The second Elf to appear this year is from Cracker Barrel. A cute little guy sitting in a typical kid style, hands around his knees just waiting for the next adventure.

CHRISTMAS JAR LISTS 2023
CHRISTMAS 2023
I’ve been compiling a list of new jars out for 2023. Yikes, it’s a long way to go especially when I am also fighting with a difficult website in the midst of a rebuild. Please bear with me as I try and figure this out.
- POTTERY BARN
A few jars with typical Christmas designs, but the one that will catch your attention is the Griswold house!
Christmas Jars - WORLD MARKET
A little more affordable jars can be found on the World Market website. Now if anyone can figure out how to make the cute Christmas Cuckoo Clock jar into a real clock, let me know.
Christmas Cuckoo Clock & More - DISNEY CHRISTMAS
It’s another license that is not producing like in the past, but a few new Christmas jars are floating around from Disney. Of course it’s not been easy finding them all and I know there are more to be discovered–somewhere.
Disney 2023 - NATIONAL LAMPOON
There is not one, but two Griswold houses this Christmas season. Department 56 has a set of three different jars under the National Lampoon License. My favorite is Cousin Eddie’s RV car jar. The house is about half the price of the one from Pottery Barn, but cannot compare quality since I haven’t seen in real life. If you have, please share your thoughts.
Dept 56 Lampoon - Neiman Marcus
A pink Nutcracker and an exclusive MacKenzie-Childs Candy cottage are the exclusives for Neimans this year. I’m pretty sure the cottage will be making it’s way to our shelves this year.
Neiman Marcus Picks - Cracker Barrel
A fun little child-like elf clasping his knees is this year’s jar at the store and online.
Cracker Barrel - At Home
The first Christmas jar this year that was a must-have for me is the Elf on a Shelf cookie jar. I love the face, I love the size and I love the quality.

Disney Christmas 2023
Over the years dozens of Disney themed cookie jars have been added to our shelves, but so far this year has been a little sparse. I’m pretty sure there will be more to be added to the list as the holidays get closer.
The Christmas Pooh Santa looks familiar, I’m pretty sure it’s been around before, but in case you’ve missed it check it out on Amazon. It’s produced by Zrike Brands, producers of numerous licenses oover the years. The jar is tall at over 13″ and sells for $49.95.
I stumbled upon the Santa Stitch at TJMaxx stores. Fun looking jar with a price of around $39. Check out your TJ Maxx and Ross Department stores for the occasional jar, it’s one of the those places that if you see it, get it! It won’t be there the next time.
The only jar on this list that is actually at online Disney store is the Snowman Mickey. The over 11″ Snowman sells for $64.95, but if you use Rakuten to get a healthy cash back rebate it’s like getting it on sale.
Note: I’ve literally been using Rakuten since 2012 and have received back over $2000. in rebates, it’s super easy and I’ve never heard any complaints about it. Rebate amounts change all the time, but right now Disney Shop is at 8%, Macy’s at 8% and Neiman Marcus is 10%.

This was the first jar (this season!) that I felt was a must-buy. I was shopping for Halloween when I saw this cute little guy sitting on a shelf…. duh. I couldn’t decide which one I wanted, but went with the blue-eyed elf as it reminds me of my son when he was a little guy.
Absolutely love this one and almost want to go get another…. just because.
The jars are about 10.5″ high and priced at $29.99.
There are several other Christmas jars for sale at At Home, including a Ty Pennington Blue Gnome, a Gingerbread House, Santa, and Christmas Trees.
