When You See It...

At first glance, this actually looks like quite an impressive craft project. It looks like it could have been bought from the store, and it looks pretty cool on the wall like that. But when you really, really look at it you will soon realize that all is not as it seems! That's because this wall art is actually made from old popsicle sticks that have been painted and stuck together.

Although the overall effect is pretty neat, the whole thing looks a bit messy from afar. But if this was made by a child for their parents, then it's a cute present!

A Big Nope

We wish we could give you answers, but we're just as clueless as you are. We don't know what animal or creature this is supposed to be, we don't know why it's so overweight, we don't know why it only has green hands and feet, and we have absolutely no idea why it seems to be vomiting blood. Let's just put this monstrosity down to a bad day in the pottery studio.

We don't know why anyone would craft such a thing, but this just proves that sometimes DIY craft projects can go so wrong. And in this case, it's become a nightmare.

A Wine Rack?

Most people live by the rule that if it's not broken, there's no need to fix it. But it seems as though some crafty individuals like to bypass that nugget of information and attempt to "fix" things they have in their lives. And this person obviously wanted to upgrade their bra. And while they could have just stopped at the pink frills and the diamonds, they decided to go that extra mile.

In the heat of their DIY adventures, they opted to grab all of the wine corks in their kitchen and stick them to the outside of the bra. No, we're not sure why, either.

That Price, Though

We get it; art is subjective. And in the art world, you have no idea how much something is going to sell for. A beautiful landscape painting can sell for just $50, while a banana peel stuck to a white background could sell for $2 million. So, we don't blame this painter for adding a few extra zeros to the price of their dog painting. You've got to at least try, right?

But while we appreciate their confidence, we have a feeling that this particular piece of artwork probably wouldn't sell for that much. Especially not on Facebook Marketplace, of all places.

The Liquor Nativity Scene

One of the reasons why so many people love DIY arts and crafts is that the opportunities are endless. When they get an idea in their heads, they can then bring that idea to life and see how people respond to it. But we have a feeling that this idea probably got a pretty frosty reception from others, especially as this person was making religion, arts and crafts, and alcoholism collide.

Yes, that really is the nativity scene made from old liquor bottles! We do have to appreciate the attention to detail, though, and we especially love Mary's robes - which look to be bubble wrap.

Customization Is Key

The sneaker game is huge. People will pay hundreds or even thousands of dollars for rare or unique sneakers, which is why so many people are trying to use their professional arts and crafts skills to their advantage. But we have a feeling that this pair of custom Air Force Ones haven't been customized by a professional. It looks like a toddler has been let loose in the Sharpie drawer.

It seems as though this DIY-er didn't have much faith in their own designs, either. They're selling them for just £25 - which is less than the sneakers themselves.

"Deconstructed" Art

Nowadays, it's pretty easy to wander into a fancy restaurant and find a "deconstructed" food item on the menu. We've been taught that food items are more expensive when they're deconstructed, which works pretty well in the arts and craft community. In fact, this person decided to simply smash a bottle of alcohol, stick it to a frame, and sell it for £40! And we bet they found the bottle from a neighbor's recycling.

While we appreciate the "do it yourself" nature of this product, what we don't understand is why someone would pay for someone else to do this when they could do it themselves at home.
