Sometimes you get a gift from the Universe. Even if you are a horrible person who writes a crafts fail blog (not to be confused with the genius FailBlog).

Just go look at this shop. It is chock full of gifts for the person who loves wacky, weird crafts. Behold:

Clothes Pin Top $165

Ping Pong Ball Necklace $145

Recycled Balloon Hat $65

Recycled Glove Vest $215

It is almost too much beauty in one spot. My heart is full. I suggest you buy them all and wear them together.

First, go look at this:

A holiday crafts project!

Here’s my favorite part:

And can you tell what they’re made of? Styrofoam and plastic spoons!

I could. I could tell right away.

My other favorite part is that you need to snap the bottom of each plastic spoon off without breaking the spoon or slicing off a body part. Good luck with that. I know I would end up in the ER. Your mileage may vary.

I’m kind of sorry to make fun of this, because the person seems so good-hearted and earnest. And I can relate – I’ve been there. You create something that you spend A LOT of time on, so much time that you fall in love with it, maybe a bit TOO much in love…and it is still just a styro ball with spoons stuck in it.
Spray-painted gold. (Did I ever tell you about my mom’s gold spray paint phase? OMG everything. Sticks, canisters, pine cones, baskets…Because anything looks Klassy if it is gold! “Oh, wow, Mom, I thought you actually bought SOLID GOLD bookends!”)

So. I’m not trying to be mean. Ok, a little mean. But mostly what I’m trying to do is to save you from having your relatives make fun of your spoon ball behind your back for years to come. Trust me on this one.

No joke, there are about a million “Redneck Wineglasses” on Etsy. Who knew?

But I must say that this is one of the most awesome of them all – hand-detailing, screw top AND a lime green feather boa detail. I mean, whoa. You don’t see quality like that every day.

I had a bit of an argument with LaurieWrites about this one. She said it was not a true Craftastrophe – that it was actually more pathetic and sad than funny.

I had to override her on this one. I mean, it isn’t the best Craftastrophe ever, but my inner 12-year-old boy just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to use the phrase “Felt Balls.”

Just a little something to make the couch look extra cozy.

I don’t know why this one makes me laugh so hard. Tupac was an artist, a visionary – but one thing I DON’T think he could have ever envisioned was seeing his face larger-than-life on a throw pillow.
