Each year, we sell the official White House ornament for that year in the Surratt House gift shop. They are lovely. This year's is battery operated and lights up. My daughter collects them and has a special tree just for these ornaments. I also have a friend who uses them to decorate inside wreaths.

I also noticed in one of Thomas's photos at the Mudd House that they had a showcase filled with someone's collection as part of their display.

I just started collecting the White House ornaments and have asked for the Lincoln ornament as a stocking stuffer!
