    One could be a snowman - the fatter one;) and the other can wear striped pj's and slippers and be the little boy off the snowman .

    I think Christmas trees is a great idea! That'd be really funny and so simple to do - and it'd suit both body shapes.
    Other ideas: fairies, reindeer, father & Mary christmas, two of the three kings, mary & joseph, shepherds, polar bears, christmas cracker - each being half of a pulled cracker, christmas turkey & a sausage wrapped in bacon, wrapped presents - in big wrapped boxes, baubles, angels, a pair of skis, mince pies...
    Just £10,852.28p to go...

    :D

    Trust that little voice in your head that says "Wouldn't it be interesting if...";
    And then do it.
