Cartoon Family Ornaments
A cartoon family ornament is a little family portrait for the tree. Build each person as a character, choosing hair, skin tone and outfit, then add everyone's name and the year. The live preview updates as you go, so you see the finished family before we print it. Want names without characters? Browse our personalized family ornaments or all ornaments.

How to Build Your Cartoon Family
Take a minute to match each character to the real person; it's the details people notice when they unwrap it.
- Hair and skin tone first. They do most of the work of making a character recognizable.
- Outfits that fit the season. Matching pajamas or Christmas sweaters look festive on the tree.
- Kids by size. Order them from oldest to youngest so the lineup reads naturally.
- Names under each figure. Short nicknames often fit better than full names.
A New Ornament Every Year
Because the characters change with the family, a cartoon ornament is easy to repeat each December: a new baby, a new haircut, a grown-up kid. Lined up on the tree, they turn into a timeline of your family. They also make a warm gift for the people who love those faces most; pair one with our grandkids ornaments for grandparents.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a cartoon family ornament?
It's an ornament printed with illustrated versions of your family members instead of a photo. You choose how each character looks and add their names, so it feels personal without needing a picture.
Can I choose how each person looks?
Yes. The personalization steps let you pick features such as hair, skin tone and clothing for each character, and the preview shows every change.
Is a cartoon ornament better than a photo ornament?
It depends on the look you want. A cartoon ornament is playful and never depends on getting a good picture of everyone; a photo ornament captures real faces.
Can I make one for a big family?
Many designs let you pick the number of people. Check the options in the personalizer to see how many characters a design holds.
