Ugly Ornament Party

Last week some of our friends hosted the annual Ugly Ornament Party. The premise is simple: everyone brings the ugliest homemade or purchased Christmas ornament they can find, and the group votes for the ugliest. This year’s crop was smaller than in years past but included some HORRIBLE ornaments. Here they are:

The Winner! – Neil and Ginger made this monstrosity using a bag of plastic body parts they bought at Wal-Mart for a buck. (?) His tongue is sticky.

This squirrel is a bit…nutty.

Left: the Three Little Pigs’ house with the Big Bad Wolf dangling inexplicably underneath.
Right: (our entry) a ballerina pig. Nothing like pigs to celebrate the birth of a Jewish baby.

Outer: a wreath made of tissue paper that somehow looks like a toilet seat.
Inner: I guess it was supposed to be one of those first-Christmas-as-a-married-couple ornaments, but the bride and groom look like zombies.
