You spend hours on a project only to have it turn out looking like your five-year-old made it. It’s not really salvageable, but after all that time you spent on it and all of the supplies you used, you really don’t want to throw it in the trash. On the other hand, you don’t want to lay claim to your no-so-handiwork. You could always display it anyway, and if anyone asks…
Humm, you could always say the dog ate it…
Aw this doesn’t work for me, no kids, not even nieces/nephews!
