Best Way to Store and Preserve Your Keepsake Ornaments

It is finally time to pull out all our many Keepsake Ornaments to decorate for the holidays. We keep our favorites out all year, and we know you do too! But, so many stay packed away for many months of the year. We asked our Hallmark Historian the best way to store and preserve our Keepsake Ornaments, and she provided us with the attached document, packed full of her advice in keeping your favorite ornaments looking brand new, year after year. Please share this with your local club members, so we can all continue to enjoy our collections for years to come!

Holiday Wishes and 2020 Sneak Peek

What an exciting season and year we have upon us! With a new decade drawing closer, we remind you to cherish and enjoy the last few weeks of 2019. The holidays can be a busy time, but a special one to celebrate with those you love. Slow down, spend time together, and remember the traditions and memories you have started and passed on to those you hold dear. Keepsake Ornaments bring us together, and in this season of joy, we want to thank you for choosing to include Keepsake Ornaments in your traditions year after year. Thank you for making memories through Keepsake Ornaments and thank you for enjoying them as much as we do here in the Keepsake Village. Everything we do is with you in mind, and we truly believe 2020 is going to be the start of the best new decade of Keepsakes so far. So, who’s ready for one more sneak peek?
