Facebook Christmas handmade tat

[rainbowunicorn22]

does not look like anyone has started this yet this year. Yes its the thread for FB tat those awful things people are selling for a fortune that are handmade. anyone seen anything yet, previous years people have put on some great buys!

Well, if people are that sensitive, they shouldn't try and sell their tat on Facebook!
Or label it with my 4yo wants to boost their pocket money!

It gets a bit tiresome, though, if somebody makes a really witty comment and then you get 30 people quoting it in the thread just with a laugh emoji.

Much easier if the poster gets the clear message personally that lots of people appreciated their humour. I use the heart emoji too for this now.

Oh go and have a swig of Sherry or a glass of Eggnog and lighten up!

Due diligence? Are you joking? And if they do, so what? Do you think the veil will be lifted from their eyes and they'll realise that their treasure is in fact 💩? You think they aren't the teeny tiniest bit aware of that? They are flogging crap for cash. You are being very patronising to them - as well as to posters on here. Shot in the dark, but which one is yours?

If a family member put together and tried to flog any of the simply dreadful examples on this thread, believe me I would tell them (and vice versa).

There was a mum at our school who used to sell an absolute ton of her homemade stuff every school fair. Some bits were cute but mostly really basic shit cut out of felt etc. The worst is where she would buy really ordinary toiletries (eg Dove, L'Oreal etc) and wrap them in cellophane with a ribbon and people would buy them for twice the price they cost.

Also, different people like different things.

There may well be people on this thread thinking "Ooh, now I actually really like that!" and going to find the seller's page to buy one as a direct result!

I'm on another regular thread and that's what we've agreed to use instead of 😂

Those prickly cats would have sold many times over on here!

First time I’ve come across this gem of a thread. Hilarious. I’ve just had a look on our local FB for any howlers but nothing at the moment, which is disappointing. People do love a bit of tat don’t they. Keep ‘em coming x

I’m cracking up 🤣🤣🤣

To be fair, that's only what a lot of the manufacturers do themselves: add a bit of brightly-coloured cardboard and sell something dull and functional for twice as much as a 'gift idea'.

Same with Easter eggs.

Did he use an upturned Quality Street tin as a base? That must be one of the old massive 'vintage' metal ones going on how long he's been hawking it for, and quite valuable by now.

These are 'only' £5.50 - rather special, I think...

Eeew. They all look like they’ve got a face full of boils

It’s been viewed 993 times in the last 24 hours

They all look totally fed up to me

That’ll be because of the boils

Yes, the faces really aren't the strongest part, are they?!

And as a result, eBay will auto-generate a message to him saying "People want this!"

Even though the distinct lack of sales might beg to differ!

None of the photographs on this thread depicts anything that could accurately be described as really nice. And if people want extra money, why don't they do something useful to earn it?

I like these!

True, as I really like the bycicle wheels! I love the flowers and repurpose of the wheels rather than them going to landfill.

Brilliant!
Bring back the laugh emoji! 🤭

There's a farm near me that sells these in the run up to Christmas - they are popular.
