The Merry Christmas Thread

It is covered in angels. To put this in perspective, remember that scene from 300 with the dead townspeople nailed to a tree? It looks like that, and more than one person has made the comparison. Here are some pictures:

And yes, the tree topper does look like an odd kind of fungus.

Oh wow... that is probably one of the ugliest trees I've seen in a while. The topper looks like the tree is exploding.

I've never been much of a Christmas fanatic, I just like seeing my family. However, what is Christmas without a tree? I bought a black Christmas tree and decorated it with tinsel that has purple bats on it. Props to mommy for making me spider ornaments, too, so I have a bunch of jewel-colored spiders on it. It sounds ridiculous, but it's actually quite pretty, just... unusual lol.

It looks short and dinky in the photo but it's 5 feet tall.

Still not sure what I want as a topper though!
