New York lawyer-turned-chef recreates Taylor Swift albums using homemade pasta
Danny Freeman, 37, created ravioli pasta to resemble all 10 of Taylor Swift's albums. The chef and content creator told Fox News Digital that he's a big fan of the pop star. The creation video has over 6.3 million Instagram views.
It’s no surprise that Swifties across the world are getting into the holiday spirit and incorporating their favorite blonde this season.
TIME recently announced Taylor Swift as the 2023 Person of the Year — and fans of the star are supporting her in any way they can, including putting her on their Christmas trees.
Etsy has over 8,000 listings that pop up when people search for "Taylor Swift ornament" there — and many are highly creative.
Some include subtle nods to specific Swift albums, many mark 2023 as the year of the Eras Tour — and others took some serious thoughtfulness and care.
Here are a few eye-catching designs.

The ornament is a wooden wreath with the title of the song in the middle for a subtle nod to the song and the holiday season.
"'Tis the Damn Season" is one of the songs from Swift's ninth album "evermore," which tells the story of someone going home for the holidays and partaking in a fleeting relationship.
Fransisco said he wanted to create something that would make sense for all who saw it.

The Year I Saw the Eras Tour ornament
Etsy shop WhimsylittlethingsCo told Fox News Digital that its festive ornament was made for those who spent time "battling Ticketmaster" to see the most popular music tour of 2023.
"We knew people would want to commemorate their time spent battling Ticketmaster and fighting to see the hottest show of the year," the owner said.

The owner continued, "With friendship bracelet trading being so big at the concerts, it was such a fun way to showcase your favorite bracelet."
The ornament is customizable, so customers can change the "I" in "The year I saw the Eras Tour" to "we" and the year from 2023 to 2024 — if they're planning on seeing the pop star on tour next year.
The shop owners added that they felt "such joy" in making these ornaments for people to add their own friendship bracelets to, whether they've seen the three-plus hour show in person yet or not.

Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce ornament
Etsy shop owner Greg Wilson told Fox News Digital his ornament design is definitely timely.
"To celebrate the budding relationship between global pop icon Taylor Swift and the Chiefs’ all-American hero Travis Kelce, I was inspired to create a digital holiday image of the couple," he said.

Wilson said the ornament was made by engraving a photoshopped image of the couple onto maple plywood and then cutting it to create an ornament.
The ornament "symbolizes the connection between the high-spirited musician and the celebrated athlete," said Wilson, who runs the LaserCutGiftsStudio shop.
He added that in less than a month, more than half of the limited-edition ornament stock has been sold.

"All of the beads are colors that represent each album," she said.
Beles said the ornament is oversized and can be purchased on dotelldesigns.com for $39.00.

Legg told Fox News Digital that she started making these ornaments with her two daughters for their personal Christmas trees — and decided to start selling them online.
"The magic of Taylor Swift is that fans feel personally connected with her life — and the portion of her life, where she lived on Cornelia Street, seems like a particularly special part of Taylor's life," she said.
The 2019-released song shares Swift's memories of her time living on Cornelia Street in New York City — and falling in love with someone and hoping it never ends, or she would never be able to "walk Cornelia Street" again.

Legg said the ornament she made is based on the actual street sign of the New York City street — and the font is accurate.
"I felt like her fans could find it meaningful to commemorate that," she said.
The ornament is for sale on Etsy for $20.00.
