I helped my mom decorate our Christmas tree last night, and I came across a box of Thomas Pacconi ornaments my dad collected from the Q over the years. Oh, how I cried! My dad loved these ornaments so much. I found my favorite little blue church. I placed it right at the top of our tree. 

 

I searched the QVC site to see if there were other Thomas Pacconi ornaments, but it seems they're not sold here anymore. I snatched up a few from Etsy that my dad didn't have, but I can't find any sets. Did Thomas Pacconi move to a different shopping network by chance? I would like to get some ornaments for my tree so I can feel like I have a piece of my dad with me by collecting the ornaments he loved. 

 

Thank you!

Gosh, I don’t know but I loved his ornaments when he was on the Q. Maybe someone else will know.

From a quick Google search, I’m only seeing them at ETSY and eBay...so, I’m guessing they are only available as vintage items?

Good luck! What treasured memories for you!

According to LinkedIn, he's now a shift manager at Walgreens, no longer in the ornament business.

Lots of Pacconi ornament sets are available on eBay.

Oh wow! That's shocking. Smiley Sad When I googled to find ornaments, that didn't show up. All I found was the Etsy and eBay links. How sad. 

 

Thanks for the info.

           They’re listed on the Ruby Lane site, too.  Good luck in searching for these lovely vintage mementoes, @KaliaMonet.❤️

I see a couple of sets on Amazon along with his Christmas music box and some of the large figurines of snowmen.

How nice to find the ornaments.  I have several things from T.P. collection. I don't know what happened to him after he left the Q.....his name brings back memories of some of the interesting things QVC used to sell.

I have several of his items also. When he left QVC he went to SHOPNBC which is now Evine. I really don't know what happen to him after that.

Re: Thomas Pacconi Ornaments

I think I have some of his ornaments; I have the different fruits that came in a wooden crate-------does that sound like his?  But also bought one of his faux xmas trees about 20+ years ago---it needs to be replaced soon as the branches are unwinding from it. And there are about 10 separate cords that need to be plugged in too. thought he was a nice man--didn't his wife die during his time with the Q--he then kind of disappeared.
