12 Days of Holiday Stuff for 2016

‘Tis the season for holiday shopping, when our friendly retailers try to convince us that every surface is fair game for Christmas decorations.

Back by popular demand, we present our annual “non-shopping guide” to help you resist the retail call and enjoy the gift of a simple, peaceful Christmas season.

Here are this year’s picks for 12 holiday things we probably don’t really need:

1. Holiday refrigerator handle covers.

 

 

2. A poinsettia sofa cover.

 

 

3. A snowman family decal for your garage door.

 

 

4. A pair of green Christmas tree tongs.

 

 

5. An inflatable holiday wreath that counts down the number of days remaining until Christmas.

 

 

6. A set of Santa hat chair covers:

 

 

7. A Santa toilet tissue holder.

 

 

8. A festive solar lighted mailbox gift box cover:

 

 

9. Sports-themed nutcrackers:

 

 

10. The Santa hat condiment set.

 

 

11. Holiday curtains.

 

 

And finally…
