Dog Christmas bauble with your own name – the Christmas tree’s most beloved decoration
The Christmas tree fills with beautiful decorations, but the dearest ones are those with a personal story. When a dog is an important part of the family, it deserves its own place on the Christmas tree.
A dog Christmas ball made with your own name and breed silhouette makes the Christmas tree uniquely yours. It’s not just a decoration for one Christmas but a small memory of a beloved friend – an ornament that is joyfully brought out year after year.
The most beloved Christmas decorations aren’t the shiniest ones, but those that remind us of something dear.
When a dog is a family member, it deserves its own Christmas ball
The dog is part of ordinary mornings, busy days, holidays, and quiet evenings at home. It waits at the door, joins you on walks, and can brighten your day just by being there.
For many, a dog is not just a pet but one of the family’s dearest members. That’s why a dog’s own Christmas ornament feels so special. When a Christmas ball with the dog’s name and breed silhouette is hung on the tree, the family’s four-legged friend also gets a visible place in the shared Christmas celebration.
The dog Christmas ball is also perfect as a keepsake for your first Christmas together. Later, the same ornament will remind you of the puppy’s first Christmases, winter walks, and all the little moments that build a shared life.
Your own name makes the ornament truly personal
You can find an ordinary Christmas ball almost anywhere. But a personalized ornament made with your own dog's name is made just for one dog.
The name is designed as part of the Christmas ball's overall look to make the ornament beautiful, balanced, and easily recognizable. The result is a unique Christmas decoration you won’t find straight off a department store shelf.
A dog's name also makes the ornament special as a gift. When the recipient sees their own dog's name cut into the wooden ornament for the first time, the gift immediately feels personal and thoughtful.
A small detail, a big meaning: your own name turns a beautiful Christmas ornament into a keepsake of your very own dog.
Choose from 99 dog breeds
Eco Decor's selection includes 99 different dog breeds. It features small companion dogs, hunting dogs, herding dogs, as well as large and striking breeds.
Each silhouette aims to highlight the breed's distinctive features. It could be a fluffy tail, long ears, a proud posture, a strong build, or the breed's characteristic way of moving.
Choose the breed silhouette that best matches your dog and add your dog's name to the ornament. If you can't find a suitable breed or silhouette in the selection, we can also create a custom silhouette based on a photo you send.
Wooden Christmas decoration made in Finland
Dog Christmas balls are made in Finland at Eco Decor’s own workshop. Each ornament is laser-cut to order and carefully finished before shipping.
We use 3-millimeter birch plywood as the material. The light surface of the birch fits beautifully with natural, Scandinavian, and traditional Christmas decor. The slightly darker shade of the laser-cut edge highlights the details of the name and silhouette.
The diameter of the Christmas ball is about 8 centimeters. It stands out well on the tree but is also light and easy to hang on both large and small Christmas trees.
A lovely Christmas gift for a dog owner
Finding the right Christmas gift for someone who loves their dog can be surprisingly difficult. There are many common dog-themed products, but not all feel genuinely personal.
A Christmas ball made with the dog's name shows that the gift has truly been thought through. It is suitable as a gift for a spouse, friend, parent, breeder, or anyone for whom their own dog is important.
The dog Christmas ball can be given as is or attached to the gift package instead of a regular gift tag. When the package is opened, the ornament does not end up in the paper recycling but stays with the gift recipient to be used every Christmas.
A Christmas ball can also be a cherished memory
Christmas decorations accumulate much more over time than one might think on the first Christmas. When the same ornament is brought out year after year, a whole story begins to form around it.
Each dog in the family can have its own Christmas ball. This way, a small collection gradually forms on the Christmas tree, telling the story of the family's beloved four-legged members.
The memory of a deceased dog can also be included in Christmas. The selection includes dog Christmas balls to which wings can be added as a memorial. The ornament can be a beautiful and subtle way to remember a dog who is no longer physically present but whose place in the family remains.
Hang it on the tree, wreath, or gift package
The dog Christmas ball is designed as a Christmas tree ornament, but it can be used in many other ways as well.
It looks beautiful, for example, in a pine wreath, on a single pine branch, in a Christmas arrangement, or on top of a gift package. An ornament made with a name also makes a simple wreath personal.
The birch plywood ornament should be placed indoors or in a dry, sheltered spot to keep it looking beautiful as long as possible.
