Nobody knows the store like the elves who stock it. Elf Picks is our staff-favorites shelf: the pieces our own team points friends and family toward when asked what is actually worth getting this year.

Chosen, Not Sponsored
The current picks lean heavily into personalized family ornaments: snowman families on stockings, in trucks, and on sleds, plus bear families gathered around the tree, each ready to carry every name in your household. Personalized family pieces top the elves’ list for a simple reason: they are the ornaments that get unwrapped, named aloud, and pointed at every single year afterward.

Why It Works
A staff pick is a shortcut through choice overload. When the collection runs thousands of pieces deep, it helps to know which ten the people who see everything would take home themselves. The picks rotate as new favorites emerge, so the page stays honest and current instead of calcifying into a greatest-hits page. If an item is here, someone on staff genuinely loves it and can tell you exactly why at the register, usually with a story attached.
