Take your pick...............

 I was in Home Depot the other week with hubby, so I wandered around the Christmas section, while he was doing his stuff, and I stumbled upon these:


Yep, those are mini Home Depot buckets/pails for your Christmas tree.  They're ornaments???  As I said to the girl at the check out, what a waste of 98 cents...LOL  Mind you some enterprising person could fancy them up I guess?  Me personally I am saving my 98 cents!!

Then I got an email from the Stanley site letting me know about the upcoming release and I saw these:


I am sorry about the quality of the photo, you can see a clearer version on the site here.  Again they are Christmas tree ornaments and are $70 CDN for the set of four.  In this case I love the colour of them, but who would decorate their Christmas tree with water tumbler's?  Also I would never pay that for something so useless!!  I will say I love the colour ways of this Christmas release with LoveShackFancy, despite not knowing who they are..LOL.  You can see the collection here.

Just looked up LoveShackFancy, and I can safely say I won't be shopping there any time soon for myself!!

We had friends who had a sunroom at the back of their house facing the garden and lake and they had a tree in it decorated with garden tools, seed packets, etc. Those Home Depot ornaments would have been perfect for that tree.

I wouldn't buy either one of them either. Can't imagine why anybody else would either.

What?!!! Those buckets are why we're all swimming in microplastics. Sigh.

Jackie said...

Why on earth would a person use either of those on their Christmas tree? They really do try and sell us absolutely anything and the price is crazy.

God bless.

Not a fan of the buckets and although the mugs? Are pretty colours. They’re way to expensive for me.

I could maybe see using the little buckets as treat buckets for a little boy's birthday party. Maybe with a little wooden craft.
But wow on the price of the mugs.

Crazy busy
