Collectible Christmas Tree Ornaments

Although Christmas trees have been around for centuries, "store-bought" Christmas ornaments have only been around since the mid-1800s, when glassblowers in Germany began making colored glass balls to hang on Christmas trees. Since then, of course, hundreds of thousands of different kinds of ornaments have been manufactured. Most families (like ours) have simply hung all of their favorite ornaments on their Christmas tree at the same time, but some folks have taken more pains to only use the best and most appropriate ornaments on their trees. Today, as many "baby boomers" downsize their homes, many are also downsizing their Christmas decorations and are replacing quantity with quality. That said, a few well-chosen ornaments on a smaller tree may be the best choice for anyone without a great deal of room or time.

This page lists a number of collectible ornaments that will brighten any room.

Note: For this page, we have chosen to use illustrations and product descriptions that are provided by the manufacturer rather than writing a separate review of each ornament offering. The main reason for this choice has to do with the fact that these are selling so fast that we don't always have time to write a review before the product has gone out of stock. In fact, four collections we listed in July, 2008, were sold out by November!

The good news is that Once you start a collection, you are guaranteed to receive the entire collection (although you can discontinue any time if you wish).

We have just listed a few more charming ornament collections that you may be interested in, and we will try to keep our eye out for more interesting pieces and collections in the coming weeks. In the meantime, any of the "buy" buttons will take you to the Collectibles Today site, where you can search for specific items.

If you have specific questions about an ornament, please contact us, or call the Collectibles Today Customer Service line at: 1-877-268-6638.
