I am watching some show on the Style network called, get this…
[color=darkblue]CRAFT CORNER DEATHMATCH[/color]
This has GOT to be one of the FUNNIEST things I have ever seen…kinda like Iron Chef, but with crafts!
This guy (more like a WWF commentator) is the emmcee, and tries to rile the competitors and audience, while a chick that resembles the Bride of Frankenstein wheels out a cart covered with a big trash bag. The craft supplies are unveiled at the “bell” and they have a certain amount of time to build whatever “thing” with those supplies.
They had to make a watch band out of nothing but hot glue and jewels, and now they are making a wedding cake out of miscellaneous Hostess products.
During the last round, the remaining player goes up against THE CRAFT LADY OF STEEL!
Saw the ads, it looks like a hoot! Do they do the crafting challenge in the dark in every episode? I told DH that I’m a perfect contestant since I’m really good at crafting on the fly, but he pointed out that having me hurry with scissors, knives, hot glue guns, etc. is NOT a good idea. I will have to watch from the sidelines, for I do not want to acquire a knickname such as “Squints” or “Digit” or “Patch”.
Did anyone watch the show Wickedly Perfect when it was on? I watched the first 2 or 3 episodes, and got SO SICK of those people…i didn’t think either of them were wicked or perfect. Sheesh. Its a little disturbing to me that crafting is being comemrcialized as some kind of contest. I do what I do because I like to do it, not because it’s cool, trendy, on TV, or makes me better than someone.
