When good crafts go to the DOGS...it's REGRETSY TIME.
Have you heard of Regretsy? It's a fantastic BLOG/SITE that highlights some of the MOST HORRID selections of crafty merchandise you might never otherwise run across from ETSY.COM, a very popular commercial site for artist, craftspeople and resellers. Etsy brings crafters and their wares to a unified marketplace where like-minded people can browse online and buy them, like a MEGA renegade craft fair 24-7.
Before I move on to comment on my VERSION of Regretsy, First things first...
#1 I LOVE people making stuff, so KUDOS to anyone for making stuff.
#2 Finding hideous stuff on Etsy was harder than I thought. Maybe I'm just a happy optimist.
#3 If any of this is yours, please don't take it personal...I probably LOVED your other stuff for $ale, but you gotta ADMIT, it takes a special person to LIKE THESE items...I HOPE you sell them!
Here's some of the words i searched to try to get AWFUL regresty worthy dog stuff DOGS + FLEECE Dogs + COLORFUL DOGS + WOW DOGS + RAINBOWS DOGS + LITLLE +FLUFFY +CUTE I might as well have searched DOGS + JAPANESE...let me try that now.NOPE! Japanese stuff is CUTE & GLITTERY!

You could pretty much sell me ANYTHING with a chihuahua on it...but NO not this. This is like a Badgerhuahua. It reminds me of Caddyshack and also the toothbrush commercial in the movie Grease.

Apparently, that's FABRIC....I thought it was a melted bottle cap of some sort...ALSO the description tells me that's a GOLDEN RETRIEVER puppy in the center. "Are you certain?' ---"of course-Look at the ears!"

*Last minute addition. I saw this BLOG post come through this AM on the Pawcurious site...it's just the sort of day for outing hideous pet stuff.
