Ha ha, thanks OP. I clicked on the links and now guess what I see in my adverts...

ButchyRestingFace · 23/04/2018 20:23

I'd have to beat my budgie off with a stick if he copped a load of either of those.

Giraffeski · 23/04/2018 20:25

These remind me of the sadly now closed website Regretsy if anyone knows what I mean!

Idontdowindows · 23/04/2018 20:25

I loved Regretsy!

sweeneytoddsrazor · 23/04/2018 20:26

Well these will now appear in my adverts but better than the half a dress somebody put a link up to the other day.

I have also now seen a new business venture. If I give my cats a boring old lampshade to play with for 10 minutes I can then sell it at an inflated price. Win win.

ArcheryAnnie · 23/04/2018 20:26

The second one just look like the lower bit has been plopped on, like someone didn't know where to put their twisted-up used hankie and there was a hook there, so...

The first one had a working title of Drying Smalls.

HippityHoppityWho · 23/04/2018 20:26

As someone who has never looked at the website before, this isn't a great intro Grin

NormHonal · 23/04/2018 20:27

“Mingey mirror” Grin genius!

Yes I saw those and my response was “wtf?!”.

caperberries · 23/04/2018 20:28

I think my 10 year old would go for these... they look like something Sara's beauty corner would cobble together from recycled rope

PinkCalluna · 23/04/2018 20:29

Goodness those are dreadful.

Committees full of people looked at those and approved them. The mind boggles...

TheWizardofWas · 23/04/2018 20:32

Dougal, please...but yes, just like him. Sooooo bad,

DozyDoates · 23/04/2018 20:33

They both look like someone my SIL has had a go at arts and crafts, been told (by someone more polite then me) "yeah they look awesome, v trendy!" And are now trying to sell them on their Facebook page. WTF were they thinking, and the dust!

timewarpted · 23/04/2018 20:37

Blimey. They all like something off a particularly heinous Pinterest ‘upcycling’ ideas page. I really like Anthropologie even though it’s way over my budget but these are grim.

Sunflowersforever · 23/04/2018 20:41

@KnobZombie7

That lampshade? Looks like someone has wiped their fanjo and stuck the paper on the shade for recycling

I usually really like Anthropology. Those have me n stitches though. 😹

Jon66 · 23/04/2018 20:44

Oh dear . . ..

Neolara · 23/04/2018 20:50

They are hilarious! They look like a pre-schooler's attempts at drawing a person.

Orangecake123 · 23/04/2018 20:51

They both look awful.

FreeMantle · 23/04/2018 20:55

Talking about pre schoolers efforts...
Who would these suit? I can't imagine anyone thinking flapy wide fish feet are a good look

ChikiTIKI · 23/04/2018 20:55

First thoughts for me...

First one: land fill
Second one: reflective voodoo doll

I can't help but think of our poor environment when I see rubbish like this, destined for the tip :(

73kittycat73 · 23/04/2018 20:57

The first one reminds me of Stewie Griffin.

beargrass · 23/04/2018 20:58

I had to wonder just how bad a mirror could be. Obviously, you might not like a style or whatever but...SERIOUSLY?! How did they make it from mind to production to shop? Shock

caliroll · 23/04/2018 20:58

Print

I'll do an original for you for £50 and still turn a profit!

Who buys this?

maras2 · 23/04/2018 20:58

Oval lamp looks like Stewie (Family Guy)
You really wouldn't want that in your bedroom. Shock

Mummyoflittledragon · 23/04/2018 20:59

The mirrors look like they’ve been dressed by 4 yos do resemble peg dolls.
