Are you sick of the same old Christmas tree ornaments? Shiny balls and icicles get old, but unique Christmas ornaments stay fresh year after year. In this list, we have compiled unique, funny handmade, and one-of-a-kind ornaments for your tree.
I don’t know about you, but I cannot think of anything more unique than a unicorn wearing lederhosen as a Christmas ornament. When I saw this I knew I had to add it to this list because I have not ever seen anything like it before!
The white unicorn in this ornament is wearing a sparkly pink and purple lederhosen, with knee high athletic socks and glittering purple tennis shoes.

This is a super funny ornament that will add a very unique touch to your tree. If unicorns are not your style, you can also buy a Santaur or Santa Centaur from the same company.
These giant googly eyes put new meaning to the classic Christmas song “He sees you when you’re sleeping, he knows when you’re awake…” But instead of being creepy, they are just plain funny! You can put these eyes on your tree facing out into the room, of you can put the tree next to a window and face the eyes out the window. Either way, these googly eyes will definitely make your tree the most unique tree on the block!
Sometimes the most unique ornaments are simple representations of your hobbies or interests that are unique to you. If you are a math enthusiast, or know someone who is, this Pi symbol ornament would be a perfect and very unique addition to your tree. It has a classic look in polished silver, but the shape is very different than what you would usually see on a tree.
Unique trees start with unique lights. Instead of the same old Christmas tree lights this year, why not shake it up with something exotic and fun? These 10 ft Moroccan lights are show stoppers with metal globes that have intricate designs cut out of them. They come in either warm white or bright white, and are solar powered for use indoors or outdoors. The rechargeable battery charges all day and automatically turns on the lights at dusk so you do not have to worry about turning these lights on and off every day.
This glass ball may look like a regular Christmas ornament, but it has a special secret. The shreds of paper inside of this handmade ornament are actually from an antique bible. This ornament is great for anyone who wants to display their faith in a unique way over the holidays. The ball measures 2.62 inches at the widest. It was created using a book that was on its way to the dump or otherwise unable to be used, so you can feel good knowing that no books were harmed in the making of these ornaments, in fact they were saved!

But when you look a bit closer, it is a lot more unique. This ornament is in the shape of an old school popcorn machine, and is made out of a high quality blown glass. It is super cute, stylish and detailed. The ornament measures 3.25 inches so it is not so large that it will overpower your tree. Instead, it will add a nice unique touch to your holiday decor.
