For the plethora of Hallmark Keepsake ornament collectors out there, it’s your time of year! The 2024 Hallmark Keepsake Ornaments have arrived! This year’s collection is available for viewing on the Hallmark website or by downloading the 2024 Dream book (highly recommended!). The 2024 collection features ornaments in the following categories:
- Christmas Wonder
- Artistry
- Meaningful Moments
- Fun Gifts, Perfect Fits
- Kids & Kids at Heart
- Small Wonders
- Fan Favorites
I have reviewed the entire collection and already have some favorites amongst the huge number of additions to the Hallmark Keepsake Ornament collection with an important caveat. Every collector or ornament enthusiast has their own personal favorires when seeking the next Hallmark Keepsake for their collection (I like this year’s 1960s Batman and Robin TV show ornament!). The good news is that Hallmark does a fantastic job covering a wide range of fan interests so everyone should be able to find a favorite amongst the crowd.
For those looking for more traditional vintage-style ornaments, they have the “Classic Christmas Style” ornament line within their Christmas Wonder collection. There you’ll find Santa Claus in glass as well as a neat ornament emulating three Santa ornaments from the 1950s called the “Nifty Fifties,” and so many more.
This year’s Christmas movie and TV holiday specials collection feature ornaments representing Christmas Vacation, the Grinch, Elf, Frosty the Snowman, Year Without a Santa Claus, Polar Express and, of course, A Christmas Story (Fragile!).
I like the “Meaningful Moments” theme, whose ornaments allow you to capture and represent all the important milestones in your life on your tree, like your first Christmas together with that special someone in your lie, photo holders for the special pets in your life as well as family photo holders and even one that will hold a tiny sonogram.
The 2024 sports figures feature a wide range of athletes from Travis Kelce to Sidney Crosby but this is one area where Hallmark fell short. There are no women athletes among the collection. Wouldn’t this have been a great year to feature Iowa’s Caitlin Clark, who’s captured the attention of the basketball world? Or how about some of our upcoming Olympic women athletes participating in the Summer games in Paris or tennis players Iga Swiatek and Coco Gauff? Huge miss.
Snoopy, Charlie Brown and the Peanuts gang, Sesame Street, Marvel and DC, and Disney get their usual share of attention this year with standbys like Lionel, John Deere, airplanes and cars, and the still trendy Barbie, Harry Potter, Star Wars, Star Trek, and even a funny nod to the Golden Girls TV show.
In truth, there are way too many ornaments to describe here but that’s what the downloadable Dream Book and expansive website are for; check them all out today! With more than 500 ornaments to choose from, including regular-sized ornaments and minis, many of which are online only and are from year’s past, you can’t go wrong.
