Whoops! That didn’t work out so well.

And while it certainly doesn’t help to hold the pan like that, we’re thinking this can be saved with some Starwars figurines and a Santa hat.

Or just work with melted Frosty and remind the kiddies that life is all about disappointment and the things you love eventually melting away. Kids love that.

O Poopmas tree, o Poopmas tree
How lovely are thy branches

Huh, doesn’t seem as festive. Not sure why.

So are we really going with the fecal decor for Christmas in this mall? Is there any other way to interpret this?

At least it gave people a holiday laugh. But as a tree, it’s a big, stinky, mysteriously sparkly fail.

Ok, so we’ll give the people at Kohl’s some credit because – to be fair – The Abominable Snowmonster of the North (aka “Bumble”) did reform himself and ask for a job at the end of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

But do we so easily forget that before that he had some serious anger management issues, got enraged by Rudolph’s red nose, and once hated Christmas so much that he kidnapped Rudolf, Hermey, and Yukon Cornelius? He even hit the reindeer so hard that Rudolph got knocked out!

I mean, c’mon, in order to escape they had to pull out all his teeth and push him off a cliff!

Wait…is anyone else wondering why that show was so violent?

Needless to say, we’ll pass on the decor. We’re not entirely sure he didn’t eat Santa and take his place.

Ok, even if reindeer can’t really fly, they’re at least strong enough to pull a sleigh. Bunnies? Not so much.

Did Lindt think no one would notice, or were reindeer just too hard to make?

At least you can save the leftovers for Easter and no one will be the wiser.

Yep, nailed it!

There’s nothing that says “Happy Holidays!” like a festive front door bloodbath.

Think of the stories you can tell the neighborhood children about what happened and why they need to be good all year.

So those AREN’T butts?

Ok, maybe it’s the angle. Or the lighting.

Or maybe you bought reindeer that look like people bending over pantsless.

We really hope these were designed to be a terrifying Christmas nightmare.

In fact, these are the kind of Christmas decorations we can get behind people hanging up at Halloween.

Just please don’t tell us where they got the eyes.

Holiday baking fails are the best – at least when they’re not your own.

This one’s pretty impressive because everything is utterly unidentifiable. Like, it’s not even a melted-looking gingerbread man. It’s just a blob.

Merry Blobmas! We hope they at least tasted good!

Ok, so maybe that’s baby Jesus? But then who’s that behind him looking all creepy?

And we just have one question for the designers of this “precious” ornament. Did you mean for it to look like a thumb?

We’re not feelin’ the Christmas spirit here.

Did grandma buy these at that “bookstore” near the truckstop?

We’re just going to back away from the rude jokes and leave you to make your own.

All we’ll say is that those are some awfully big “candles.”

Well, now you know where Christmas trees really come from.

Or maybe someone told him to stick a tree where the sun doesn’t shine.

Either way, this was an interesting (if disturbing) decor choice.

Times are tough. Maybe Santa couldn’t afford the reindeer this year.

And sometimes you just can’t find good help and have to do it all yourself.

Or maybe this is just one heck of a weird ornament.

Just in case you aren’t flexible enough to see Santa adorning your rear end, he’ll be there every time you sit down – staring at you. And he’ll probably be wondering why you’re wearing pictures of him on your butt.

Where on the naughty list do you even end up for that?

When you’re done with the judgment though, you can just stand up. And then he’ll be a weird upside-down knee Santa.

Who the heck designed these? Drunk elves?

Poor Frosty. We’re all for making a living however you see fit, but we have some major concerns about the blood spatter below him.

Does he need a doctor?

Is that what happened to the last snowman to fail at his job?

What? And WHY?

Do these things pass through any kind of focus group?

Do we really need to say that you shouldn’t wait until Christmas to open in case of an emergency?

Apparently, these have been around for a long time and many a commenter remembered seeing one at their grandparents’ house.

But that makes them 0% less creepy.

Seriously, who was the model for this angel?

Who designed this and what is wrong with them?!

Sometimes you have to step back and look at the big picture before you OK a design.

Or perhaps people just like hiding really creepy things (like peeping Toms) to Christmas decor. And what’s with the split skirt? How is that festive?

So, not only do you misspell the word (and we get how it happens, they were likely made in a non-English-speaking country), but they make it all the way to production AND shipping!

And then people display them on the salesroom floor?

People – it’s not a hard word to spell.

We’re not sure who designed them or who hung them up and thought “yep, job well done, doesn’t look like panties at all,” but we have some questions for them.

We’re sure many people passed under the charming holiday underwear and were none the wiser.

The problem is that once you see it, you can’t unsee it.

The bathroom is probably one place you can hold back on the holiday decor.

And we think if you’ve gotten a bit too much fiber out of your Christmas snacks, then this is probably a pretty inconvenient thing to have to pick up to fix any clogs.

We just hope those get washed REALLY well at the end of the season.

Well, there’s only one thing to do when your holiday Pinterest fail turns out like this.

Make up a story about Frosty’s evil brother, Shnosty.

A really clever parent would include something about children having to be really good or else risk having their presents stolen by Shnosty.

See, blackmail can be festive!

There’s not much to say here other than maybe you should put your giant Christmas orgy somewhere more private.

There are ways to decorate palm trees with lights so they don’t look quite so…phallic.

It’s just that people choose not to.

Enjoy explaining the display to your kids!

There’s no rule that says a fail can’t also be funny and clever.

It’s just that we’ll also be seeing this surgical glove tree in our nightmares, beckoning us closer until it either strangles us or performs some sort of invasive exam.

Good thing this was taken 7 years ago or else people would be mad about the misuse of PPE.

We don’t think it takes a dirty mind to see what’s wrong with this.

These snowmen could have been positioned in plenty of other ways that didn’t make it look so…risque.

We realize snowmom and snowbaby are using dad as a sled…but did no one stand back and think “that’s not what I see here” before this went into production?

We get it. At night, Santa moves and it looks like he’s putting down a gift.

Alas, in the daytime, it does not look like that.

Luckily, most kids won’t see it like adults do.

How does this look like anything other than…well, NOT a candle.

Are those supposed to be berries underneath?

We’re pretty sure whoever designed this knew exactly what they were doing. So it’s a win for them.

For the town that hung them up? Not so much.

First of all, whoever made this wrapping paper needed to introduce some strategic spacing between words.

But our real question is: did a teenager wrap this or did someone only realize what they did after they taped it all up?

Granted, for many, this would be a holiday win.

We’re not sure if this is a misspelling or a prank, but either way, we’re concerned.

Then again, maybe there’s no better way to convince kids to try their best to stay off the naughty list.

Start them early, lest they get on the REALLY naughty list.

Ok, so she didn’t exactly overindulge so much as accidentally buy a child’s size sweater.

Or maybe the real fail was assuming this came in an adult size at all.

Looks like someone will be going topless to the ugly sweater party.

Ah yes, babies and Christmas. It all seems like it’s going to be so magical.

And then it always looks like this.

Good thing you’ll always have photos like this to remind your kids just how much they appreciated all the hard work you did to make the holidays perfect.
