I bought this vintage Chinese batik on ebay...
...which sucks and looks like an old piece of acid washed denim from the 80s. On a good day.
Shhhh...can you hear that? It's Ding Dong laughing all the way to his Bejing bank.

oh dong.
ReplyDeleteThat's hilarious! Too bad! Good joke, though.
ReplyDeleteIt's not terrible. It's kind of shabby chic. :) Go for it anyway, just rough up the base you use to match and it'll be fantastic! Besides, I can't really feel bad for you without knowing what you paid for the "old piece of acid washed denim from the '80's"... ;)
ReplyDeleteWell, I am so sorry about the antique Chinese Batik looking like denim on a good day. Ebay can be such a resource and then something happens to spoil things. I was on a good Ebay run for a while, got a bit cocky and ended up with several horrible purchases... all fakes... hate that. It is rather like a scared straight program for me.
ReplyDeleteThat pretty much sucks....can you at least get a pillow out of it or is it a total bomb?
ReplyDeleteIt looks like flattened Chinese mom jeans. I can't even make a dog bed out of it. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteI really feel for you, but this post is just so funny!
ReplyDeleteDing Dong, WFT?
Love the inspirational piece! How about napkins or pillows?

ReplyDeleteI can't even guess, but I did laugh when I read your comment!
You win some, you dim sum.
