Christmas Cookies (US 2026)

Announced by the USPS on June 29th

Since 1962, contemporary Christmas stamps have added cheer to holiday cards and letters. This year’s issuance celebrates a favorite holiday pastime: baking and decorating Christmas cookies. Featuring four sugar cookies, each with distinct decorations, the stamps were designed by Kyrie Johnson — who also baked the cookies — and Greg Breeding, a USPS art director. Sarah Cramer Shields was the photographer.

These stamps will be issued September 19 in Washington, DC.

(Earlier (February 18): The Virtual Stamp Club has learned that this year’s contemporary Christmas stamps will depict some holiday treats and be issued in September. We’ll post details when they become available.)
