pet memorial christmas bauble

chris_n_tj

Can I just add my heartfelt thanks to djp64 (Debbie)

On seeing her post I pm'ed her to ask if she would be kind enough to make me one of her beautiful baubles in memory of TJ (my dog) I didnt want to go down the photo bauble route as I have photos all over and I wanted something different.

This lovely lovely lady made me a one off bauble for TJ and in extra quick time as well.

I am humbled, for a lady to take the time and trouble for me is, well i cant think of enough words to be honest.

Debbie you are a shinning star and I wish you good karma. If ever I can help you in any way please please shout up. Your bauble will be placed with care on our tree. And every year come Christmas I shall remember the lovely lady that made it for my boy as I carefully place it on our tree.

Hi Loopy

I think it is a great idea I know all to well what it is like to lose a fury friend we have gone from 4 dogs to 1 over the last 3 years shame we all have to get old

There are a few others as well here is the google search page:

The ones I have found seem to mainly have a photo installed inside them probably a bit of a printing nightmare to do it any other way.

Thanks so much for listing these. I've just received photo baubles from The Gift Experience with pictures of my beloved cat we lost this year. They are really lovely, not cheap, but beautiful decorations to take pride of place on our tree each year.

not sure if its been mentioned yet but I was in craft world yesterday and they have empty baubles for 75p, they have traditional ball shaped ones plus other funky ones like bells etc. Im planning on going back at the weekend to buy a load and make baubles with photos of loved ones no longer here including our wonderful family cat who sadly passed away last year. Think these might make great gifts too for my mum

as an alternative - and more mse
if you bought some "waterslide decal paper"
you coul easily make your own

you print onto the paper with an inkjet printer - let it dry ( hourish) then cut out and soak in water the image floats off on a clear film and can be applied to any hard surface
a coating of laquer (clear nail varnish) will make it pretty much bomb proof...
also the image can be applied to fabric using white spirit

the uses are endless and I'm often surprised how few people know about this stuff ( about a pound for an a4 sheet on e bay ) or less for multipacks ) its great fun !
