Personalized Ornaments Keep Traditions Alive

**This is a sponsored post on behalf of Ornaments & More.  I did receive two personalized ornaments to review, however, this did not influence my thoughts or opinions.**

Personalized Ornaments Make Memories

Traditions.

Memories.

Family.

All of these things bring one thought to my mind…Christmas.  Yes, I know it’s a few months early but I like to be prepared early for this amazing holiday when the snow is falling and everyone just seems to be in a better mood.  What is up with that right?

One major tradition in my house growing up was that everyone would get a personalized ornament, everyone would get a handpicked personalized ornament for them that signified something major from the year.  My mom would spend months finding the perfect ornament for each of us, going through what I would like to think 100 ornament shops.  With the dawn of a new era, I visit a 100 ornament shops on-line from the comfort of my couch with a steaming cup of coffee in my hand and I try my best to have it done early.

This year I will be prepared early for my two boys by finding a dump truck and bulldozer personalized ornament from Ornaments & More.  Ornaments & More offer free hand personalization with any ornament purchase, which includes a specified name and year.  Ornaments & More offers thousands of ornament choices that will make it easy to remind those you love about something special from the year that they accomplished.  Hand personalized ornaments to celebrate a new marriage, a child’s birth, graduation, heck they even have ornaments for those just because days.

As a family when we decorate the tree we have our “special” ornaments that each person gets to put on the tree and we tell the story of each of those ornaments every year, the stories become ingrained in everyone’s brain!  This tradition continues on in my own house and I am glad to see my husband do it willingly with a fake smile plastered all over his face.  The boys are all smiles every year as they get to find their special ornaments to place on the tree and I get to tell them story of it being the personalized ornament from their first Christmas or that Great Grandma Iva gave them that John Deere tractor ornament for Christmas.

Christmas is a magical time in our little town and most importantly in our house, it brings us together and brings traditions to our lives.  It may be a few months before Christmas but I am always looking to be in the holiday spirit and just shopping for personalized ornaments puts me in a happy mood.

Do you have family traditions that you carry on?  How early do you start your Christmas shopping?  Do you think personalized ornaments are a perfect simple gift?
