I just saw this on a FB selling page. I've no idea what it is, or why anyone would want one, but it is handmade after all!

Share your festive tat!

Christmas wrapping paper wrapped shoe boxes?
Family bottles? I don't understand why they went through all the effort getting the string neat then just to roughly cut and stick shit fabric letters onto it.

You know, I'm all for people making crafts.

However! The shitty '6 Twixes and a Dairy Milk in ribbons and cellophane' for £30 rip-offs.... Could I ask that if you see somebody selling that kind of utter rubbish on your FB newsfeed, that you send them adequate and visibly shaming comments, or at the very least a PM. I would hate to think of vulnerable people thinking that they are buying something nice for someone there. Plus, as others have pointed out, the goods (and the Disney, Batman, etc. goods) are not theirs to sell. It's offensive on so many levels.

No price, but apparently you need to get in quick, these are selling fast.

Am so tempted to change my username to 'TooTooCarMoon'!

TobleroneBoo · 17/11/2016 11:09

Do it jess and you will always have a place in my heart!

Also, surely the point of having a puzzell puzzle is to do it yourself? Hmm not to buy it ready assembled and framed!

TheCompanyOfCats · 17/11/2016 11:11

Do it JingleJess!

Velvetdarkness · 17/11/2016 11:15

Bippity yes I saw those but thought it might be cruel to keep posting her stuff.
Fine if you do it though!

I was looking for this thread the other day, as I spotted these delights.
Instead of a tree how about a maniquin version. How on earth are you going to store it after Xmas?
Tracky is the only word I have for the glass bottles.

Oh and this tickled me.

TheCompanyOfCats · 17/11/2016 12:13

Bobo and you can have the bottles glittered if requested! I'll take three!

Dismembered foot hun.

TooTooCarMoon · 17/11/2016 12:32

Since you asked so nicely....

I'm practising my facial expression if I ever open the dismembered foot. Surprised, delighted, joyous shocked, repulsed, wonders if I actually know the giver at all

DontTouchTheMoustache · 17/11/2016 13:10

tootoo please keep that username forevermore. Only we will know the magical inspiration behind it 😂

TooTooCarMoon · 17/11/2016 13:23

The little space is bugging the fuck out of me, though - but I'm too lazy to correct it!

Flingmoo · 17/11/2016 13:45

Bobo I suppose a bog standard Christmas tree is simply not feminine enough for the modern woman. Everything in a woman's home must be gendered, pink/purple and have feminine curves. Even Christmas trees.

passmethewineplease · 17/11/2016 14:12

Not selling but tat all the same..imagine receiving this as a gift! Shock
