We’re sure that laughing at other people’s craft misfortunes will come back to haunt us next time we pick up the glitter and glue. That’s the way karma works. But we still can’t resist having a chuckle at these funny fails that brave crafters have shared with the world - we’ve all been there!
1. Dr Dolittle
"There goes two and a half hours of my life I'm never getting back. Thought it may be cute to make a bunny. This is the level of disaster involved. The verdict: never again"
2. Letter laughs
"When you spend the last two hours tracing letters only to realise you did it on the wrong side"
3. Spills ahoy
"My entire bottle of glue spilled in my glue box and made this nice sculpture for me. Thanks glue!"
4. Washi problems
"That ONE time when washi tape REALLY sticks. To your floor"
5. Ink woes
"The moment when your paper towels look better than the stuff you attempted to make"
6. Glitter glue
"My glitter stuck to the glued edges. Lesson learned: be patient"
7. Pom-pom fail
"Why does it never turn out right? These things are really hard. They don't even come with directions which didn't help!"
8. Waxy worry
"Hand stamping doesn't always go smoothly. Some days the wax doesn't want to play..."
9. Melty melty
"In heat gun vs scissors, round one goes to the heat gun. Didn't look where I put it down and my poor abused scissors paid the price"
10. Heart attack
"This was supposed to be a cute little Valentine's box"
11. Drink up
"I ran out of corks, which, if you know us, is an unbelievable thing!"
