This isn’t Christmassy but it was too good not to share.

I actually love this!

RendeersDancingTowardsChristmas · 30/11/2025 00:18

Not sure what it is...

How about some sweet cones that seem to have acquired confectionery related CPTSD.
or a light up giraffe bottle: clearly I missed the bit at school where a fucking giraffe formed a part of the nativity or indeed Santa’s sleigh.
there are always some remarkably phallic knitted toadstools to help convey the sheer magic that is fungi at Yuletide
final offering for now is more completely useless tat serving no purpose fashioned from a cut of Christmas tree and a cheap bauble to festoon your house.

Anything with googly eyes is fine by me

I see your wooden stick reindeer and raise you my five googly eyed ones

Off to put googly eyes on my wooden reindeer and I don’t give a flying Santa what anyone thinks!

Resin Christmas gnomes anyone?

To be fair, these are pretty good. A hint of Lalique about them.

I did say a hint.

It’s looks as though it’s survived some sort of forest fire, poor creature

Exactly how many butter knives does this person own…..

I could imagine Donnie excitedly showing Melania what he'd bought for the Big Table in White House. And her narrowing her eyes and it disappearing mysteriously.

@ticktickticktickBOOM - what on earth is that purple stuff meant to be pouring out of the cup?

Ectoplasm?

I assumed it was coleslaw?

Festive, purple, glittery coleslaw. In a tea cup. Its a Christmas tradition.

I'm just pondering whether to get this home made festive carrot or the giant Christmas crucifix, tastefully swathed in tinsel and lights.

😂 😂

stuff of nightmares! there certainly seems to be a plethora of reindeer!
Following the chocolate theme seems to be a lot of people who rip off the wrappers and put home-printed labels with names or something rude on!

My local sales pages are a bit disappointing, nothing truly shite yet... The absolutely useless wool wreath has to be my favourite.

The concrete Santa’s been at the sherry hasn’t he 😱

On second glance it actually resembles a cluster of hemorrhoids?

MilkAndFenty · 30/11/2025 15:24

I don’t have the screenshot anymore as it was a few years ago now, but someone was flogging dried orange slices for 20p each, and it was AFTER Christmas. Ideal for next years wreaths apparently!

Ta-da! What every teacher wants. An empty wine bottle filled with fairy lights

Haha I’ve actually got 3 of these (all given last Christmas by children in my class).

I’ve put them in my back porch…not sure where else they’d go to be honest, but the children were excited to give them, and I was of course happy for them.

To be fair, when we sit in the garden at ‘dusk’, they come outside and do look ok, twinkling away on my garden table 🥰

This is being sold on my local Facebook for £10!

Is it a dead snowman?

I’m bookmarking this thread. I’m always amazed and the shite people make, think it’s amazing and that people will want to buy it.

The thing is people do buy it 😂😂 we are a world made up of all different kinds.

Not sure if this would look lovely as a tree topper or should go straight in the bin?

🤣🤣 Absolutely hideous!! When Utter met Crap.
