I’ve been pondering posting a link to Etsy lately. For those of you who don’t know, Etsy is an online marketplace where anyone can sell their crafts and wares. And there is some incredible stuff on there…like Trixie Delicious’ Vandalized Vintage plates. Love her 7 deadly sin plates and the plate below is perfect for telling the man outside your window to back off whilst serving him a waffle.
Speaking of stalkers, I am in L-O-V-E with elementclaystudios ceramic tiles. I want them all, but especially the 3 below.
But for every amazing piece of art there is a veritable cornucopia of crap. From crochet sweaters for kleenex boxes to seashell art that looks as if it was created by the offspring of Corky and an undersexed suburban housewife. Enter Regretsy.com.
Regretsy is a hilarious complilation of the worst of Etsy. Their tagline, “Handmade? It looks like you made it with your feet.” is genius. The whole site is addictive and laugh out loud funny. A personal favorite, the dead things section, featuring the fish/squirrel taxidermy, pet humiliation and the homage to Edward and Bella here.
But nothing can top the “Meerkat Manger”. I’ve pasted the text from the site below the picture so you can fully appreciate the hilarity.
Mongoose 2:15-20
When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see the meerkats, which the Lord has told us about on Animal Planet.”
So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who were living in a large underground network with multiple entrances. When they saw the child, they scent-marked the subordinates of the group to express their authority, and this was followed by much grooming and licking of faces. - Regretsy.com
Make sure to visit often, www.regretsy.com. That’s how I am going to find all my Quanza gifts this year.
