Sweet Santa

This jolly Santa by Hallmark Artist Terri Steiger has just finished baking the sweetest of gifts. The cake on Santa’s platter is reminiscent of the cake Terri’s mother would bake during the holidays. An ornament from the Season’s Treatings series inspires the Christmas tree cookie tower in Santa’s other hand. For this merry baker, there’s plenty of sugar and tradition to go around.

Description

Member Exclusive

Features Santa decked out in a festive red-and-white striped apron holding a Bundt cake in one hand and a frosted cookie tree (inspired by the 7th ornament in the Season's Treatings series) in the other.


This in-store KOC exclusive ornament was designed as a companion to the 2018 Santa’s Sweet Treat Cart ornament. It was issued in limited quantities and first available at the 2018 Keepsake Ornament Premiere event.

  • Artist: Terri Steiger
  • Released: 2018 (Ornament Premiere)
  • Retail Price: $17.99 USA/$23.99 CAN
  • Material(s): plastic
  • Dimensions: 2.86" w. x 4.6" h. x 2.23" d.
  • SKU: QXC5310
  • Produced in: Thailand
  • Production Date(s): February 2018

For Terri, growing up in Cleveland meant snowy winter days and delicious Christmas desserts. It’s one of the reasons her Sweet Santa Keepsake Ornament means a lot to her.

Having just baked a spread of sugary treats, Santa shows off the scrumptious Bundt cake and frosted cookie tree. These two childhood favorites were delicacies her mother used to bake during the holidays. To remember that special time, Terri says, “I really wanted Santa sugared up!” Decked out in a festive red-and-white striped apron, St. Nick is thrilled with his munchable masterpieces. He even stocked up on sweets for a late-night snack, with plenty of lollipops tucked away (and a few candy canes in his back pocket!) for later. Terri also wanted to accentuate Santa’s iconic “round belly,” which couldn’t be jollier. Just seeing his smile is truly a treat!

A delightful treatment of the North Pole nice-lister, Terri’s Sweet Santa acts as a companion Keepsake Ornament to the in-store artist signing event piece—Santa’s Sweet Treat Cart. “Every studio artist created a part of this sweets cart… so I wanted my Santa to coordinate with such a special ornament,” Terri merrily adds.

Endearing, merry and bright, Sweet Santa is an absolute joy—much like the ornament’s creator. Telling her version of what happens in Santa’s bakery, we get a glimpse of what a magical holiday means to Terri.

There’s nothing like those cherished moments we savor during the season, and how we love the tradition of keeping those memories close.

A Happy Christmas to all, and to all some good sweets!

Nesting Doll Surprise

Hallmark Artist Terri Steiger was intrigued by traditional matryoshka, the Russian nesting doll. She combined the structure of a time-honored toy with a cheerful and fresh interpretation to capture the excitement of a holiday surprise. The characters inside present a small token of the season. Hang them individually or together!

Three different nesting doll designs await. A few lucky collectors (approx. 25%) will receive a surprise fourth item (a little polar bear ornament) tucked inside!

Description

Member Exclusive

Set of three (or four) ornaments.

Features a set of Russian nesting dolls interpreted with a holiday theme. Hang them individually or together!

  • Artist: Terri Steiger
  • Released: 2018 (April 16)
  • Retail Price: $19.99 USA (regularly $15.99 USA)
  • Material(s): plastic
  • Dimensions: 2.34" w. x 3.8" h. x 2.32" d. (largest doll)
  • SKU: QXC5312
  • Produced in: Sri Lanka
  • Production Date(s): 

Inspired by the traditional Russian matryoshka dolls, Keepsake Artist Terri Steiger dreamed up her own cheerful holiday interpretation. Her jolly Nesting Doll Surprise set includes Santa, a snowman, and a penguin. Also, for a number of lucky collectors, a sweet bear is included in some of the boxes, as a limited offering.

Nurturing a longtime appreciation for nesting dolls, Terri jumped at the opportunity to travel to Russia several years ago. During her visit, she says, “I fell in love with the gorgeous artwork. It was fascinating.” Wanting to bring back some of that intricate beauty, Terri bought a book on matryoshka dolls as a fond reminder of her trip. From professional athletes to political figures, she discovered a huge range of icons celebrated through the nesting doll medium.

The Nesting Doll Surprise Keepsake Ornament set is a merry nod to Terri’s love for things with an unexpected twist. Fun to hang on the tree together or as separate characters, Terri loves the charm of this ornament set’s interactive element. Rotate the nesting dolls and you’ll find a new holiday pal smiling back at you. She says, “I just love the hidden surprise.” Terri also enjoys adding storytelling to her work, and she thinks the Nesting Doll Surprise set is a good example of the stories we gravitate to at Christmastime. She adds, “Ornaments are beautiful to look at, but I think they can even be more than that.”

NOTE: A few lucky collectors (approx. 25%) will receive a surprise fourth item (a little polar bear ornament) tucked inside!

Songs of the Season

9900QXC5300-Song-of-the-Season
9900QXC5300-Song-of-the-Season-2

Inspired by classic Christmas carols and crafted by some of your favorite Keepsake Artists, this collection is as memorable as the songs it embodies. All ornaments convey the essence of timeless holiday melodies and feature a shadow box environment with lyrics. Yet each is as distinctive as the style of the artist who created it. A set you’ll treasure forever, it is truly music to your eyes.

Joy to the World

Building snowmen has been a long-standing
tradition at Tammy Haddix’s household.
So it’s no surprise that you’ll find one of
her charming snowmen in this delightful
“Joy to the World” ornament. Joined
by his woodland owl pal, the snowbuddy
sparkles and glitters, depicting the pure
joy of heaven and nature singing.
By Tammy Haddix

 

Jingle Bells

When Terri Steiger was a kid, she used to
cut up the previous year’s Christmas
cards and make ornaments out of them.
Her “Jingle Bells” ornament certainly has
that handmade feel to it. Designed with tinsel,
a bow, and actual bells, this ornament takes
you right into a dashing-through-the-snow
scene and is sure to make spirits bright.
By Terri Steiger

 

Angels We Have Heard on High

Creator of the Heirloom Angel series,
Ruth Donikowski was happy to design this
sweetly singing angel, inspired by vintage
Christmas decorations. With its arched top,
transparent sides that look like stained glass,
and the words “Gloria in Excelsis Deo,”
the ornament evokes the feeling of and
the music of Christmas morning service.
By Ruth Donikowski

 

Twelve Days of Christmas

It’s as if one of Santa’s elves created this
“Twelve Days of Christmas” ornament
Actually, Ken Crow, a toymaker in his own
right, sculpted the partridge in a pear tree
using a carved wood look to give it that
workshop feel. With a brilliantly painted
bird, colorful gems, and golden pears, this
ornament delights every time you look at it.
By Ken Crow

 

O Christmas Tree

Edythe Kegrize grew up playing the piano,
and one of her favorite holiday songs to play
was “O Christmas Tree.” Now she brings the
carol to life in a shimmering package inspired
by vintage enamel jewelry, the kind her great
grandmother used to wear. The bows, the
crystals, and the lustrous finish truly capture
the festiveness of the season and the song.
By Edythe Kegrize

 

Jolly Old St. Nicholas

“Christmas is a nostalgic time,” says Nello Williams
who created the “Jolly Old St. Nicholas”
ornament based on a song reminiscent of his
grade school days. With Santa inspired
by retro advertising print graphics,
a 1940s-styled fireplace, and a touch of
art deco, this authentic ornament indeed
harkens back to Christmases and carols past.
By Nello Williams

Songs of the Season


Presented in a beautiful gift box, this Songs of the Season set is a medley of six ornaments created by six different Keepsake artists. Designed exclusively for Keepsake Ornament Club members, each shadow-box piece features sheet music from a classic Christmas carol.

Researching homes of the ’30s, ’40s and ’50s, Nello Williams wanted his “Jolly Old St. Nicholas” ornament to have his signature retro look.

“Plus, Santa Claus is my favorite character of the season,” he says.

Edythe Kegrize made “O Christmas Tree” really shine, decorating it with crystals inspired by her grandmother’s jewelry. She also remembers playing this carol on the piano as a child.

” I looked forward to the holidays so I could pull out the Christmas songbooks,” Edythe says.

Ruth Donikowski’s “Angels We Have Heard On High” ornament displays a sweet angel announcing the season. Framed with a stained glass look, Ruth ‘s ornament was inspired by vintage Christmas decorations.

When Terri Steiger was creating her “Jingle Bells” scene, she thought of the classic holiday cards her parents would receive-it has tinsel and real jingle bells. Oh, what fun!

Tammy Haddix designed the “Joy to the World” ornament featuring a snow buddy from her popular series. With garland framing the scene and a bow to wrap it all up, she says “he’s a happy, little, sparkling snowman.”

For ” Twelve Days of Christmas,” Ken Crow designed a perched partridge to give his ornament a carved-wood feel. He enjoyed being one of the six artists a-sculpting for this set and says “it was fun being part of the team.”
