A personalised Santa key for a home without a chimney: an oak key engraved "Father Christmas' Magic key" or "Santa's Magic Key" with snowflakes on the round end, and your children's names or house name along the blade. Hang it up on Christmas Eve and Father Christmas has his own way in. Cut from FSC-certified oak veneered MDF with a green satin ribbon, and made to order in our workshop in North Wales.

How to order

  1. Choose the heading: "Father Christmas' Magic key" (as in the photos) or "Santa's Magic Key".
  2. Type the wording for the blade into the personalisation box, exactly as it should be engraved, for example "Milly and Polly's House" or "The Jones Family". The blade fits two short lines.
  3. Ordering for a class, nursery or Christmas fair? Upload a spreadsheet in the Names Spreadsheet field, one name or wording per row, or type them into the personalisation box, one per line, and set the quantity to match. Bulk discounts apply automatically at checkout, per product: 10% off 20+, 15% off 50+, 20% off 100+, 25% off 250+, 30% off 500+ and 35% off 1,000+.
  4. Add to basket.

The heading and snowflakes are the same on every key you order in one line; only the wording on the blade changes.

FAQ

What is a Santa key?
A key left out on Christmas Eve so Father Christmas can let himself into a home with no chimney. The story is that it works by magic, for him alone. Our guide What is a Santa key? covers where the tradition came from and how families use it.

Where should I hang it?
On the inside of the front door, on the door handle, on the Christmas tree or wherever your children will look for it. It is made for indoor use, so keep it out of the rain.

Is it a real key?
No. It is a flat wooden key shape and opens nothing, which is how it should be: never leave a working house key outside for Father Christmas.

How do I order keys with different names for a class?
Make a spreadsheet with one name per row, upload it in the Names Spreadsheet field and set the quantity to the number of keys. Names are engraved exactly as written, so check the spellings first.

Can we use it again next year?
Yes. Unless you add one, there is no year on it, so the same key comes out every Christmas Eve. In the usual version of the story, Father Christmas leaves it somewhere easy to find, ready for next time.
