Ribbon Height Keepsake Ornament – Free Printable

This Ribbon Height Keepsake Ornament is very special indeed! Capture your child’s height in a unique and one-of-a-kind keepsake way! I’ve even included a few printable below to get you started!!! #gluedtomycrafts

I can’t take all the credit on this one. This DIY height ornament is actually something my son’s 1st grade teacher did with her class, this past Christmas holiday.

When it came home to us, I immediately thought “This is sooooo cute.” Then it dawned on me – “Oh My God! I need to recreate this and share it with my readers ASAP!”

And with Valentine’s Day right around the corner, I couldn’t wait!  I thought this idea could go beyond the traditional Christmas tree ornament and be a great keepsake for the lovestruck holiday, maybe even Mother’s Day!

Find the easy steps and FREE PRINTABLE below!

Happy crafting and gifting my friends! I hope you treasure your piece for years to come! #gluedtomycrafts

To recreate this ribbon height ornament – simply download our FREE PRINTABLE {for in the classroom setting HERE or you can resize this single stand-alone file HERE} and print it in color on some white cardstock.

Trim out the gift tag{s} from the printable. Have kids fill in the blanks on the tag. Laminate it if desired.

Add a hole punch to one side of the tag.

Now take your plastic ornament {any size or shape – here is a good affiliate link to some on Amazon} and take the top off. Set it all aside.

Take your ribbon and measure your child with it from head to toe. Using scissors, trim down the ribbon to the same exact size of them your child.

Now stuff the ribbon inside the plastic ornament. Add some glitter inside the ornament for extra sparkle if desired!

Close up the plastic ornament and attach the finished gift tag to the ornament with additional ribbon or twine.

Then display or gift away!
