Glitter Gone to the Dogs

2672374236_031be0be5a

If you can't tell this wonderful dog (or is it a cat? deer?) is first COVERED in glitter... Second... ummm FLOWERS for EYES?  WHAA???  I really don't see in any world where flowers used for eyes is a good idea.  OK, I take that back, the rose parade is allowed.  Lastly, we must address the "collar"  A piece of plastic plant as the collar?  Plus the green of the collar completely clashes with the rest of the craft!  Enjoy the horror!

Rock a bye baby



Nothing says "I love babies" more than punching a metal rod through their bellies and attaching them to chains, letting them swing all day long from the ears. Did I mention that they are also naked and upside down? There's just something that I don't like about these earrings, but maybe you already have the perfect outfit for these.

Our Trip to the Beach

shell-box

What self respecting craft blog would be complete without the shell box?  I will admit that as a child I LOVED things like this.  I also loved collecting every single shell on the beach though.  (I now feel bad for my parents for the rocks/shells I used to bring home... seriously what are you going to do with all of those things?)  Really though, as an adult where could this possibly go in your house?  What decor would match this work of art?  I'd be afraid of poking myself anytime I picked it up.  Quick someone call a doctor, cause the beach just threw up all over a perfectly fine box.

Shark around your neck


I imagine that this woman gets many comments on her choice of jewelry, but I don't think that they are compliments. It's wrong for so many reasons. First, the shark is from a Lego set. Yeah, Legos. I don't normally browse through the toy section to find pieces for jewelry. Secondly, that's a plastic Snickers bars. Granted the craft would be much uglier if the candy were real, but why wear plastic candy, especially one with such a large label? Thirdly, those two horrible reasons are combined into one craft! And I have other questions ... why would a shark, plastic or otherwise, eat a candy bar? Why is the candy bar nearly as big as the shark? Just how low does her shirt need to be to showcase this cool necklace? And does that make this necklace more sexy?

Another Science Experiment

il_fullxfull.17311198

When I was in high school I refused to do any of the cutting and what not during biology.  Not that I was "against" the whole thing or anything like that, I just don't do well with medical type stuff.  I can't watch someone get a shot, I can't hear about someone's surgery (I don't know how I survived a c-section).  Anyway, back to the craft at hand... PLEASE tell me this was a science project?  Or perhaps a gift for that professor friend of yours that has everything.  Either way, someone's got a sick sense of style!

For cold weather


When the weather starts to turn a little cold, I pull out my, er, fingerless gloves. No, wait, my arm warmers. Or are these, um, imaginary muscles? Nevertheless, I suggest you get some too. Nothing says stylin' like short sleeves and these puffy knitted things. Keep your fingers exposed for more important things. Like blogging.

WHAT is she Wearing?

festive-centerpiece

So this particular craft caught my attention because well... have you SEEN it?  There are so many things wrong with this... we'll have to start at the top.  What kind of "hat" is that?  It doesn't look like anything anyone would wear ever.  Then the strange ribbon that wraps around not only the hat but the neck, waist AND hips.  She looks like she's being burned at the stake by a variety of flowers with her hands tied behind her back.  Totally how I want to celebrate 4th of July... or Bastille Day... you decide.
