whitehouse_cake.jpgAre the neighbor’s Christmas lights visible from the moon? Does the disheveled mitt-waving mechanical Santa & Mrs. Claus at the tire shop give you the creeps?

It’s time to take an inventory of the craziest holiday decorations. Send us your pictures to pics@reuters.com and we’ll post the best of them on reuters.com. Be sure to send your name, contact information (in case we have questions) and a description of the photo (what, where and when) with your email.

And this is call to everyone: Americans aren’t the only ones to lose their perspective on holiday decor… Aside from our all-time favorite, the underwater nativity scene in Italy, take a look at these pictures:
