It's the season, and think it would interesting topic. They are short, live in a cold climate, and have excellent carpentry skills. Maybe elves mixed with gnomes?

I used a combination of Goblin, Deep Gnome (Svirfneblin), Derro, and Redcap, depending on what sort of Christmas story I've done.
Probably just normal gnomes. What we call elves in our world has more varied meanings than in d&d.
Yeah, Gnomes.

Gnomes definitely seem to check the boxes. The can make toys, (Tinker) they're short, (Small size category) and they're jolly!

Gnomes of both kinds. The tinker gnomes makes the toys while the forest gnomes tend to the reindeer.
Edit: I forgot about Svirfneblin, I guess they work the mines to fetch lumps of coal.
