Christmas time has a lot of moving parts. There are decorations to hang. Presents to buy.
Party planning to do. There is also baking and cooking. So, there’s a lot of room for things to go wrong.
But that isn’t always a bad thing. Sometimes things can go hilariously wrong. And that can make for some pretty special Christmas memories.
Here are 60 hilarious Christmas fails that actually made the holidays better:
This person attempted to fully wrap their gift. But they ran out of wrapping paper. They then improvised like a champion.
What should I get grandpa? “Get him a nice shirt,” is what you’re told. Well, that almost always works. Almost.
Grandma thought she was buying herself a nice subtle Christmas jumper. You know, something that’s not too loud or tacky. Something tasteful. But she didn’t look at it close enough.
Patty and Linus are a thing now. The wrapping paper says so. They need to get a room.
It was supposed to be a nice Christmas getaway. But they weren’t getting anywhere. Except in. They are definitely staying in for Christmas.

These pups sure do love Christmas. Maybe a little bit too much. They really love the whole getting presents things.
This guy ordered food to make a delicious Christmas meal. He thought he was buying a bag of Brussel sprouts. He got one sprout.
Grandma loves puzzles. And maybe even
Star Wars . But she thought Yoda was an elf.
At the stroke of midnight on 2021, this child is no longer loved. He had about seven days of love after getting this card. After that, it was over.
10) Nightmare Decorations
Nutcrackers are the creepiest of Chrismas decorations. And these people had giant ones. Paired with fog… super spooky.
11) Merry Violent Christmas
This was supposed to be a nice Christmas card photo shoot. But it turned into the most aggressive Christmas card I have ever seen. I love it.
This year, they hit the mother load. It’s the ugliest tree out of all the ugly trees. Charlie Brown’s got nothing on this tree.
USPS had this guy’s gift held back. But that’s a pretty sweet cow. I wouldn’t even be mad.
14) Christmas Card Gone Wrong
We always take Christmas card photos with the ones that we love. So this woman wanted to include her sheep. She really loves those sheep.
This 6-year-old got tattoo markers for Christmas. She disappeared for a half hour and came back looking like this. No one can get it to come off so, she’s a little concerned.
This is fancy wrapping paper gone wrong. It’s always so alluring. So sparkley. But it always ends in disaster.

This is the sweetest thing ever. Moms are the cutest. She said one thing about bees and, well…
This guys is lookin’ real sharp. Real sharp and real festive. Corporate should be impressed.
You know this isn’t really a bad thing. Dad looks like he really likes that shirt. He could probably use two.
Merry Christmas! Tits? What the heck does this wrapping paper actually say?
This cat was highly insulted that no one got her a pair of matching Christmas pajamas. Not only that, but they didn’t even ask her to be in the photo. She wasn’t about to let these indignities stand.
Dad made these guys in his workshop. They’re supposed to be “decorative trees.” They sure do look like something.
23) $50 B0ttle of Soy Sauce
His sister-in-law always buys him some Japanese whiskey for Christmas. This time she didn’t read the label so well. It’s a $50 bottle of soy sauce.
This is Tom. He really likes Christmas. This is Tom’s first Christmas. You can tell he’s really excited about it.
These are two of the same exact gifts. His girlfriend bought him the same gift that he bought her. Now that’s love.
This kid is real serious about wrapping presents. He’s real secretive about it. He even put up a sign.
What a lovely Christmas Day. Perfect for staying in and being cozy. Especially since it’s pretty deep out there.
This Santa looks like he’s constipated. And pooping out children. Not a great design.
29) What You Order vs. What You Get
This person ordered this gorgeous full tall rainbow tree. But that’s not what this person got. You have to be careful where you order from.

This is wrapping paper was finger painted by a child. But it looks like a scary murder scene instead. Not very jolly.

Someone got this for their 80-year-old father. He quickly tucked it away after opening it. When his daugther asked him why it’s because he said he thought it was a sex toy.
This gives a whole new meaning to the world buttface. The faces on those reindeer look like butts. Some pancake looking ass cheeks.
33) Playstation Controller
His parents are in their 70s. They got him a PlayStation5 controller for Christmas. He doesn’t own a PlayStation 5.
Apparently, no one has seen
A Christmas Story in this neigborhood. They just think they have a creep living next door. Who puts a “weird, gross leg” on display.
Can you guess what this is supposed to be? It’s a solider kneeling. But it dosen’t really look like that.
This was a Christmas present gone terrible wrong. They got him a magnifying glass. Within hours, the lawn was on fire.

On the left is what she got. On the right, is what she ordered. Looks like a drunken mall Santa.
That may not be the best sign. You don’t want to give people ideas. Like the kid with the magnifying glass.
It might be time to retire this towel. It’s missing a few letters. About three of them.
This cat got stuck in the wall on Christmas. They were finally able to get the cat out. And then he tried to get back in.
This person disappoints every year at his in-laws gingerbread house competition. That’s OK. That’s not gingerbread anyway.
These kids got a drone for Christmas. Now it’s in her hair. Good luck getting that thing out.
43) Clothes for Christmas
Getting clothes for Christmas as a kid is just sad in itself. But getting a shirt that you already have AND that you’re already wearing. That’s just too much.
At 23, he can rebuild an engine, fabricate his own parts, and drive anything with a steering wheel. But this is how he wraps Christmas gifts. Not great.
This couldn’t be more accurate. It perfectly sums up travelling with a toddler at Christmas. Good times.
She was making the perfect ornament. Only to realize she was painting it upside down. She still has to put it on the tree.
47) Expectation vs. Reality
It’s always fun to look up cool recipes during the holidays. They just don’t always come out the way we expect them to. Like these Santa cupcakes.
Some people just don’t have the patience for gingerbread house building. This person gave it a go though. It’s more like a gingerbread pile.
Yeah, but what holiday. Halloween? Are these Halloween cookies?
It’s nice when you have a Secret Santa that really knows you. But this Secret Santa might have known him just a little too well. Everyone at the party went wild over it.
This person accidentally made Christmas Boobs. Or nipple cookies. Ingredients matter.
This was supposed to be a really cute Christmas card. It started out that way. It didn’t end that way though.

53) Brother and Boyfriend
Something just isn’t quite right here. Is it supposed to be brother and “HIS” boyfriend? Otherwise, this card is illegal in most states.
54) Christmas Ice Marbles
Here we have another reality vs. expectation scenario. They tried to make Christmas ice marbles. How did they screw that up?
55) Self Destructive Christmas
This person almost destoryed their Christmas present. That’s a bummer. Should be able to tape it.
He bought his wife perfume last Christmas. Now it’s being used as bathroom air freshener. Tough break.
Picture a beautiful Christmas morning. And your house is covered in puke. Someone bought this family a box of fudge. The dogs sniffed it out and opened it. Then puked all over the house.
Dad is NOT amused with his Christmas present. He looks pretty pissed off actually. His Christmas wasn’t a very merry one.
This was someone’s “big” Christmas gift. They also have a puppy. The puppy got to it first.
60) Sibling Gift Exchange
This is a VERY accurate description of a sibling gift exchange. One of them is broke the other isn’t. One of them gets a box, the other an iPhone.
