Only two new holiday stamps were released for the 2025 season by the U.S. Postal Service this year, but old favorites for Christmas, Kwanzaa, and Hanukkah are still available at the current Forever rate of 78 cents each.

New this year, the Winter Landscapes Forever stamps showcase five photographs of snow and ice, including red barns in the snow, a long fence among snow-frosted trees, and icicles against a sunset and frozen waves. Photographers John Moore, Juanita Phillips, Katherine Plessner, Carson O’Ffill, and Mike Blottenberger all contributed to the 20-stamp booklets that sell for $15.60.

Winter Landscapes were issued on Sept. 19.

USPS issued Holiday Cheer stamps on Sept. 13. The four images include amaryllis flowers, a holiday wreath topped with a red bow, winter fruit set against an evergreen branch, and cardinals atop mistletoe. They are the work of artist Denise Fieldler.

Also still available from 2024 are the Winter Whimsy stamps, which depict handcut snowflakes; the colorful Kwanzaa stamps, with dancing and drumming figures; and a Hanukkah stamp with a handdrawn menorah on a blue background.

The Holiday Joy stamps, featuring Christmas tree ornaments and the Christmas Madonna and Child stamps with its look of Rennaissance art, are also available. Both were new in 2024.
