The $100 Question: What's the Oddest Thing You've Ever Created?

I make weird, quirky, bizarre dolls out of polymer clay, paint, fabric & found objects. They are incredibly odd, but everyone loves them & its a great way for me to express myself.

Play pranks on people. Jep, I'm that guy.
Probably the funniest thing I ever made was an alarm in the bathroom that would be set about 30 seconds after someone sat on the toilet.

I thought it was funny, but my wife made me get rid of it, lol.

I'm not exactly a crafter, but I think the oddest (and also the best) thing I've ever created was a giant cat bed. If you're curious, you can check out the pictures of my crafty feat ( http://www.wicproject.com/pondering/craf-tastic-ca... ).

Long ago I was into macrame. I tried to make a flower pot. Really ugly. Thanks for the contest.

It's got to be the necklace I made out of cacti. garrettsambo@aol.com

The weirdest thing I remember creating was animals out of homemade dough.

Oddest? I tried making little purses out of denim pockets once and sold them at garage sales. Well, I tried. No one was even close to interested!

I'm not a crafter but the oddest thing I ever created was a clay sculpture that was supposed to be a pot but just ended up looking like an abstract art piece

I am an avid crafter, but nothing I have made is all that weird. I did try drying some flowers once and all they did was smell up my utility room. I have never tried it since.

I made a fishtank with fish made out of pistachios when I was a kid.

When my class was studying ancient egypt, we had to make a project to present to the class with a report. I chose mummification and made a clay tomb, then proceeded to mummify a store bought chicken carcass.....which sat in the class room for a week...smelling heavily of cologne.

I'm not a crafter

I guess the oddest thing I've ever created was a Cat costume for my daughter for a school play...well needless to say I completely forgot about it till right before she needed it so I threw it together and glued on a ton of cotton balls! As you can imagine it kind of caught on everything and fell apart when she was onstage..oh ya, and she got really sweaty lol!

Once, on a slow day I decided I wanted to knit something but I didn't have any yarn around.

so I knit a scarf made of embroidery thread, every color that came in the box. It wasn't pretty, to say the least..

I created a pencil box in the 7th grade. I can't figure out why..but I did it.

I made a picture collage coffee table and covered it with this glass like resin stuff, but it ended up just looking kind of different it would have been great for a teenager.

Every time I've tried to make something with clay, it's beyond odd. :(

zombie cupcakes were the oddest thing i've ever made

I knit and crochet pretty well so I thought macrame would be easy. Well, it wasn't and my hanger was lopsided. If I had actually tried to put the pot in I think it would have slid out the side.

I don't remember really creating anything odd...guess im just not a very creative person...LOL.

I've created a lot of things, I can't think of any I'd call odd except maybe some of my stories or poems

I'm not a crafter but I do like draw some wacky looking pictures

I love painting and cross-stitch. The oddest thing I've made I would have to say I had a request for a painted bird on a stick.

Nothing :(

As a kid I used to save my gum to make gum sculptures. So gross!

I am not crafty at all. I tried to make a cat scratch post. Let's just say it didn't work!

i have created an ashtray for my husband. that's about it.

I taxidermied a mouse in some class when I was a kid. I have no idea how that came about. I remember doing some of it and I know we had the mouse for years. Very odd!

I made a voodoo doll complete with pins. ;)

a pinata

Craftiness is not my forte. Even as far back as elementary school, I was pretty bad at art. My weirdest creation was a vase for my mom made of playdoh. It was hot when I made it, and it melted somewhat into a lump.

A drawing print that had all odd irregular jagged edges on it

I took parts from several old lamps (brass & glass) and created a new lamp..sold for $50

When I was a kid, I'd spend hours painstakingly fashioning elaborate Barbie wedding gowns out of Kleenex. To the outside observer, it was a hideous mess, but I thought my creations were quite beautiful. :)

nothing,I'm not a creator by nature

When I was in middle school, our art class did a section on pop art (Andy Warhol's soup cans and that sort of thing). We made pillows, and I chose to recreate my most treasured possession, the clock radio I had gotten for Christmas from my grandparents. It was digital, but not in the sense of today's digital clock radios. This one had numbers that flipped over. Some of you older folks will remember those. LOL! For the time, I put 3:30, which was the time Gilligan's Island came on every afternoon. Many years later, the felt numbers I had glued on the pillow fell off, but I think it still outlasted the real clock radio.

a cake that looked like a flower.

I once crocheted a round rug for my mother-in-law and she was kind enough to leave it showing in her house. It was awful---did not lay right and flipped up on one side. The color choice had to be me during Pumpkin season.

I used to do a lot of crafting, but just don't have time for it any more. The oddest/cutest thing I ever made was little fluffy Easter checks inside real egg shells.

a friend taught me how to make a few balloon animals. I came up with my own way to make a frog. It never quite worked out right and tried for an entire summer to get it right. Never happened.

I tried to make handmade soaps a while back-very embarassing as they were mis-shapen and just weird-looking

I wanted to help my friends child make a globe, it came out looking like a demented soccer ball

I am not a very good cook, but I try. Some of my concoctions looked too unappetizing to eat! I'll keep trying! Thanks! senekers@comcast.net

LOL, the oddest thing I ever created was a finger made of the melted wax from my candles! I kept it in a potted plant!

I am a crafter. I guess the strangest thing I ever "made" was a foil ball in grade school. I guess modern art?

The kids tried to make it a real ball and a few good kicks and candy everywhere.

I'm not much of a crafter, but in high school I made a paper mache crayon.

A shoe rack disguiser! It kind of looks funny but it does the job.

my dad was a rubberband salesmen. so with lots of rubbrbands in the house I made a bubberband ball the size of a hard ball, it bounced really well !

I am making my own purse, its not that crazy but I am crosstitching a ukrainian design to go on the front
