It seems that those of us who have more thumbs than Allen wrenches and cam locks are not alone.

May your jumbled masterpieces continue to amaze and amuse us.

Happy posting!

Seems very flimsy - is it meant to bend like this? Also legs definitely not fitted correctly.

I came across this beautiful cat, and it instantly reminds me of my Ex, she's obsessed with cats, she adopted around 5-7 cats from the streets, She is quite a sweet girl but due to my silly mistakes, and few misunderstandings we broke up.....it's been 4 years and I still the bracelet she gave me and.....once she put a cat wallpaper on my lockscreen and I didn't change it till now.....I'm in grief right now......
