Since it's nearing that great time of the year, I started perusing eBay to drool over some Christmas ornaments. (As if I don't have enough already.) But as I typed in my search terms, I realized that there are lots of different types of ornaments out there. Which got me wondering.
What is your favorite/preferred type of ornament? (Mine is blown glass!)

Blown glass has to be mine, too. Although my absolute dream is to have a selection of hallow's eve tree blown glass ornaments, too.

Our tree is very traditional glass ball Red and Gold with some glittered snowflakes. I would have to say though that I love the 1 red glass ornament on my Charlie Brown Tree I picked up at Fred Meyers awhile back. I also like 80s genre cartoon ornaments :) tacky yet fun

I hate to bump, but I'm in love with the Kurt S. Alder blown glass ornaments. They're just so well-crafted; I spent a good half hour looking at them in TJ Maxx.

I love any ornament with irradescent glitter! ( my main tree is gorgeous to!) But my real favs are the personalized ones, with my sons names etc...

I like the Hallmark ornaments that move & play music. I have about 7 blown glass ornaments I really like them but I don't use them that often because I have a cat that loves to mess with my tree & I'm afraid he will break one. As soon as I have enough I'm going to get ornament hanger/stands & put them in a curio cabinet.

Anything shiny/sparkly, but I like the round glass balls the best.

Our tree is decorated by the kids each year. We have older ornaments handed down by family. We also allow the kids to pick out 1 special ornament each year that gets added to the collection.

My faves are the ones we've collected on our vacations throughout the years. Out of those, I favor the ones from DisneyWorld the most.
