The theme for IllustrationFriday this week is "Excess," which is, of course, all too appropriate for this time of year.
For the holiday season, the average American will spend, on average:
-$607.01 on gifts
-$47.14 on decorations
-$30.77 on Christmas cards (not including postage)
-$19.11 on flowers (83% will be poinsettias)
-$91.83 on food
In addition, 31 million Christmas trees will be bought, and 1.8 billion candy canes will be made.
And then, as par for the course, we'll probably throw away 90% of it.
Skip the stores, support human-level economy and buy handmade. I, of course, am biased toward etsy.

Yes Americans are quite excessive, for the most part. My post makes a similar communication. I like the rainbow vomit; very effective.
