Christmas Ornament Trivia

Many of our Christmas ornaments and decorations have been used in unique situations or purchased by interesting people and businesses. It's fun to provide products to these folks and we thought we'd share the fun with you!

Four Christmases

Every Christmas happily unmarried Brad and Kate escape divorced parents and exasperating relatives by getting on a plane. This year the airport shuts down and the couple is forced to celebrate four family Christmases in one hectic, hilarious day. Can Brad and Kate's relationship survive Four Christmases? Starring Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon.

At the end of the movie, a closeup of a Christmas tree is shown during the credits and we noticed several Christmas ornaments that we have in stock were used on the tree! We did not provide these particular ornaments but two were the Bass Drum and Black Upright Piano from Old World Christmas and the Lucky Red Suitcase from Inge-Glas. See if you can spot them when you watch the movie!

American Girl Company

American Girl:  Since the first catalogue debuted in 1986, American Girl has provided inspiring products for each stage of a young girl's development—from her preschool days of baby dolls and fantasy play through her tween years of self-expression and individuality.

Through an array of premium-quality books, dolls, clothes, toys, and accessories, American Girl has earned the loyalty of millions of girls and the praise and trust of parents and educators.

We supplied lots of pink Ice Cream Cones for a window display!

Disney World Orlando - Carmen Miranda

Ken Brown created a display of Carmen Mirando and her famous huge head pieces made of fruits. Several of our glass Banana Christmas ornaments were used in this creation for Disney World Orlando.

People Magazine 2009 Holiday Extra Issue

People Magazine did a feature article "An Ornament from Every State!" in their 2009 Holiday Extra Issue. We provided the ornament to represent our home state of Mississippi which was an Old World Christmas Cruise Ship.

The ornament can be seen on page 70 with a mention of pencechristmastreefarm.com (our initial website, now Trendy Tree). It was interesting to note that the ornaments representing several other states were also found in our stock! The Ruby Slipper for Kansas and Rainbow Trout for Arkansas. I think we could supplied an ornament to represent each and every state!
