Attention Christmas lovers! This year, you get to decorate for the holiday as early as you want and no one can say a thing about it, even if you start decorating before Halloween. Why? Well, for the most part, we're all still doing the social distancing thing so it's not like a bunch of people are going to be coming through your home and judging how early you decorate for Christmas or how long you leave those decorations up. So, if Christmas makes you giddy, go for giddy. And may we suggest a few Christmas tree ornaments that are perfect for 2020.

And what makes these ornaments perfect for 2020? They take into account what we've all been dealing with this year. Think face masks, toilet paper scarcity, social distancing—you get the picture. Why commemorate these less-than-pleasant things during the holiday and every year thereafter when you pull out the ornaments? Because 2020 was not canceled. It happened and it is one for the history books. Let's be proud of ourselves for dealing, let's celebrate our fortitude, let's have a sense of humor about it.
So that you always have toilet paper.
Remember when toilet paper became the "it" item of the year? One day we weren't thinking much about it and just assumed there would always be enough to go around, and then the next, toilet paper because a precious commodity. We started rationing it for fear that we would run out and not be able to get more. Ahh, good times! Wait, no, not good times.
Speaking of toilet paper!
This ornament makes us wonder if Santa will stuff our stockings with toilet paper this year? It's not a bad idea now that we all feel like we always need to have a backup stash of TP around. Santa, if you're listening, replace lumps of coal with toilet paper, please.
The one that's perfect for you or your friends.
If you are a fan of the TV show Friends, then this ornament might be just the one that you need to get this year. It would also make a great gift for any friends you may have who love Friends or for one of the actors on Friends, if you know one.
Well, look at this coronavirus cutie!
No, the coronavirus has not been cute in real life, but this ornament is a pretty cute representation of the spikey virus. The mask on it is a great reminder that wearing one helps slow the spread of this deadly virus.
Check out this prepared snowman.
A polite snowman in 2020 can't be showing up to your home without some toilet paper, hand sanitizer, and a face mask. That would just be wrong. How many actual snowmen do you think people will make this year that are wearing face masks?
Hand sanitizer, anyone?
Hand sanitizer has been one of the most sought-after items this whole year, and it makes total sense to include it in your coronavirus-inspired Christmas tree.
Get yourself a quaran-tree ornament.
We love a good pun as much as the next pun lover and this pun is pretty timely. We're all going to be decorating quaran-trees! We love how this ornament depicts toiler paper as a garland. We would never waste our precious toilet paper that way, but it's funny to see.
A gingerbread man who knows what’s up.
This gingerbread dude got a heads up from Santa and a few snowmen telling him that he needed to wear a mask and provide his own toilet paper if he wants to hang out on a tree this year. He did what he had to do and he looks pretty cute doing it, too.
This reindeer ain't playin' any games.
Santa sent out a memo to all the reindeers saying that if they wanted to be a part of the team on the big night, they'd have to wear masks. This reindeer got the memo and is even bringing his own TP just in case the rest stops don't have any.
Perfect for nurses.
Nurses have been on the frontlines all year taking care of so many patients and risking their own health. Say thank you to a nurse in your life with a personalized ornament that lets them know they are your hero.
It's been real!
No doubt about it, the toilet paper struggle in 2020 was R-E-A-L. Seriously, at the beginning of the year, we were wiping with abandon. By March, we were trying to figure out how to make every square count because we were literally counting squares.
Masked up and ready to go.
Like so many essential workers, Santa and Rudolph will have to mask up before they set out to make their special deliveries. Rudolph might be bummed about covering his famous red nose, but he knows that everyone has to make sacrifices for the good health of all.
For all the essential people in your life.
If anything, 2020 has taught us to be truly grateful for the essential people in our lives. For the people who deliver our mail, our groceries, and anything else we might need. For the people who pick up our garbage. For the people who go to work so that we can all survive.
Seriously, what the bell?!
This year has left us all feeling like "What the H double hockey sticks?!" But "what the bell" has a much more festive ring to it and it's perfect for the season. We might replace all curse words with the word bell. As in bell you, or up your bell! Just kidding.
Santa is no fool.
Santa complained to Mrs. Claus that it would be too hard to eat cookies with a mask on this year, but Mrs. Claus was not having any of his nonsense. She told him that he has to wear a mask or else he won't get any of her cookies. Well, Santa is no fool and so he'll wear a mask.
To celebrate your quaran-team.
You can have custom ornaments created with your quaran-team members names on them. The skin tones can vary and you can choose from two to seven people to include on your ornament. That way you can always remember who you stayed home with all year long.
