About this deal

Four Miffy decorations, two large and two smaller, but all designed to be loved by anyone in your house who loves Miffy. We have at least one person who fits that bill in our home. This is actually a choice of three, as you can get both Mario and Yoshi too. But I have decided to go with the controller.

It’s another at the Baltic store, sized about 10cm tall and of course, dressed in purple. If you are a fan, this design from Cody Foster is an obvious one to buy. Kurt Adler used to do different decorations each year featuring the Fab Four, but the label hasn’t done any for a while now. However, you can still buy past decorations online if you hunt around. This is a mini replica of the kind of record player you might expect to see in a bedroom in the 1960s. Think Dansette or a similar brand. For something so small, there really are some lovely details on this. Plenty of colours too. Of course, we have flagged up the Primal Scream Screamadelica decoration above, but you can choose from The Pixies and Teenager Fanclub through to Neu!, Lou Reed and Bowie. These handmade designs are great as a gift for a music lover too. Bob Ross. Yes, the man with the big hair and big canvases, known for his wonderful The Joy Of Painting show in the 1980s. It’s currently being repeated on BBC4 if you want to get acquainted or reacquainted with it.The same maker did some slightly different ones last year. But this year’s set is bigger and for me, better too. Last year I went for a robot. But this year’s sci-fi entry is this wonderful spaceship at John Lewis. Yes, I love Peanuts, so of course, I went looking for some decorations featuring the Charles Schulz characters. Yes, a little bit kitsch, but I don’t see that as a bad thing when it comes to retro Christmas tree decorations. Here is another icon. There’s no shortage of Bowie ornaments and decorations this year. So with that in mind, I’m featuring two.

So that’s your words of warning. Buy now or be disappointed. With that out of the way, here is the full list to hopefully inspire you to do something a little different this festive season… The baubles are individually painted so slight discrepancies may occur. Each one is presented in a gift box. If like me, you love a bit of Lego, then you might want some retro Christmas tree decorations made out of the stuff. Best of all, they come as a set of three, which puts them into the better value category of this rundown. Each one is unique and hand-finished and with the kind of kitsch appeal that will create a talking point. Sadly, the Adidas City Series Christmas decorations were a short-lived thing, So we’ll have to settle for Converse instead.

A more generic offering, this is a glass bauble that’s perfect for the retro gamer in your life. Or you if you happen to be a fan of arcade machines. Note that there are also some wonderful Beatles decorations by Christopher Radko too. On the downside, they aren’t easy to find in the UK (which isn’t an issue if you are reading this in the US) and they are quite pricey.

Well, I featured a Mini, so it seems right that the other leading light of retro cars is featured too. I don’t think it gets more retro than this one and if you love the 1980s/1990s and home taping, this is the ornament for you. I could probably do without the writing on it, but the design itself is to be commended. A detailed recreation of a vintage TV in miniature and in glass. Choose from eight different guitars and colours, with each guitar cut and printed onto a hardboard with a gloss finish. Personalised too, so you can have a name printed onto it. A set of five glass decorations, which apparently represent the treats the designer’s Nanny and Grandad use to give him as a child. The Battenberg one is a dream.

The Londoner

that was a year, eh? Some people are already calling for people to put up the decorations, call it Christmas and move onto 2021. And there's probably no better way to feel better about Christmas 2020 than with a new and exclusive David Bowie Bauble. And this year, it's a beaut. Those clever designers at My World Publishing have again taken inspiration from Bowie's Ziggy Stardust phase. But this year they've returned to turning heads with Ziggy Stardust now accepting his close up! With the iconic bright red hair and gold astral sphere on his forehead from his make up designer Pierre Laroche no less. Looking as ever iconic with his 'snow white tan', we're very excited about our fourth Bowie bauble and it makes a perfect companion piece for the three Bowie's of Christmas past.
