Every Christmas I buy each child a keepsake Christmas ornament. From birth on they get a special ornament for that year. I often try to pick an ornament that reflects them during that year, things they like or their personality. For instance this year my three year old daughter really came out of her shell and became a total drama queen. We found the perfect ornament of a deer playing dress up! When we unpack our ornaments each year we get to reflect on years past just from the memories these ornaments bring out.
When my children leave the house it has been my dream to give them a special box filled with their ornaments and decorations that we have collected for them over the years. Finding an ornament storage box had been harder than I originally thought. I didn't want something plastic or something breakable. A lot of thought and money goes into picking out each ornament. Each year we spend anywhere from $10 - $15 dollars on each ornament. Sometimes more! More importantly though I wanted something heirloom quality. I wanted that special look and feel to the box that lets my kids know each year when we pull them out that it is something special. Something that will be all theirs one day.
When I came across Sterling Pear™ and their ornament storage boxes I knew I had found what I was looking for! The Signature Ornament Storage Box has the look, feel and quality I was after. I feel it is important to make a investment in proper storage up front so that your heirlooms are protected over the years. I look forward to pulling these boxes out every year and spending this special time with my kids during Christmas!
