Concerning The Equilibrium Of My Checkbook.
Grammy screwed up in arts & crafts at the nursing home and now it’s worth $560?
“If you price it, they will pay…”
No, obviously the decimal point got misplaced. And it doesn’t belong after the 6, either.

Wait, where do you put the nipples?

Dude, wait…I could totally do that! And it would be crap, which is apparently what it is supposed to be–so it would be totally awesome!
ooh…ooh…ooh, I could outsource, to my daughter. She is in kindergarten so she is learning all sorts of new stuff in art class. I think all I need to do is give her some materials and she can churn out something fabulous. Oh, wait…would be it too fabulous to actually work? Cause this crap is cool, right? If its not as crappy, is it not as cool?
Aw hell…its hard work to produce crap!

Leaving aside the esthetic concerns, how is this in any way “a functional piece of clothing”??

This looks like the ball of tangled up string in my grandma’s junk drawer! I’m off to visit grandma! Spending spree will soon follow!

I’m pretty sure my cat did something similar to a ball of yarn once… Except it actually covered the nipples..

Now don’t ask me how I know this, but I happen to know macrame takes a long time. How come that at any point during this long process the person making this did not think ‘WTF, this is a disaster?’ It’s awful!

Ok. So, maybe the pricetag is about $500 too high, but the piece is pretty damned cool. I’d rock it.

Actually this is one of the least objectionable things I’ve seen here, okay maybe a little spendy… but I’ve seen similar conceptual departures from “jewelry” in Metalsmith magazine.
It’s the title that gets me – Concerning the Equilibrium of Cyan and Emerald???? Really?? My guess is the artist thinks that self-important title qualifies it to fetch an extra $150 or so…

The colors are not cyan and emerald. Is that nitpicking? Not for $560 it’s not.

Okay – this isn’t that bad but her description is not doing her any favors. “One-off” sounds a bit like “mess-up” – I believe the correct artsy term is “one of a kind”. And seriously, we don’t need to know you’ve been holding on to this since last year. TMI! And a top? How about we call it a necklace. There, now – work on those changes and you may just sell it!

I’m pretty sure I could make a better garment if I just went and shit on a ball of yarn.

If anyone is considering purchasing this, you need to be flat chested like the model or the beautiful equisite look will be all shot to hell.

@ freshie – In the UK, “one-off” means one-of-a-kind. Not sure where the seller resides but she spelled colour with a u so she lives anywhere but the States.
BTW, anyone notice her shop’s empty now?. . .

It could only get better if it was sold as a sports bra.

If only this were a Cthulhu tribute necklace…tentacles, different shades of green, could’ve totally worked. Not at that price, of course, but someone might well pay $50 for it.

BTW, Mr. Ward, I make tentacles that go around the neck and yeah, they’re much cheaper. But then, I’m not a mad genius who’s gazed upon the otherworldly horror that this seller is smoking.

She’s a good knotter, but with a lousy sense of direction.
“Functional” clothing? This is a wardrobe MALfunction waiting to happen.
