Karen Didion Collectibles

Artisan Hand-Drawn Design & Whimsical Holiday Storytelling

What began over 25 years ago in a home studio has grown into one of the most beloved collectible figure traditions in the holiday world. Every piece in the Karen Didion Originals collection is personally created and designed by self-taught artist Karen Didion, bringing expressiveness, humor, and heart to every seasonal character.

Celebrated for their expressive hand-painted faces, glass inset eyes, real mohair beards, and elaborate layered fabrics, these figurines tell a story in every detail. Whether featuring traditional red-velvet Santas, cozy wine and kitchen themes, or magical seasonal characters, each collectible comes complete with a sewn-in collector’s tag—making them treasured heirlooms to display on mantels, sideboards, and holiday tables.
