Combine Christmas with the coronavirus and what do you get? An array of hilarious COVID-themed ornaments for your holiday tree!

Because let’s face it: As we hunker down this holiday season and brace for a second (or third) wave of infections, we could all stand for a little laughter right now. And a holiday ornament shaped like toilet paper is sure to get a chuckle or two—and, years later, will spark memories of just how weird a ride 2020 truly was.

So if you’re craving some timely additions to your holiday decor this year, consider some of these coronavirus-themed Christmas tree ornaments and decorations below.

1. Masked Santa

St. Nick knows how to cover up right.

Amazon

Of course the light-blue surgical face mask is the epitome of 2020 gloom and doom, which means Santa, his many elves, and all those fuzzy brown reindeer will be seen with masks of every size and color covering noses and snouts ($8.50, Amazon).

2. Toilet paper

Two-ply or 4? Either way, TP is rockin’ Christmas this year.

Etsy

Remember those toilet paper shortages? Here’s to hoping they never happen again. Still, if you’re into bathroom humor with a COVID-19 twist, this Charmin-themed ornament is for you ($17, Etsy).

3. COVID-19 virus

The virus on the tree will remind you to wash your hands.

Etsy

We’ve all seen depictions of the COVID-19 germ: red, prickly, deadly. It’s your call as to whether it’s a welcome bauble for your holiday tree ($15, Etsy).

4. First responder

Thank your local EMTs, and place this one front and center.

Amazon

Doctors, nurses, ambulance drivers, and other medical staff put their lives on the line to treat their fellow Americans this year. Bonus: You can personalize this cute guy for the favorite first responder in your family ($15, Amazon).

5. Hand sanitizer

Here’s to a germ-free Yule!

Amazon

Hand sanitizer became a permanent fixture in our homes this year. So it makes sense it would appear on our trees, too ($8, Amazon).

6. Zoom meeting

Can you hear me now? #Zoomsucks

Etsy

You’ve Zoomed your family check-ins and Zoomed those weekly budget meetings. Your kids have Zoomed school, and your book club insists on Zooming, too. To pay tribute to this ubiquitous platform, why not get a Zoom ornament, too ($25, Etsy).

7. Lysol wipes

Why didn’t I buy stock in Lysol last year?

Etsy

In the “before” times you kept a tub of disinfectant wipes under the sink for when the dog lost its lunch on the living room floor. But now, wipes are everywhere, and deserve a spot on your fir tree ($18, Etsy).

8. Quarantine baking

Brioche, babka, and buns, oh my!

PersonalizedOrnamentsForYou

Got a sister or neighbor who cooked her way through Ina Garten‘s books during quarantine? Here’s the ideal gift ($15, PersonalizedOrnamentsForYou) for her tree (or your own) to commemorate the many hours spent laboring over dinners from around the world. Tagine, anyone?

9. Puppy love

Puppy adoptions soared in 2020.

Callister Christmas

At your weakest moment you rescued a pooch to keep the kids happy and to spread a little love (and lots of kibble and fur) in your home. Admit it, it’s the best decision you’ve ever made, so show it on your tree with pride ($15, Callister Christmas).

10. The middle finger

We all feel like flipping the bird at 2020.

Etsy

Yup—this is how we really feel about 2020. From the deadly coronavirus to the wackiest-ever election, we are so ready for this year to be over—and this ornament can help you give it the heave-ho ($12.50, Etsy).
