“Hallmark Keepsake Ornaments serve as a special tradition to bring people together and celebrate favorite memories or milestones, but they’re also always evolving,” said Gregor Benedetti, Hallmark Keepsake Artist. “This year, we’re excited to kick off a first-in-series 12 Days of Christmas ornament beginning with an intricate Partridge in A Pear Tree papercraft ornament. Next year, the series continues with – you guessed it – two turtle doves.”
In addition to first-in-series ornaments, Hallmark is adding to the excitement of Keepsake Ornament Premiere with a new ShowToppers collection. ShowToppers elevate an ordinary tabletop tree with intricate designs synchronized to sound and light.

2024 Artist Insights: Haunted Mansion
If you’ve ever visited the Haunted Mansion Attraction at Walt Disney World Resort, this is the ornament collection for you. With interactive light, music and dialogue, the tree topper and ornaments bring the Haunted Mansion to life for any foolish mortal who dares take the trip.
Iman Zadrozny
Keepsake Artist Iman Zadrozny has played a major role in creating this collection, having done initial concepts for most of the ornaments. This year, she focused on creating the Ghost Bride, Constance Hatchaway.
Iman had her own childhood memories to inspire her. She explains, “When I was a kid, I loved going on the Haunted Mansion ride! I still live in Florida but don’t get to Disney nearly as often as I’d like since I’m up in the northern part of the state. But whenever I’m able to go, I can’t wait to revisit it, that ride is such a classic.”
Constance Hatchaway
Disney The Haunted Mansion Collection
“When it came to creating the Constance Hatchaway ornament, there were some unique challenges we had to plan for, and it was definitely a group effort. For light and sound elements, I turned to engineer Samantha Heryford. She’s a dream to work with and she always has my back to make sure everything functions exactly as it should. And we had an amazing fabric artist we worked with to oversee the draping. For my part, I just made sure there was enough room to attach the fabric where it needed to go so we could be accurate to the character.”
“Being accurate to the character was a priority for Iman, so she did a lot of research. “There were so many creepy reference images that I stared at throughout this project! But there was nothing I couldn’t handle. Maybe it helps that I listen to mystery and crime podcasts while I work anyway!”
Whether you’ve visited the Haunted Mansion ride already or plan to in the future, there’s one thing Iman hopes you come away with. “It’s about nostalgia. There are so many people who told me that the coffin ornament (The Coffin in the Conservatory) I worked on reminded them of being on the ride as a kid. It’s the same feeling I have about these ornaments, and I’m really glad people are reliving those great memories. I hope Constance Hatchaway and the other new ornaments in the collection just add to your fun!”
You can pick up your Constance Hatchaway ornament at Ornament Premiere!
