Christmas Decorations in CSS
Why not adding some small decorative Christmas inspired CSS art? My favorite is definitely the Disney-like Christmas tree, which reasonably requires a good amount of JavaScript. If you don't want to use JavaScript, you have a quite similar mesmerizing CSS only Christmas tree animation in another link.

- Two in one, animated candy cane and reindeer
- Animated CSS only Christmas tree
- Christmas lights to place on top of website
- Retro styled pixel art Christmas tree
