LEGO® has long been a favorite for holiday gift-giving, and this year’s selection of festive sets brings even more charm to the season. Whether you’re an advanced collector or a first-time buyer, there’s something magical about building a winter-themed LEGO® set to match the holiday spirit.

The Winter Village series is one of LEGO®’s most iconic seasonal collections, featuring snowy streets, cozy cabins, and bustling holiday shops that capture the essence of the holiday season. Released just in time for Christmas 2024, Santa’s Post Office (complete with an air balloon) and Santa’s Delivery Truck includes whimsical scenes of Santa and his elves processing letters in the North Pole and delivering presents. Plus, the Holiday Main Street comes with a couple of storefronts, a streetcar, and a centerpiece with a Christmas tree.
Another great holiday gift idea is the LEGO® Advent Calendar series, offering a little excitement each day leading up to Christmas. Themes range from LEGO® City Advent Calendars to Star Wars LEGO® Advent Calendars, with each box containing mini-figures, accessories, and small builds to create a festive holiday scene. It’s a wonderful way to count down the days until Christmas and offers daily moments of surprise.
Once you’ve chosen the perfect holiday LEGO® sets and created the perfect custom case, the next step is to figure out how to display it for the most impact. Incorporating festive décor around your LEGO® builds can elevate and transform them into beautiful holiday centerpieces.
For a festive touch, drape garland around your LEGO® display, placing it around the base of your Winter Village or stringing it along a bookshelf of LEGO® displays. Choose a garland with lights or subtle glitter to reflect the glow of your holiday decorations.
If you’re looking for a simple yet effective way to frame your LEGO® sets, try using holiday wrapping paper as a backdrop. Choose a design that complements your LEGO® build, whether it’s snowflakes for your Winter Village or a space theme for a Star Wars set. Wrapping paper backdrops are easy to set up and create a clean, festive background that highlights your holiday LEGO® displays.
Hanging mistletoe above your LEGO® display area adds romance. This small but meaningful decoration can draw attention to your LEGO® set and make it feel like part of the larger holiday décor.
To make your LEGO® gift truly memorable and lasting, consider pairing it with display accessories. Display cases protect from dust and offer an added shield from pets, kids, and curious hands, while stands lift your build to showcase its details and maintain easy accessibility. shopPOPdisplays provides a variety of LEGO® cases and stands precisely crafted to fit specific sets, such as The Disney Castle and Harry Potter™ Diagon Alley & Gringotts Wizarding Bank, or custom LEGO® displays tailored for your unique collection—expertly prepared in just two business days.

Consider choosing an LED-lit cover for a cutting-edge presentation, or opt for custom digital UV printing to create a scenic backdrop that complements your LEGO® set, leaving a lasting impression.
