15 #HolidayFails Because We’ve All Been There
It’s a seriously crafty time of the year, which means that some things are almost guaranteed to go wrong. But sometimes those holiday fails are just as funny and memorable as that perfectly staged holiday card photo or creative Christmas tree. It’s the little things, right? These ‘Grammers are showing us the true spirit of the holidays, one LOL at a time.

12. Snow Globe Collision: Maybe some bubble wrap and a secure box will prevent these kinds of accidents from happening next year. (via @anisedog1)

14. Satan Claus: Reason #193857 why it’s important to proofread. (via @brandon.berner)
15. Microwave Mishap: Recreating a little holiday magic in the microwave never hurt anyone, but sometimes the magic can cook a little *too* long. (via @annanicki23)
