Idea I had

edited March 2014 in Late Term and Child Loss
I usually make Christmas ornaments for new members of my extended family. The ornaments are made out of recycled paper. This year I was thinking of making one for Nathaniel made from envelopes from cards we got, his registry list, invoices from gifts that came in the mail, and flowers from his memorial service. I was going to make one for us and maybe for each of the grandparents. Usually I make them bear shaped for new babies, but I was thinking of making them doves or stars or something. 

I was thinking that these might be something that I could make for other families. Does it sound like something that you personally would like to have? I usually write the baby's name on them, but could write anything. I am thinking I would make them for my loss group at the hospital and you ladies. What do you think? 

I attached a picture of some I had made previously. I don't know what color these would be. Maybe blue and pink.
