Grateful Dead holiday decor. Amazon

The holiday season is fast approaching, which means it’s time to start thinking about decking your halls.
While you could go the classic garland and holly route, we’d suggest going the music fanatic route this season with Grateful Dead holiday decor available on Amazon now. The best part? The holiday offerings are on sale. The band’s official Amazon storefront includes two holiday pieces, although there are a bunch to choose from. Our picks? A nutcracker in the shape of a dancing bear, the band’s unofficial mascot, for $50.71 and a decorative glass ornament for $30.20.
The bear nutcracker stands at 10 inches and depicts the band’s dancing bear in blue wearing a festive holiday costume. An ornament is clutched in the bear’s hand. If you didn’t know, the dancing bear is meant to represent the band’s sound engineer and counterculture figure, Owsley “Bear” Stanley, who was nicknamed “bear” for his hairy chest.

Kurt Adler Wooden 10″ Grateful Dead™ Bear Nutcracker
$50.71 $53.25 5% off
A Grateful Dead-themed nutcracker.
The cheerful and psychedelic dancing bear motif was first featured on the back cover of the band’s 1973 live album titled History of the Grateful Dead, Volume One (Bear’s Choice) and was created by artist Bob Thomas, paying homage to Stanley’s nickname. The bear motif has become synonymous with Grateful Dead, following the band even after the group disbanded in 1995. In short, not only is this nutcracker aesthetically pleasing, it also helps you snack on nuts with ease.
If you’re looking to decorate your tree with a little music flair, the aforementioned Grateful Dead glass ornament is for you. The item is made of glass and features the iconic skull and rose imagery accompanied by glittering accents and vibrant hues of blue, red and silver. This ornament was released for the band’s 60th anniversary in August, and makes a great keepsake for the Grateful Dead fan in your life. It’s also just a beautiful ornament, what with all the sparkling aspects that catch the light with every move.

Both the nutcracker and ornament were created in collaboration with Kurt S. Adler, a company that specializes in creating holiday goods. The brand’s official Amazon storefront also includes a whole host of Grateful Dead merch for fans and followers of the brand to choose from, including string lights, ornaments and even stockings cast in rainbow hues and full of holiday flare. While we are all for traditional Christmas decor, these pieces are a great way to change it up if you’re tired of the same old tinsel and red and green color scheme.
