If you're the kind of person who starts blaring Christmas music in the middle of September and can't wait until you can put away the pumpkins and start hanging up strings of lights and inflatable lawn decor, then we might've just found your new wreath for Christmas 2019. Say hello to the Buddy the Elf Christmas wreath, inspired by the 2003 Will Ferrell hit Elf! It's being sold by the Etsy shop Custom Design Press, and it sure does have that special … something.
The customized holiday wreath features the literal face of Will Ferrell (ahem, I mean Buddy), surrounded by a plethora of colorful bows.
Expertly styled to look like Buddy's curly mop of hair and delightful elf costume, the bows on this Buddy The Elf Inspired Wreath ($75) create a festive and one-of-a-kind decoration that'll give carolers, holiday guests, and unsuspecting mail carriers a good hearty laugh when they show up to your front door. (Because let's be honest, it's pretty hilarious.)
News of the wreath has been making the rounds on social media for the last few days, where people have been squeeing with delight over it.
"Terrifying, but I love it omg," tweeted one person.
"OMG I need this!" tweeted another.
On Facebook, people tagged their friends in posts by the boatloads, wondering aloud whether or not they could take a stab at re-creating their own.
"Where was this last year when our Christmas decor theme was Elf?!?!?!" lamented one person.
If you want an original, though, you better act fast -- people are literally lining up for them, and this small Etsy shop can barely keep up!
A message on the seller's page noted that due to a very high demand for the product, the shop is taking preorders.
"Please understand that I will be working on orders as they come in," the shop owner wrote. "It can take up to 2-4 weeks to get it out to you."
The handmade creation will also cost you — each one is $75 plus shipping. But I think we can all agree that this one-of-a-kind holiday item is worth every penny. (Especially just to see the look on visitors' faces when they show up at your door.)
