Turn Baby Socks into Keepsakes

By Noreen 11 Comments




By Noreen Doll.

For a fun Christmas tree ornament, as well as a cherished keepsake, hang your little one’s first pair of socks on the tree.

Crafty Journal - Baby Sock Christmas Ornament

They make darling little Christmas stockings.

Comparing that tiny sock with the current size of your offspring’s foot can be fun for the whole family – especially the owner of that foot!

It would be extra special if you take a photo of the baby wearing the socks.

Or maybe for fun, take a photo of the baby sock on the big toe of the now grown owner.

    Oh, I love this, Noreen! You can also sew or glue on a picture of the child wearing them. I made a memory hat out of my granddaughter’s winter hat. I printed out pictures on fabric of her wearing the hat in the snow and then sewed them on the hat. It’s on my blog from years ago. I didn’t think of socks but I’ll keep that in mind for Christmas ornaments! Keep cool. Linda

    I love this!!! Now I can save one more thing from my kids and I feel like a little less of a hoarder because it is both cute and useful 🙂

    Very cute and sweet !! I have made little coin purses out of baby socks but the ornament idea really appeals to me.

    What a sweet idea. I have 2 of my diaper pins (how old am I?!) that we hang on our tree as a novelty. Thanks for sharing it.
