Worst compliment ever
#11
I made my niece a cradle. It's the 8th one I've made and the 6th one of this design so I thought I had it down pretty good. Her comment to her husband was, "Honey, come look at the cradle. It looks like it was store bought."

Well, you could include an obvious flaw to negate comments like that.

Nice work on the cradle!

Nah. I had a girl in a bar tell me one time that she thought my salt and pepper hair was sexy. I thought that was the worst compliment ever.

Very nice cradle btw.
