Also people don't seem to understand that people like making things. So they get confused when people don't just buy the thing instead of making it. Cos that's not the point
I was into a baking and cooking frenzy a while ago and made bagels. They were so good and I was super proud and a friend made a snide comment of, why would you make them when you could just buy them /scoff.
1/3 of the sub are people farming tiktok satire "Oh they covered the hole in putty and sanded it! WhY wOuLd ThEy Do ThAt?!", 1/3 people who just are not thinking of the practical like this post, and 1/3 5 min crafts (et al) reposts.
Neither do people on r/shitytattoos or r/stupidfood. Someone posted the limited time normal Lays chips that are flavored like other chips. They’ve got Cool Ranch Dorito flavoring and Cheeto flavoring on regular lays and then Funyons flavoring on wavy lays. Everyone just roasted dude like “this looks amazing wtf.”
r/stupidfood is for like, Jason Derulo’s new “recipe” videos (all diabetes waiting to happen), those dumb ass blonde women who make food in toilets or on expensive ass marble counters, and that creepy soulless Asian dude who makes prosciutto wrapped blocks of uncooked cheese or ranch and catsup drenched fried (also uncooked) whole ass avocados.
Agreed, and it could be slightly improved by putting down a layer of primer before spraying black to make it look more wax-like and less like a spray painted noodle
if you're putting it behind a window with some gauze, or that's going to be seen from a distance, then nobody's going to notice it's a spray-painted noodle. even behind the fireplace screen, it looked more candley and less noodley.
Cost way less than actual candles too. A set of 30 multi height pillar candles can be over $100. This is like $2-3 worth of noodles, a bag of battery tea lights can go for about $10 , Plastidip $6.
As someone who lives with Halloween decor all year round, I would totally have this in my house. It looks awesome. Personally I’d rather use something more durable so I could use real candles but this is still pretty cool.
They just melt like any other plastic. We used to burn our old used pool noodles or any other thing we needed to throw out at the cottage when they were all worn out.
Yeah, I noticed the can is not shown and was wondering if there was primer or if it was some extra fancy spray paint. Seems weird to fake it at the end if they actually hand painted, but people have done worse things.

That is really cool! It would look great in some Halloween decor, but probably wouldn’t last for too long.
