She was able to customize the ornament for a gift. It truly turned out so wonderful! And I received the item way before I had expected it. It is just so precious and the quality is so nice!

Louisa May Alcott's Little Women
A Little Women ornament with Alcott's happy old maids line, personalized
Dear gift giver,
- Is the tree full of baubles that say nothing about the family under it?
- Shopping for a reader who needs exactly zero more mugs?
- Want Alcott's sharpest line back on the tree every December?
Most ornaments are filler. This one is a keepsake..... the vintage Lily Series cover among white lilies on the front, Alcott's happy old maids line on the back, and her name and year printed right in.
Small gift, long memory.

Before you ask
Little Women ornament questions, answered
Is this a good Little Women ornament for a gift?
Yes, and here's why. It pairs the vintage cover with a real Alcott line and her name printed into the design, so it lands as a keepsake rather than a bauble. It's a favorite for the happily single friend, the book club, and any reader who quotes Alcott right back at you.
What is it made of, and can it be personalized?
Round white ceramic with a smooth glossy finish and a gold ribbon included. Personalized with the name and year you enter, printed front only or front and back..... your call at checkout.
When should I order it for Christmas?
Each ornament is made to order in 2 to 5 business days, then ships from the USA. Order by early December to trim the tree on time, earlier if you are mailing it onward.
Does it only work at Christmas?
Mostly, and that is its charm. Some readers hang it on a bookshelf ledge year round, but December is when it earns its keep.
Give Alcott the last word
Made to order, one ornament at a time, for the reader who took the old maids line as a compliment.
