When it comes to decorating your Christmas tree, a lot of the process comes down to personal preference. Some people love tradition. Traditional colors, traditional styles and a traditional approach all leave very little wiggle room for creativity in Christmas tree decoration. Others aren’t so bound to the classics. If it looks nice, makes you smile or maybe even just came free with your cereal, then cram that ornament on the tree! If you fall into the latter category, this list is for you. Personally, we believe that no Christmas tree is complete without a couple of funny Christmas ornaments, and we’re always looking for more to add to our holiday collection.
