My personal favorite this year is the snowman family in festive wear. See, because it tries really hard not to be tacky, by putting the snowmen in muted red and green, so it doesn't seem all tacky and garish.
But it misses. Because the things are still heinous. First, they're not actually shaped like snowmen, so any cute nostalgia is denied. Second, they have a shimmery finish over their rosy cheeks. Third, they have rosy cheeks! They are snowmen, people. They don't have blood. They cannot have rosy cheeks.
They are just such faux-crafty, kitschy, putrescent garbage that they make my skin crawl.

Tacky? Not even a little bit.
