Giveaway: Adorable Personalized Ornament!

This post may contain affiliate links for your convenience. Read my full disclosure policy here.

I’ve been admiring Angela’s handpainted personalized ornaments from her Etsy shop, CutNGlue, for some time now.  I’ve been following her blog and know these are flying off her virtual shelves– and with good reason!  I was thrilled when she offered a personalized name ornament to give away to a Making Lemonade reader because I think they add a wonderful personal touch to your holiday.  If you win, you’ll get one similar to the style in the first three photos (with your chosen name of course).  Honestly, I can’t wait to see my daughter’s name on one!

I could go on and on about how fabulous they are, but I think the photos speak for themselves:

In addition to the handpainted names, she also offers initials:

I think these would be great gifts for just about anyone on your Christmas list.  They could be gift tags, added as a final touch to your gifts.  They’d make great party favors too, and as Angela suggested you could fill a bowl with them and have that as a centerpiece.  I also thought it would be fun to buy a few and spell out a word or a name… NOEL, JOY, PEACE all come to mind.  Or maybe your last name, and hang them from a window?  See, so many ideas!

All of the ornaments come individually boxed and ready for gift giving.  I’m sure you can think of plenty of people on your list that would love one!  But first, enter to win your own handpainted name ornament below– just in time for the holidays!

  25. This will be our 2nd year for Christmas married. I would get our last name. This is a tradition I’m wanting to start. Buy an ornament personalized or something.

  44. I just read your germ-a-phobe post and commented on it. I’m on your side. And then coming back here to post so you could enter me yet again I noticed your previous post with your list of a million and one things to do…lol. You are truly ambitious! Good for you. The bathroom is really coming along.

  45. Although it sounds easy…it’s hard to pick, with 3 kids!! If pearson would fit, I would do that [for our last name]. If not, I’d pick Nola, my youngest, as I felt guilty that she didn’t get a baby’s first Christmas ornament last year! [Can this count ;)]
