Crappier but crappier

It’s a necessary evil, sewage is. We all know it’s there, but we don’t like to think about it. We certainly don’t want to see it or smell it. So what do you get when you put a very cheap homeowner with a sewage line flooding the sidewalk? You get a DIY shitty fix. Literally.

DIY: Holiday tablecloth

Too cheap to splurge on a festive table covering that you’ll use but once a year? Just buy a roll of cheap (or expensive, if that’s how you roll) holiday wrapping paper and wrap that table up tight. You could even add a bow, if you’re crazy like that.

Still, even without a bow, this actually doesn’t look so crappy. And I’m sure it’s quite satisfying to tear off the paper post-holiday celebration, or during, if you want to make a dramatic statement during a family flair up. Oooh, that sounds fun.

DIY: Planter

This plant looks surprisingly healthy, despite the fact that it’s life is burgeoning from the depths of an aluminum can. Maybe the fact that it was once an apple drink of some kind is aiding its life force. Live long and prosper, young succulent. Grow.
