Bizarre Christmas Crafts

What is it about Christmas that makes people think they can turn any old thing into a lovely decoration? Or even worse, a lovely gift?

We’ve all heard of Tampon Angels, and I doubt anything can beat that for tackiness, but a close runner up would be the Milkbone Reindeer ornaments I saw in a craft magazine. Little milkbone dog biscuits sprayed with varnish. Add googly eyes, a pompom nose, a couple of twisted brown pipe cleaners and voila!

Or… take anything small, poke a hole in it, tie a string through the hole, spray paint it gold… Instant ornament!

WTF?:eek:

I can assure you that I have never heard of such a thing! Yikes! That is bizarrely tacky. Are they hung up by the string? Do I even want to know? Yowza.

Thankfuly, I’ve only seen them on the internet and not in person.

Sure, use up the all time tackiest most bizarre Christmas craft, then ask us to follow… [sub]why would…[/sub]
I guess the clothes pin soldiers my husband’s mom made sound perfectly normal.

I’ll see your Tampon Angel and raise the pot with Holiday Themed Maxi Pad Bedroom Slippers. :smiley:

Wow, just the other day I was complaining about not having any house shoes, and I had a whole box of them in the bathroom!
