I know this doesn't strictly come into the category of bad taste crafting but couldn't resist puting it in as the funniest vintage ad I've seen this week. Many thanks to Firexbrat on Flickr for this one.
This blog is devoted to those craft items that we've all giggled at - the crocheted crinoline lady toilet roll holder at the local craft fair; the naff decoupaged greetings cards with 10 layers of teddy bears or roses; and mostly anything that features clowns. I take my inspiration from the wonderful blogs http://whatnottocrochet.wordpress.com/ (did you realise you could discreetly hide your tampons in a handy crocheted tampon cozy?); http://youknitwhat.blogspot.com/ (sadly defunct) but http://whatnottoknit.wordpress.com/ is doing a sterling job in making sure knitting hell stays with us. I hope to widen the net and encompass all the awfulness that is crap crafting and welcome submissions but have made a start.
