I Illustrated a Children’s Book! A look inside AND how to make ornaments from the book

Here’s a look inside the children’s book I illustrated: The Jesse Tree for Families by Colleen Pressprich. This is a great resource that your family can use during Advent in preparation for Christmas!

This book was a labor of love for both Colleen and myself. It was years in the making with publishing delays, but it’s finally here and I truly think it will be a gift for your family. Colleen did a great job of making the Jesse Tree tradition easy and accessible for families.

From December 1-24th, you read a short passage about a biblical figure or one of the O Antiphons. There is a “Note for Parents” section that helps provide extra context as well as some optional conversation starters. The best thing about the book is that it comes with 2 sets of Jesse Tree ornaments that you can cut out and hang on your tree. I included a quick tutorial in my YouTube video showing 2 different options you can try out to make your ornaments more of an heirloom quality.

SUPPLIES:

Whitewash Wood Ornament Bulbs
Round Picture Frame Ornaments
Mod Podge Matte Finish
Acrylic Paint
Brushes or Foam Brush
Scissors
Heavy books to weight down your ornaments

My mom used a 3 inch hole punch like this one to help cut the ornaments faster
