Craft Week: Dog Christmas Portrait & Glass Ornament
We are getting an early start on 3rd annual and most popular craft by far — Christmas Ornaments! With nearly 200 portraits taken and ornaments crafted last year, we want to make sure we have ample time to create cherished treasures that we are proud of.
For the entire week, we capture each participating pup’s holiday spirit with a festive portrait & then encase it in a 2026 glass ornament. The package includes the digital copy of your pup’s picture! This year, our theme involves Christmas lights and Santa hats (if tolerated). Like in previous years, your pup will appear suspended in the center of the ornament.
Our ornaments are an intense & crafty labor of love and will cost $30. If you wish to purchase a second ornament of the same dog, you can for a reduced price of $15, as the portrait and ornament image has already been created. We hope to get them into your hands and on your trees by the first week of December!
This tends to be our most popular craft of the year & supplies are limited, so book your daycare ahead of time!
