15 Unique Christmas Tree Toppers To Make Your Tree Stand Out

Christmas is one the way! I’m sure there are already some of you there are getting the decorations down from the attic. But maybe you want to change things up this year? Here are 15 Unique Christmas tree Toppers To Make Your Tree Stand Out.

1. IT’S-A CHRISTMAS, MARIO!

For the gamers out there, this is one tree topper they’ll be sure to love. At one point, every person that plays video games becomes familiar with the massive titan in the industry that’s Mario. His red cap, his mustache, and of course the Power Star, are all famous symbols that gamers recognize almost instantly. The best part is, starts like this you can make yourself, if you’ve got the right supplies. Look online to find them. This is one of the best unique Christmas tree toppers!

2. THAT’S NO STAR…

The first ‘Star Wars’ unique Christmas Tree Topper to appear on this list, who wouldn’t want a Death Star keeping order in the galaxy that is your living room? The right one can light up and even has sound effects. The perfect tactic to scare the kiddies away from trying to sneak in the middle of the night to open their presents early.

3. A DAPPER TREE TOPPER

Looks like Frosty lost his hat! Ever wanted to add a little more class to your Christmas tree? Well, now you can! The great thing about this piece is that it’s so lightweight, you should’ve no problem fixing it to any tree.

4. NAUTICAL FESTIVITIES

A unique Christmas tree topper for those who live by the sea or the water. With its rustic, old-fashioned look, hand-crafted look, this is a tree topper particularly suited for those with an aquatic lifestyle. Available for less than $30 from Wayfair.

5. IT’S SANTA SNOOPY, CHARLIE BROWN!

A lot of people have grown up reading and watching Charlie Brown and his day-to-day adventures. Snoopy is arguable more recognizable than any other Peanut. So, what way to show off being a fan than having him and Woodstock lighting up your tree? Look at that grin, he enjoys being there.

6. THE DARK SIDE OF CHRISTMAS

The Dark Lord of the Sith has deigned to grace your Christmas tree this holiday season. For those who’ve decided to throw their lot in with Darth Vader, this tree-topper, complete with light-up lightsaber, is a perfect declaration for any rebel-scum to be found in the area. This item is available from Amazon for $37.

7. THE LIGHT SIDE OF CHRISTMAS

On the flip side, you could follow the path of the Jedi and follow the Light Side of the Force by placing Yoda atop your tree. Available from Amazon for just under $22, this tree topper, with a light-up lightsaber just like Vader, will be an excellent guardian against the Dark Side. This is one of our favorite unique Christmas tree toppers!

8. DON’T. BLINK.

This one is meant for the Doctor Who fans out there. The Weeping Angels are monsters that are almost as iconic as the famous Daleks. As the aliens take the form of stone statues when they’re being looked at, this tree topper will be sure to send a small shiver down any Whovian’s back when he looks at it. And always remember: DON’T. BLINK.

9. THE ABOMINABLE TREE TOPPER

I may not speak for everyone, but the Rankin Bass stop-motion Christmas specials were always a tradition when I was younger, as they were for many other people. Odds are, using this unique Christmas tree topper, you’ll have a few guests who smile and laugh as they recognize Bumble having some fun atop the tree. Just make sure he sees a good dentist beforehand.

10. WHOOPS. WRONG HOLIDAY.

Really, how could I talk about unique Christmas tree toppers and not include the Pumpkin King? If anyone has a unique way to celebrate Christmas, it’s him. ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ is an iconic film during both Halloween and Christmas. And even if you haven’t seen it, you’ve certainly seen all the merchandise and memorabilia. Have this topper, and everyone will know who it is. It’s also a great excuse to watch a fantastic movie.

11. CHRISTMAS ON THE HIGH SEAS

Would you believe this Flying Dutchman tree topper was hand-crafted? That’s right. If a life raft won’t do it for you, this ship, which can easily be attached to the tree, will certainly give a nautical feel to the festive season. This item is available for $40 from Wayfair, but it won’t be for long.

12. PRETTY SURE HE’S SUPPOSED TO GO DOWN THE CHIMNEY

Looks like Santa had a rough night. A comedic spin on the perception of Santa going down the chimney, this unique Christmas tree topper will definitely get a laugh out of any young one’s who see it.  This item is available for $13 from craftoulet.

13. IT’S FROSTY’S TURN NOW

Frosty the Snowman is almost as popular as Santa Claus himself. Having him as a tree topper may not be as unique as having a Jedi master or an alien statue, but he’s one that isn’t seen often at the top of a Christmas Tree, and I think that it’s high time that changed.

14. THE OLD ONES ENJOY CHRISTMAS TOO, I GUESS.

Even fans of H. P. Lovecraft enjoy the holidays. Having Cthulhu stand watch over your tree may be an unconventional choice for a tree topper, but it’s sure to be one that everyone will remember. If they don’t ask why you have a green octopus on your tree instead.

15. THE 8TH WONDER OF THE WORLD

This is more of a DIY tree topper, but this one was just so incredible, I had to include it. Santa in an airplane dogfight with King Kong…in a Santa hat. Find a figure of a gorilla, Santa in an airplane, some wire, a few ties to make sure King Kong stays upright, and you’re good to go. This is one of the best unique Christmas tree toppers!

I’m sure there are even more unique Christmas tree toppers out there. Have any you’d recommend? Any good stories to tell? Let us know below!
