I love the feeling of the Christmas holiday season. The day after Thanksgiving, I break out all the holiday decorations and start decking the halls. I especially love decorating the tree and breaking out all the ornaments we collected along the way. Years ago, we started collecting ornaments while on vacation, so I love to see how our tree grows with new milestones and destinations traveled.
This year we had one BIG milestone to add! Like any good mom, I kept the hospital ID tag bracelets that Brielle, Derek and I wore during her birth. They were too bulky to include in her scrapbook, so instead I used them to capture her presence with a keepsake ornament. This will be an ornament I will love to hang up every year! Supplies: Shatterproof plastic ornament | Foam Stickers: Target Dollar Section | Ribbon| Tulle

Great idea! I also made an ornament with the hospital tag as well, but this is so cute! :D
I’d love for you to come by and share this on our Holiday link party if you can here: http://www.urbanejane.com/2013/12/holiday-glam-link-party.html
Thank you for the inspiration :)

Oh boy, I wish that I seen this when my son was born. It is such a great way to preserve your keepsake. Do you think that the plastic ornaments are a better choice than the glass ones?
I found you on the Christmas and Holiday Party where I have the following projects linked;
