MacKenzie-Childs holiday decor is built to be kept, not replaced every year. Pieces are hand-painted or hand-finished in the same patterns as the rest of the collection, so a Courtly Check stocking or ornament looks at home next to the Courtly Check already in your kitchen.

Most people start with the tree and the mantel. The Courtly Check Stocking and Timeless Tartan Tree Skirt set the look, and the Courtly Check Large Tabletop Ornament and Courtly Holly Tabletop Tree carry it onto a table or sideboard. Nutcrackers are a collection of their own here: the Timeless Tartan Wood Nutcracker and Traditional Christmas Wood Nutcracker are the classics. Glass ornaments like the Mocha Check Tea Kettle make easy gifts.

Holiday pieces are made in limited runs and sell through before December. For earlier in the season, see fall and Halloween decor.
