2025 Year in Review — Handcrafted Bookshelf Ornament
Because 2025 was a lot — and somehow it deserves a place in your home.
This one-of-a-kind handcrafted ornament captures the moments, the headlines, the heartbreaks, and the highlights of 2025 in the most charming way possible — a miniature bookshelf, laser-cut from layered basswood, hand-stained, and finished with hand-painted details that make every piece feel alive.
Hang it on your tree this year and every year after, and watch it become the ornament everyone stops to read. It's a conversation starter, a time capsule, and a little piece of history all in one.
What's on the shelves?
Every book spine tells a story from 2025. Here's what's in the collection:
Top Shelf: Katy Perry in Space · Diddy Convicted · New Pope Leo · Lunar Eclipse · Coldplay Jumbotron · Drone Sightings
Second Shelf: Six-Seven (6-7) · No King in America · Ice Raids · RIP Ozzy
Third Shelf: TEX Flood · Gulf of America · AI Explosion · Travis and Taylor Engaged · RIP Charlie Kirk · California Wildfires · Ozempic
Bottom Shelf: NPR Shutdown · Trade Tariffs · RIP Hulk Hogan · Trump Inaugurated
Go ahead and read that list again. Yep — that was all one year. 😅
Four editions to choose from:
🎄 Classic Edition — $20 The full 2025 experience exactly as shown, with all the headlines — political and otherwise. If 2025 happened, it's on this shelf.
🎄 Classic Edition (No Political Content) — $20 Same great ornament, same price — with a few swaps for those who prefer to keep politics off the tree. The politically charged titles are replaced with:
No King in America becomes First Female Ump
Ice Raids becomes CA Wildfires (This refers to Canadian Wildfires)
Trump Inaugurated becomes Shoe Removal Rule
Same amount of 2025 energy, slightly lower blood pressure. 😄
✏️ Personalized Edition — $25 Want to swap out 1–2 items for something more personal? A family milestone, a pet's name, a moment that defined your 2025? This edition lets you make it yours without losing the spirit of the original. Just let us know at checkout what you'd like changed and what you'd like to replace it with.
⭐ Custom Edition — $30 For those who want to go deeper. Choose 3–4 changes and turn this into a truly personal keepsake — a record of your year, not just the world's. Perfect for commemorating a graduation, a new baby, a move, a marriage, or anything else that made 2025 unforgettable for you. Details at checkout.
🎁 Perfect as a Gift All editions make wonderful gifts for the person who has everything — or the person who just survived 2025 and deserves a little recognition for it. 😄

Shipping
Standard shipping rates are calculated automatically by the platform, and unfortunately those options are outside of my control. However, I offer an "Adjusted Shipping" option at checkout for customers who feel their order could ship for less.
Here's how it works: select "Adjusted Shipping" at checkout, and once your order is placed, I'll calculate the actual shipping cost and bill you separately for the difference. Please note that if the actual rate turns out to be higher than the standard option, that adjusted amount will apply — so it's worth keeping in mind. That said, I always strive to find the most affordable shipping option available.
Local pickup is available for customers in the Watkins Glen/Montour Falls area. We can arrange to meet at a convenient public location. Travel outside of that area is available for a small additional fee.
Payments
Payment through the site via PayPal is always welcome, but I also offer several convenient alternatives: Venmo, CashApp and Chime. To receive direct payment links, simply text the word Payment to 607-602-1191 and they'll be sent to you automatically.
Please note that checks are not accepted, and cash payments are discouraged. For any questions, feel free to reach out at sales@rrhcreations.com.
