On a cold winter’s night it is nice to cozy up to the fire with a soft blanket and your dog and a special someone. With all of the cold weather we have been having here at The Ornament Factory a cozy evening by the fire sounds nice. We are going to be having some even colder temperatures in the next few days. Stay warm friends!

Best Night of the Week….

There is nothing better than sitting down with the one you love and enjoying your favorite television show. Mickey and Minnie are cozy and are watching their favorite show, ‘The Wonderful World of Disney.”

Snowy Mountain Lodge….

Press the button on the side of the ornament and skiers begin to descend the slope, skaters move around the pond, the fireplace inside the lodge flickers, and the pond glows a beautiful icy blue. This 2007 Hallmark Keepsake Ornament also plays “Let it Snow.”

I hope you all stay warm and hopefully can find sometime to relax with your loved ones. The other elves and I are have some fun planned for this week with the cold weather. We are going to have a chili cook off. Elliot the Head Elf is going to judge it. I cannot wait to taste what everyone comes up with. Another activity we have planned is to have a movie night with hot chocolate and popcorn. Jack the Elf is going to make a few different flavors of popcorn. He is on a cooking/baking kick lately. He has made some yummy treats.

We would love to hear from you! Please share with is some your favorite things to do when it is cold outside.

Stay warm friends!

Winter time always bring up the debate of how to decorate. Do you leave up your Christmas decorations then go straight to Valentine’s Day? Do you have winter decorations like snowmen up after Christmas before Valentine’s Day? For those of you who like to have winter decorations, here are some Hallmark Keepsake Ornament suggestions for you. You could have a winter themed tree, a wreath, or just have the ornaments around your home.

Winter Garden Ready for Sledding….

When there is snow on the ground, the first thing I think of is sledding with all of the other elves. Thankfully we have many good places to go to around The Ornament Factory. After we are done we always enjoy a nice warm mug of hot chocolate.

Snowmen of Winter GardenCardinal Carols, Snowmen of Winter Garden….

A snowman wakes up to a bright red cardinal perched on his bird house. There are many ways to decorate a snowman you make. This snowman would look great on a tree with all his snowman Hallmark Ornament friends.

Winter White Snowman….

Winter White Snowman, a Hallmark Keepsake Ornament, is great with other animals. The bird has its nest sitting comfortably on the snowman’s head while he dangles a nice carrot for the bunny.

Snow Buddies #1….

First in the Snow Buddies Hallmark Ornament Series. This Hallmark Keepsake series is dedicated to smiling snowmen who have fun playing outdoors. The snowman has a colorful hat and scarf and is playfully playing with the bunny.

Winter can be such a fun time. There are so many cute snowmen and winter Hallmark Ornaments that you can use to decorate with. What is your favorite Hallmark Keepsake Ornament to use for decorating for winter?

The elves have been busy at The Ornament Factory but also making sure we get time to go outside and enjoy the winter weather. The snowball fight the other day was so much fun! Little Daniel the Elf has a strong arm on him for being so little. Brandon the Elf was so fast running to hide. He was hard to get with the snowball. It is so nice to have all the elves around to play with and enjoy winter with.

That’s all for now from The Ornament Factory! Hope you have a wonderful Monday!

In the last blog Daniel the Elf was talking about turning your Christmas tree into a Valentine’s Day tree. You can also do that with wreathes. Putting Hallmark Keepsake Ornaments on a wreath and dress it up and allow you to display some of your favorite love and heart ornaments. The best part is just like when you decorate a tree or wreath for Christmas you get to make it unique to you. These would also make a special gift that is thoughtful and appreciated. Daniel the Elf gave a few suggestions in his last blog so I thought I would give you a couple more suggestions of Hallmark ornaments that we have in stock here at The Ornament Factory.

Mom….

This 2008 Hallmark Keepsake Ornament proves that Mom is simply the sweetest. Mom is made of various candies, candy canes, and chocolate dipped strawberries. She is holding a red heart with the word “Mom” on it.

Two to a Chair, Mickey and Minnie….

Who doesn’t like sharing a chair with your favorite someone? Mickey and Minnie are sharing a big green comfortable chair and when the heart below the chair is pulled, Mickey and Minnie get a little more intimate. Two to a Chair was released in 2013 and has a cute red heart hanging from the bottom.

Friends of the Heart….

You can always make a Valentine’s Day tree. There are many Hallmark Keepsake Ornaments here at The Ornament Factory that you can order that are Valentine”s Day, hearts, or love. Here are a few that I found. You can look and see what else we have at http://www.hallmarkornaments.com

Linus’s Big Heart….

Let Linus and his over sized heart add a little love to your tree. Love is in the air with the 7th in our monthly series of Peanuts® ornaments. On the Hallmark Ornament it says Be Mine.

Love Shack….

Whenever I hear love shack I right away think of the popular B-52’s song. Press the butt on on the ornament to hear music from “Love Shack” performed by The B-52’s. This love shack will be a great addition to your Valentine’s Day tree!

Remembered With Love….

This beautiful white heart would make a special Valentine’s Day gift for that special someone. On this porcelain Hallmark ornament it says, Remembered with love.

Time for Love….

Time for Love is made out of metal. On the Hallmark ornament it says, Every minute…I love you. Valentine’s Day is the time for love. It is always time to decorate with Hallmark Ornaments.

Soda Shoppe Sweethearts….

Mickey and Minnie are holding hands at the Malt Shoppe having a huge ice cream sundae. This Hallmark Keepsake Ornament malt shoppe is designed in the 1950’s with a black and white tiled floor with round stools and a round table.

For your Valentine’s Day tree you can add red lights or just leave white lights on it. For a tree skirts a red or pink blanket would look nice or if you are crafty you can make one. At the top of the tree if you can find a large red heart or cute stuffed toy. The possibilities are endless. Happy decorating!

We are still busy here at The Ornament Factory. The last sale we had was very successful! I love when the Hallmark Keepsake Ornaments find good homes where they will be loved. The other elves and I have been working on what ornaments we will put on the Valentine’s Day tree here at work. We have up our winter themed tree right now. I love the blanket we used for the tree skirt.

Back to work for me! I am excited that it is Friday and the weekend is here.

Happy New Year to you all from everyone at The Ornament Factory! We wish you all a great year ahead. Did you make a new years resolution? The other elves and I had fun sharing our new years resolutions with each other on New Years Day while we ate the pork tenderloin, that Jack the elf made, and talked about what we are hoping this new year will bring.

Here are two of the Hallmark Keepsake Ornaments that would make a  great addition to your tree or a wreath for the holidays.

Mickey Mouse is ringing in the New Year all dressed up! This Hallmark Keepsake Ornament was released in 2014. Mickey is dressed in a tux with a light purple bow tie and a red party horn. He is all set to party and bring in the new year!
