Consider this a last minute holiday decorating idea from Melanie and me! This holiday ornament coloring page is making it just under the wire to be our final monthly coloring page of the year! This is Melanie's third ornament coloring page and you can be sure we will bring you another one next year.
The ornament features two doves... two turtle doves! Perhaps that sprig of leaves is a branch from a pear tree! Whatever story your kids attach to the ornament's illustration, they will enjoy seeing their creation adorning the boughs of the Christmas tree.

The instructions are on the printable but here are a few tips:
- If possible, print on heavy paper, such as card stock.
- Use a glue stick instead of liquid glue to prevent bubbling.
- Use a pretty colorful ribbon or hook a wire directly in the hole.
