RIPTThis shirt is great! It was a gift for my mom because it’s her favorite Christmas movie of the muppets. She loves it so much she’s not waiting until December to wear it (hahaha).

This puppet christmas graphic tee stages a blue-snouted storyteller in Victorian garb holding a lantern high while a worried rat friend peeks out from behind his coat. Snowflakes drift over holly branches and the whole scene reads like a holiday card from a felt puppet theater.
The bold caption reminds every would-be stagehand to light the lamp, not the rat. It is a puppet christmas graphic tee for fans of gentle parody and cozy seasonal comfort viewing, a warm pick among holiday graphic tees.
RIPT drops new original art daily, and seasonal favorites can retire once the snow clears.

Questions about this design
A puppet-theater take on a Victorian ghost-of-Christmas tale, with a blue-snouted storyteller, a lantern, and his nervous rat sidekick. No show or character is named on the shirt.
Light the lamp, not the rat is a stagehand's cue turned punchline, a nod to the slapstick chaos of felt-puppet holiday specials.
Yes. The cozy, nerdy parody suits anyone who loves felt-cast Christmas specials, in men's, women's, and youth sizes.
Soft ring-spun cotton with a unisex fit that runs true to size, printed in the USA so the fine costume detail stays crisp through washes.
T-shirt, hoodie, sweatshirt, tank, canvas, and poster.
