Forget the tree and the beard bauble, it's soooo last year darling ...
Gone are the days when grown men grew a beard to better display their rugged good looks this years its all about decorating their facial hair with glitter.
A-WHEY in a Manger ....
Having taken five days and 6lbs 4oz of mature Cheddar a food sculptor had grate fun creating a nativity scene made entirely from cheese.
Cheese not your thing? How about cake?
With 10kgs of icing, 5 kgs of marzipan, 3 kgs of gingerbread and 1kg of chocolate an Essex baking expert has come up with a festive treat you can wear by creating the world's first completely edible Christmas jumper.
And in another first ....
Not content with keeping children happy this Christmas a Manchester based company have opened the country's first pet grotto where well-behaved pets (yes, Father Christmas also knows if they have been naughty or nice. TT) get to meet Santa Paws, try some tasty treats along with the chance to try on some festive costumes.
Oh my goodness! So they do ....
A Devon town's Christmas lights have been branded 'pants' because they look like a string of giant undies.
Better pants than this?
Describing his tree commission by a five star London hotel as a 'Celebration of togetherness'. Controversial artist Damien Hirst's latest installation, a thirty foot Christmas tree decorated with scissors, syringes and medicine bottles as opposed to the more usual baubels and tinsel, has caused consternation amongst Mayfair residents.
Ah, that festive favourite - the Brussel Sprout!

One of the local shelters here has a Santa photo op for people to bring their pets in to see Santa. It's been going on for years. I've never taken our pets, but a friend takes her dogs every year. :-)
I love your media Monday posts. :-)
What a great collection of stories this week! (and some pretty darn good puns as well)
Given I live in the midst of "Duck Dynasty" land and never really cared much for ZZ Top, I can do without the bushy beard craze - decorated, glittered, or just plain.
Edible outfit? Pass. Santa Paws? Where do I get in line! ^-^ *readies fur babies*
I saw a story about the glitter beards on the news and no - just no. lol
Karen @For What It's Worth
Interesting to see all you compiled once again
Another fun post! I'm supposed to get dressed up for a party on Friday - I wonder if I have time to bake a jumper!!
If my boyfriend keeps growing his beard, I may have to glitter it for him! :)
welll that was creative, edible christmas jumper, glitter beard, heh how festive
I just saw something for glitter arm pits. I guess that is what happens when you get next to the beard? LOL
I also thought undies were the official lighting aspect of the season.
How to untangle lights my way: Buy new lights. :D
These were fun. Happy Monday!
LOL on the glittered beards! I can't believe that's a thing. >_< but I've definitely been seeing them around (though only on social media and not yet in person...thank god).
Pllllleeeeeeease tell me glitter beards isnt really a thing... lol... - http://www.domesticgeekgirl.com
I just recently read something about the glitter beards. How crazy! haha
And an edible jumper? Interesting!!
Tracy, I didn't know about the sparkly beards, the "bushy glitterati" until now. Too funny for words! I enjoyed your humorous Christmas-inspired post. Thank you for these noteworthy stories!
(P.S. The decorations do look like undies!)
That video should become a seasonal classic. The type of beard that those guys have has become very popular in the United States as of late I hope that the glitter also catches on :)
Glitter beards, edible jumpers...oh my I tried to get my son-in-law to decorate his beard for Christmas..he refused.
I so want to try the glitter beard, but I don't have a beard. Maybe I could do my hair instead, whilst I still have some.
These were good!
