats or scarves, while a family of reindeer might have blank space for personalization on their bodies.

Personalized ornaments aren’t just for families. Celebrate a teacher or special friend; honor a service person or a family member; commemorate a special occasion or year by personalizing a Christmas ornament. Personalized ornaments are available in a variety of styles including pre-made ceramic holiday forms, plain ceramic ornaments, cloth styles, wood frames and more.

Personalizing Christmas ornaments is a great family or group activity. Set out a variety of supplies and let each person create their own unique personalized Christmas ornament. Supplies that might be provided to create personalized ornaments include: plain or clear glass ball ornaments, a variety of holiday shaped craft foam pieces, permanent markers, glitter pens, glitter and glue, acrylic paints and ribbon.
