Thinking of handmade ways to decorate our home for the holidays. One of my favorite things to do is create ornaments. It’s also something festive to do with our kids! I’ve always thought having an ornament-making party would be such fun. Maybe I will organize one this year.

Here are 16 JUBILANT ornaments to get us in a festive spirit!

I kept the album simple. I cut 6″x6″ squares from heavy cardstock, punched holes in the sides and bound all the pages together with metal rings (tied with ribbon to up the cuteness factor, of course). With this style of album, when I run out of pages in the future, it will be really easy to add more.

I took photos of each of the ornaments. I edited them in Photoshop so that two pictures would fit on a standard 4×6″ print. After I had them printed, I cut the photos in half!

The smaller size works better for a mini album, plus the cost for printing was also cut in half.

I decided that I wanted the story of each ornament to be behind the photo, so I made fold-over mattes for each photo from cardstock.

Now each photo folds up with the perfect space for writing!

I also made a bunch of blank pages to use in upcoming years.

This mini album took hardly any time to put together, but I am so glad to know that my memories will be safely preserved for many years to come. Before you take your tree down this year, take some time to make your own scrapbook so you can keep your own holiday memories alive!
