What's the tackiest item decorating your house?

An orange corduroy chair from the early 60’s. My mom tried to get rid of that hideous chair during her marriage to my dad, and I inherited it when I moved out. My ex-wife tried to get rid of it during our entire marriage, and I still have it, and not her. Sadly, the cats have attacked it with vigor and I may actually have to throw it out some day.

Some day.

My grandfathers tombstone. Guess I better explain that one - he died (as it turned out) 40 years before my grandmother when times were tough. All that “we” (well before my time on this earth) could afford was a simple stone marker “for one” basically made from a scrap piece of granite. When my grandmother passed away, we (me being me by then) all chipped in and got them a good marker with both their names. The cemetery was just going to pitch the old one so ------- basically now it sits on the tiles at my fireplace. It’s tacky in the extreme in some ways but I sort of like it.

I love this. It doesn’t sound tacky at all.

I don’t think we currently have anything that counts as tacky. When my wife and I moved in together, I gave my old roommate my beloved Jimmy Hendrix wearing a green pimp hat while playing a Strat, lovingly rendered on black velvet and sized like a saint icon to commemorate our years of living together.

Sadly, I think I am the tackiest thing in my house.
