Susan, thank you for letting us know, we are very sad to hear of his passing. He was truly a master artist who sculpted beautiful, timeless pieces. Digital Dreambook will post a memorial later this week.
Here are the results of the 2022 Halloween poll that ended November 26, 2022 asking which Halloween Keepsake Ornaments you bought. Anita Marra Roger’s “Happy Halloween!” achieved the top spot!
It sounds like you have a great collection of Employee Ornaments already, what kind of other ornaments are you interested in?
I collect almost everything, but my favorites are the Puppy Love series, Frosty Friends, Beauty of the Birds and nearly anything Magic. Anita Marra Rogers and Ken Crow are two of my most favorite artists.
Here are the results of the 2022 KOC Repaints poll that ended on September 20, 2022. Season’s Treatings edged out North Pole Tree Trimmer to be the winner!
Jan, I’m sorry to hear about your bundle. I would encourage you to call Hallmark, and in particular, let them know you got the pins. I have heard of others who have had varying degrees of success arguing that it is not an ornament as was promised. Good luck.
Here are the results of the 2022 KOC Ornament Premiere ornaments poll that ended on August 5, 2022. Christmas Window barely edged out the Indian Ring-Necked Parakeet!
Hallmark recently posted that the Dream Book would be online on April 14th, so it will probably be available then.
There is also a “Wish List Short Form” that you can manually write in what you want. That would help ensure you are high on the list for ornaments that have already been Sneak Peeked or series that you know are continuing this year. Click here to download a short form PDF.
Hope that helps and good luck getting everything you want!
Sorry to hear about your corporate stores. There have been a number of corporate locations that have transitioned into independent stores, it’s happened here in my area too. The Paper Store is an independent Hallmark franchise chain of 80 Hallmark stores, so hopefully your shopping won’t change too much with the new owners! Looking forward to hear your thoughts once it reopens!
