I love having (and making) ornaments with pictures of family members during the holidays. It's so fun to go through the old ornaments each other and marvel about how much people have grown or changed. I was inspired to make this little mini-album ornament after finding some great mini chipboard coasters at Michaels. They were in the $1 section (4 coasters in each set). How could I resist? The rest of the items were from my stash of scrapbooking supplies. I punched a hole into each coaster and then put the green brad through the holes to keep it together. You could also put ribbon through the hole to hold it all together.
My parents have three grandkids so I glued a picture on each coaster (one coaster for each grandkid) and then added an extra one on the back so you can see the design.
A simple, fun and lovely project that would make a great Christmas gift.
Happy crafing!

Great idea! I may have to include this one for our long distance relatives.
