PRESS PHOTO COURTESY SHOPPE AT HOTEL BETHLEHEMSanta’s favorite helpers check off their lists at the Shoppe at Hotel Bethlehem. Collectors look forward to Historic Hotel Bethlehem’s annual ornament release every year. Since 2011, artist Peter Preiss has hand-painted holiday hotel scenes. This year’s ornaments feature the local icon dusted with snow and the Star of Bethlehem in an icy blue sky. The annual collectible peppermint bark tin is also available while supplies last. It features artwork from local photographer Chris Fiegel and candy from Bazzini, a Lehigh Valley confectioner.
