Originally, they had a specialty artist create them, but it wasn't cheap. Eventually the art department took over and started doing them in-house.
 
On the show, they specially order the ornaments from a man who creates them. Maggie specifically said his name a couple years ago. It was either when they added one for Sonny or Thomas. I think maybe it was Thomas' ornament because she said something like "Mr. So-and-So really had to rush this one for us."

Found it. It was Thomas' ornament in 2015:
Julie and Maggie begged, baked, and bribed to get "Mr Earley" to finish Thomas' ornament on time.
 
Every year I look at these ornaments and think, "Who would put those horrible things on their tree??" They really are the ugliest ornaments I've ever seen. The tradition is nice. It's too bad when they started it, they didn't select some pretty ornaments.
 
Thanks for posting, Jason.

Well, I cherish our old family 'heirloom' ornaments that are scraped, dented, or torn and place them on our tree every year. They hold precious life long Christmas memories of beloved relatives/friends, and I really do not care if someone else finds them 'tattered or torn'. Maybe that is how the Hortons view their ornaments too.
