Watch Them All! 50th Anniversary Historical Video Series

2023 marks 50 years of Keepsake Ornaments…can you believe it? We are so excited to be celebrating ALL year with ALL of you! Be sure to check out our historical video series (new ones are being added each month!) where you’ll be hearing from folks inside the Keepsake Village as they share their memories and reflections. Follow this special video series on our Hallmark YouTube Channel or at the Ideas and Inspiration section of hallmark.com.

Start Dreaming

To celebrate the Dream Book, we’ll dive into the rich history of how Keepsake Ornaments took a simple catalog and created something truly magical. Something that has become a tradition in its own right. Ready to start dreaming?

Fueling Fandom!

Take a look back at our earliest fan favorites. Keepsake Ornaments began partnering with licensors in the early 1990s, and partnerships have grown at warp speed ever since, with amazing collaborations that result in ornaments that get every detail just right.

Small Wonders!

Our historical 50th Anniversary video series rolls on, this time featuring some incredibly detailed ornaments that come in tiny little packages. Learn about the creation and evolution of our beloved miniatures and hear from our artists how no detail is too small when it comes to creating Keepsake magic.

First in Series!

Take a look back at the evolution of series ornaments, an innovation that launched in 1980. Come along as our artists talk about creating stories over time that bring happy memories to the tree every single year.

Peanut Pals!

Good grief, we can’t celebrate our 50th anniversary without also celebrating our longstanding partnership with Peanuts®. Since 1977, our artists have been creating ornaments featuring Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and the gang, and it’s always a labor of love.

Thank you for all you do!

Sincerely,

The Keepsake Village
