Keepsake Ornaments with Display Piece
With Christmas only hours away. these merry little elves are busy loading Santa's sleigh with toys. Just like Santa's elves, the Keepsake Ornament studio artists have joined together to create this exquisite 1998 Keepsake Ornament Studio Edition. Each artist contributed to the design, adding humor, nostalgic details, and lots of holiday cheer. On ornament: Thanks for celebrating 25 years of collecting memories with Hallmark.
In preparation for Christmas Eve, three little elves load Santa’s sleigh. One elf stands atop Santa’s sleigh and directs the loading of Santa’s leather sack while a teddy bear sneaks out of the open bag to catch a glimpse of the bunny cautiously sniffing a duck pull-toy that is resting in the snow. A wrapped gift, a toy barn, and a locomotive sit in the bag. The second elf loads a wrapped gift onto the sleigh as the third inspects some reins while a bird and a bunny watch. A puppy–sitting on a blanket on the seat, next to Santa’s book of Good Boys and Girls–hangs over the edge of the sleigh curiously watching a pair of chipmunks playing hide and seek among the sleigh runners. A Victorian doll, a drum, and a top rests beside the sleigh waiting to be loaded. Six other toys (miniature ornaments) including: a police car, a horn, an airplane, a nutcracker, a rocking horse, and a ship are also ready to be added to the sack (or can be displayed separately.) Just below the sleigh, a pair of bluebirds watch the whole scene.

“I only I could fly…” For centuries mankind could only watch and dream as birds soared effortlessly above the earth. Eager inventors produced an amazing array of winged flying machines. But it wasn’t until December 17, 1903 that—for the first time—a heavier-than-air craft took off, made a sustained flight, and landed safely. The biplane, designed and built by American brothers Wilbur and Orville Wright, was powered by a four-cylinder, 12-HP engine. It flew a distance of 120 feet in 12 seconds. This Keepsake Ornament series will highlight historic events in aviation, creating a unique air show for your tree.
