Siamese Cat Christmas Ornaments

I’ll confess that I’ve never owned a Siamese cat before, but I do think they’re beautiful especially the seal point and chocolate point varieties. Anyone who owns one is bound to love these Siamese cat Christmas ornaments.

Siamese Cat Christmas Ornament

Let’s face it not only are cats part of the family, but they’re usually the interesting members of the family!!! For this reason alone they should have some say in the Christmas decorating and I don’t know about your Siamese, but my late cat would have showered the Christmas tree with cat ornaments if he had his way 😀

These ornaments are also a great gift idea for any cat lover, they seem to add a touch of class to the holiday with their regal stance and cool blue stare.

Gorgeous Siamese Cat Christmas Ornaments

These ornaments are designed to make cat owners fall in love with them – they’re just so cute! The great thing these ornaments have over your cat is that they won’t tip the tree over when they’re placed on it – your cat on the other hand…….. let’s just say my late cat used to think that we’d brought him some inside adventure playground equipment for the holidays!

The funniest thing was when something was knocked off of the tree or even if he was caught swinging on the branches he would have this way of looking from us to the dog and back as though to say – ‘the dog did it honestly!’

These next Christmas ornaments are all available through a company called Zazzle who uses an amazing printing process that results in wonderfully clear, crisp images. All bar one of these ornaments are made of a white ceramic and come complete with the ribbon to hang them on your tree with.

The sole one that’s different is the one that looks like it’s been framed – it’s a silver colored metal (not actual silver) that looks just a tad more expensive (great if you’re looking to get one as a gift!).

All of these designs can be brought in any of these ornaments so if you want the square silver colored metal ornament, but you like the image on the first ornament here then you can select the image you like and change the ornament type on the page it’ll take you too – very easy!

Gardening Christmas Ornaments

Christmas Ornaments for the Gardener You Know

If you love gardening then why not show off your hobby on your Christmas tree? Hanging one of these beautiful gardening Christmas ornaments will let everyone know how you enjoy spending your weekends.

Green Thumb Gardening Ornaments

Gardening Christmas ornaments also make great gift ideas for the gardeners in your life. I know a number of people that would love to receive one of these ornaments as a gift and who knows you may be rewarded with some free vegetables – win/win 🙂

I was amazed at how many really great gardening Chistmas ornaments were available online and although my gardening has taken a backseat since discovering snakes in the garden – the whole thing is more stress inducing than stress releasing these days – I would still love to hang one of these ornaments on our tree.

My father-in-law was a great gardener and used to give us lots of vegetables from his ample veggie garden….after I mentioned liking radishes in conversation one day he went out and planted a row of radishes 🙂 Wow, I’d just thought about that as I was typing so I definitely think we need to put a gardening ornament on our Christmas tree in his memory.

A Cool Gardening Christmas Ornament

I love this Christmas ornament – a snowman watering a Christmas tree – you really can’t get much more Christmas than that……unless you had Santa watering the tree that is!

Hallmark Gardening Christmas Ornament

A Very Cute Gardener!

I have seen a few different animals in my garden….especially since I moved to Australia, but I’ve never seen an elephant in a garden especially not such a cute one as this 1993 Hallmark gardening Christmas ornament represents.
Hallmark Big on Gardening 1993 Keepsake Ornament

I think Hallmark have really outdone themselves with this cute ornament although it’s not the only animal inspired gardening ornament that they have come out with over the years.

I have also seen a mouse inside a gardening glove which is cute, but you don’t want mice in the garden or on the tree do you?

 

I’ll leave you with one more ornament that says it all really –

Hannah Montana Christmas Ornaments

Hannah Montana 2009 Hallmark Ornament

A great idea is to get have Christmas ornaments that are very special, for example what your child loves that particular year. This year having a tween-age daughter Hannah Montana rules! By buying a Hannah Montana Christmas Ornament for our tree I’ll make her Christmas this year. In future years to come we can look at it and say things like – “…do you remember when you wanted to be Hannah Montana…” Let’s face it Christmas is all about sharing family memories

I wish I’d thought of this idea earlier as we’d have Wiggles ornaments, Dora the Explorer decorations and Bratz ornaments already on our tree!

Out of all of the Hannah Montana ornaments available I must admit I like this featured one, hardly a surprise to learn that it’s by Hallmark as they bring out great Christmas ornaments every year!

Hannah Montana Guitar Ornaments

Hannah Montana not only sings, she also knows how to play the guitar which could’ve been another reason for my daughter loving her as she also plays guitar.   To be honest though I think it was all about the idea of being a secret pop star that sold her on Hannah!

There are some really cute Hannah Montana guitar ornaments available to hang on your tree like these –

 

 Disney Hannah Montana Christmas Ornament Lenox The Hannah Montana Rockin Holiday Ornament Disney Jeweled Hannah Montana Guitar Christmas Ornament

The great thing about these ornaments is that you can also let your daughter use them as room decor in her bedroom when they’re not on the tree. Once she grows out of Hannah simply wrap them up safely with the other Christmas ornaments and just bring them out once a year accompanied by choruses of ‘oh mom, not the Hannah ornaments they’re so lame….’ etc. As they continue to get older the choruses will change to things like ‘oh do you remember when I absolutely loved Hannah?’ etc.

Check out a few more Hannah Montana Christmas ornaments that would be perfect for lighting up the face of any little Hannah fan.

To complete a Hannah Montana tree you could add microphone ornaments, acoustic guitar ornaments, star Christmas ornaments and butterfly ornaments. Mainly, though choose one of her color schemes (preferably your daughter’s favorite one) and stick with that on the tree. If you just want to add to your family tree then just one or two of the ornaments featured here would be perfect.

Guitar Christmas Ornaments

Lot of 12 Resin Guitar Christmas Tree Holliday Ornaments

Are you looking for guitar Christmas ornaments? If so you’ve found a great collection from acoustic guitar ornaments to electric guitar ornaments these Christmas ornaments are just perfect for guitar enthusiasts of all ages.

Guitar Christmas ornaments also make great gift ideas for music teachers or guitar playing family members and/or friends. I know my daughter has been asking for a cool electric guitar Christmas ornament for a while now……….she may just be getting one in her stocking this year, according to Santa!

I think it would be cool to have a whole tree decked out in a musical theme, not just guitars, but a whole ‘band’ of ornaments. I’m pretty sure both dd and dh would love this idea as well so it could happen in our household – what about yours? The first step towards a truly musical tree is to pick your favorite guitar ornament so let’s have a look at what’s available…….

Electric Guitar Christmas Ornaments

There are so many different types of electric guitars available that it’s hardly any surprise that the amount of different electric guitar Christmas ornaments is also huge. Here is a selection of some of the great electric guitar Christmas ornaments that are available to purchase online. Click the guitar ornament that you like for more information and the chance to see a larger picture.

Cute Pink & Purple Guitar Ornaments That Rock!

Now I must be honest if I brought my daughter either of these guitar Christmas ornaments she probably wouldn’t be very impressed with me as she’s more into black electric guitars or even flames on guitars, not what she would refer to as a ‘girly girl’ guitar!

However, I do know that one of her friends would love the pink guitar Christmas ornament so if you know a tween who still likes pink & purple even if she enjoys rocking out on her guitar then these can make a great choice as a Christmas ornament.

 More Electric Guitar Ornaments

These guitar Christmas ornaments are a little different in that they’re not shaped like guitars, but instead are images of guitars on ceramic shapes – choose from oval, heart, round or star. There are some really cool ones and some can even be personalized which would make them a great gift idea.

Acoustic Guitar Christmas Ornaments

I love the sound of acoustic guitars and I made my daughter learn on an acoustic before she got her electric as I think it’s great to be able to play an instrument that is fairly portable and she now loves playing both which is great. There aren’t as many acoustic guitar Christmas ornaments available as there are electric ones, but I’ve managed to get a small selection for you to choose from.

Just click on the acoustic guitar Christmas ornament that you like for more information about the product and/or simply to purchase it!

I must admit I would love the s’mores ornament as I remember being at school camp sitting around the camp fire with someone playing guitar and us all singing along – what else goes with camping? Why s’mores of course!

Sets of Guitar Christmas Tree Ornaments

Using sets of these ornaments help the whole tree to look musical, whether you choose to decorate with acoustic, electric or a mix of guitars these Christmas ornament sets are great.

It’s also great to get a set because a single guitar can look very lonely so if you’re only just starting with this rocking style of decoration a set will be a great starting point and you can add a new single ornament every following holiday season until your tree is droning under guitars!!

Don’t forget you can add clefs and musical notes on the tree as well either in the form of store brought ornaments or make your own from air dried clay or even music inspired cookie cutters tied on the tree with ribbons.

Fox Christmas Ornaments

Fair Trade Finger Puppet Fox Christmas Tree Ornament Dzi Wild Woolie

I read an article the other day that suggested that this holiday season would be the year of the fox aka lots of fox ornaments on people’s Christmas trees.

Now I can’t really think what’s Christmassy about foxes, but I must admit they do look cute! The one to my left reminds me a little bit of Basil Brush who gave me a lot of laughs during my childhood – perhaps that’s part of the reason I think foxes are cute?

If you have never heard of Basil Brush then do google him, although he doesn’t seem quite as funny these days it will give you an insight to a whole generation of children going, ‘boom boom!’

I like the idea of incorporating a fox theme with other woodland animals for a country themed tree. If you don’t like the puppet/ornament here then I have some more below for you to choose from that I think are pretty cool.

Of course there are other fox ornaments available including fun looking fox ornaments like the ones featured on the image below –

 

Fox Christmas Ornaments

 

Of course there are other fox Christmas ornaments available including fun, realistic and vintage style foxes so be sure to check them out if you think this is a theme that would suit your tree.

If you do go down this style of decorating I would recommend a traditional green tree and add pine cone ornaments or burlap ornaments as well as the foxes whether you add other animals as well.   This will give your tree a rustic charm that will look fantastic for the holidays.
