Time Capsule Memory Ornaments

This Christmas I made a unique memory ornament to remind me every Christmas of a moment in time captured forever, my wedding day.
You can make one to capture any favorite moment you want to remember whether it's your wedding, first baby, hobby or a favorite pet.
Whats great about these personalized ornaments is they are very cheap to make and most of the supplies you need you already have.
So there's no need to go out and buy an expensive ornament to remember your special day.
Just create one of your own by by following these few easy steps.
First I took a three inch in diameter glass ornament and pulled the top off, then I gathered all the materials I wanted to use for my own personalized memory ornament.
After my wedding I had a ton of poppers left over so I took one and popped it then put all of the confetti into the glass ornament.
I used two poppers to get a fuller look.
Next I cut a two by two inch square of each type of fabric on my wedding dress and placed it neatly into the glass ornament.
Note use zig zag scissors to keep fabric from fraying.
Then I printed out my favorite wedding picture in a three inch by three inch size and placed it in the ornament.
The last item I placed in the ornament was single small yellow rose from my bridal bouquet that I had dried out a week before.
Once every thing you want is in just pop the top back on.
With some thin ribbon add a year charm of the year you want to remember and tie it through the loop of the ornament.
For a finishing touch take some thicker sheer wired ribbon and tie a big bow at the top.
Now you have your own ornament to remind you every Christmas of a very special day or time in your life.
These personalized unique Christmas ornaments can capture any memory you would like to preserve and best of all you can make several different ones because life is full of memory's worth remembering.
So get creative with yours for a truly unique ornament.
What Materials You Will Need To Get Started: One three inch glass ornament Materials from the event you want to remember A picture of the event 1/16" Ribbon 11/2" Wired ribbon One year charm
