Top Picks for 2025

Hmmm, decisions are hard!

If Keepsake artists could choose only one ornament as their number one pick this year, what would it be-and why? After checking in with a few of them, we learned it’s definitely a tough question. But these artists were up to the challenge.

Allie Robillard
Hallmark Keepsake Artist

Dasher
Eight Tiny Reindeer
1st in the series.

“My top pick for 2025 is going to be Dasher, the first ornament in my new series, Eight Tiny Reindeer. It ended up being a very collaborative project to plan this series, and I’m so excited to share what our studio created.”

– Allie Robillard

Christmas Cooker

“I am really looking forward to picking up the Christmas Cooker ornament by Matt Johnson. I love the little snowman face! All the detail he packed into this miniature ornament is amazing.”

– Emma Leturgez-Smith

Keepsake Village

“The ornament I’m most excited about is the 2025 Keepsake Village magic ornament. This was a collaborative piece that I did with Emma LeturgezSmith. With light, sound and motion, this ornament required a lot of teamwork with our engineer, editor and art director. It was a labor of love, and I hope our club members love it, too!”

– Sharon Visker

“Let the Wookie™ Win”
Star Wars: A New Hope

“I can’t wait for the magic of “Let the Wookiee™ Win” from Star Wars: A New Hope™. When you press the button, the ornament comes to life with a hologram effect in the Dejarik (holochess) scene that looks awesome! The combined magic of video, light and dialogue from the film will be so cool for fans to experience.”

Artist Insights: Dream Box ornaments

From sketch to sculpt
Our Keepsake artists reimagine Hallmark artwork for the 2025 collection of Dream Box ornaments.

Jake Angell
Hallmark Keepsake Artist

“Charles Young, my art director, found a piece of artwork that was done by Hallmark illustrator Charlie Hadley and instantly knew it would make a wonderful piece for our collectors in the Dream Box. I’ve known Charlie for quite a few years, and was so happy we got to bring his artwork to life as an ornament. I wanted to be sure to capture the spirit of the original piece that’s done in a wonderful graphic style, so I took extra time to translate the triangle pattern on the tree and get the coloring just right.”

Winter Garden Party

Festive Pup

“It just so happened that Charlie also had an illustration of a festive puppy. I thought it would be the perfect mini companion piece to help the snowman decorate the tree!”

– Jake Angell

Santa’s Favorite Treats

“The original design for Santa’s Favorite Treats was actually inspired by some wonderful artwork by Hallmark Artist Rick LaPierre. It was a fun challenge to capture the feel and whimsy of the original art, right down to a loose sketchiness of it. Originally, Santa was holding lots of packages, but we simplified it down to a cookie box. I thought it would be fun to (give a) nod to a few fan-favorite ornaments, so the cookies Santa holds are shaped like a train, a rocking horse and one of Joanne’s Snowtop Lodge snowmen.”

– Kristina Gaughran

Simone Mariano
Hallmark Keepsake Artist

“Sheyda Abvabi Best designed the original concept art for the beautiful,Decked Out Deer ornament. After I saw the artwork, I did quite a bit of research so I could get the sculpt just right. I compiled a lot of deer references, especially for the head. Then I drove into the sculpt, first loosely blocking in shapes, then adjusting proportions and finalizing details to capture the styling from Sheyda’s original design. It’s so fun watching 2D illustrations come to life As sculptures!”

Artist Insights: Hobbies & Interests

From our hearts to your tree
Hear about the hobbies that bring joy to our artists and inspire their ornaments.

Whether you collected stamps as a kid, or you’ve never stopped knitting. Whether you’re a painter, a poet, a bookworm or a baker. Whether you’re obsessed with vintage cars or love playing guitar, your favorite hobbies are an expression of who you are.

Here in the Keepsake Village, we believe being your one-of-a-kind self is something to celebrate, for both our fans and our team! That’s why our artists’ unique personalities, perspectives and passions are an essential part of the creative process—especially for our hobbies and interests ornaments.

“I don’t know if our Keepsake Ornament fans know this about me yet, but I have a ton of creative hobbies that I get up to after work. I love to read, crochet, take care of houseplants, cook, bake, collage, travel, draw and paint, of course, and my newest hobby is surfing,” says Keepsake Artist Iman Zadrozny. “Creating something meaningful for my fellow hobbyists is my favorite thing.”

Keepsake Artist Tim Bishop says he dabbled in dozens of hobbies while he was growing up: drawing, painting, modeling with clay, building tree houses or model cars and having outdoor adventures of all kind. Nowadays, he still loves building and creating (lucky us!), but he also gets to explore new hobbies when an ornament design calls for it.

“I really think hobbies are an extremely important part of life,” Tim says. “They bring us joy and fulfillment. They can challenge us, intrigue us and inspire us.” They also make some pretty darling ornaments, if we do say so ourselves!

We Needle Little Christmas

We Needle Little Christmas was actually a huge challenge for me. My team and I went back and forth as we experimented with what was possible, but the final ornament is as heartwarming and special as I imagined!

– Iman Zadrozny

Happy Haul-idays

For Happy Haulidays, I wanted to do a twist on a classic image, so I started sketching and eventually landed on this adorable gingerbread camper! I looked at so many pictures of piped icing so I could get the texture just right. It’s one of my favorites coming out this year.

– Iman Zadrozny

Bowl Full of Jolly

While creating Bowl Full of Jolly, I would think back to all the baking shows I’d watched for inspiration. I became a cookie decorator myself, getting the piping and flooding and sprinkles in the right places on the bowls. It was so much fun! I hope the playfulness of this piece makes you all want to bake lots of cookies this year..
