Sometimes, traditional holiday decorations just don’t make the cut. Meet the Johnsons, a creative couple from sunny California who have transformed their home into a whimsical “Pun-derland” filled with clever holiday puns, showcasing their humorous take on festive decor. Their video tour, filmed by John and hosted by Sarah, quickly gained traction on social media, amassing an impressive 20 million views on Facebook.
“It’s the most pun-derful time of the year!” Sarah kicks off the tour, showcasing a dazzling array of pun-inspired decorations. One standout includes spice ornaments, each with a tiny sign that reads “hi!”—a clever play on holiday greetings that took a moment to sink in.
Another hilarious highlight features a picture of a famous actor hanging over a collection of candy canes, while three garden tools are lined up with Sarah playfully saying, “Hoe, hoe, hoe,” as she gestures to each one. The simplicity of these jokes is what makes them so brilliant and enjoyable.
The Johnsons’ decor also features a life-sized cardboard cutout of a beloved action star hiding behind the Christmas tree, aptly titled “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree.” For bonus points, they even included a knight with his finger to his lips, representing “Silent Knight.” Who wouldn’t want to have a life-size cutout of a movie star in their home during the holidays?
John shared with us that they brainstormed a total of ten puns, and Sarah helped him sift through the options, even deciding against a picture of another actor atop some pine cones to represent pine cones. “Our friends and family have really enjoyed the reactions we’ve received,” John explained. “It was such a blast decorating while neighbors watched and guessed the new additions. One of my favorite moments was overhearing a neighbor comment, ‘Hmmm… must be a Millennial thing.’”
Feeling inspired yet? If your typical holiday ornaments are starting to look a bit lackluster, you’re certainly not alone. Maybe this season, it’s time to embrace your inner punster and create your own Winter Punderland. Or, if you’re short on time, simply pour yourself a glass of red wine and enjoy the festivities like Sarah did—after all, it is the season to celebrate!
