February 2021

Dear KOC Member,

We hope your new year is getting off to a great start and your holidays were filled with all the memories and traditions you love most. While the 2020 season required us all to adapt some of those traditions, we know our club members are the kind of people who find meaningful ways to celebrate and connect no matter what…and maybe even create a favorite new tradition or two along the way.

We’re looking forward to an exciting year with you, and we hope you’ll enjoy this first issue of For Keeps, where we’ll give you a closer look at your KOC-exclusive ornaments, including some really special inspiration behind a couple of those designs. We’re also taking a look at how we get our license ornaments approved and what it takes to get them from initial design to final approval. Our Keepsake Studio Creative Director, Jim Tronoski, tells you what it’s like leading our tight-knit group of artists, and there’s a special local club we’re featuring as well.

Of course it’s Christmas all year long in the Keepsake Ornament Club, so we’re including a $5 coupon for you here, too, to thank you for being part of our KOC family.

Oh–and just a reminder–don’t forget to visit your member-only Facebook page at Facebook.com/groups/KOCMembers, where you’ll find even more updates and behind-the-scenes info. Hope to see you there soon!

Sincerely,

THE KEEPSAKE ORNAMENT CLUB
