We love taking advantage of the good nature of others, so we requested some insane stuff just to see if someone would make it for us.
Item 1: Bea Arthur Cross-Stitch
Price: $80
Did They Make It?: Sort of...
Price: $80
Did They Make It?: Sort of...
Don't read on if you don't like seeing DIRTY WORDS and CARTOON GENITALIA and VERY VERY DIRTY WORDS LIE AHEAD. You've been warned!
We sent a headshot of Bea Arthur:
The end result was so lust-worthy, that I couldn't walk 10 feet without somebody asking if they could keep it after today's show.
Breathtaking!
Item 2: The George Carlin (7 Dirty Words) Scarf
Price: $80
Did They Make It?: You Betcha!
Price: $80
Did They Make It?: You Betcha!
Comedian George Carlin did a hilarious stand-up routine (way back when) about the Seven Dirty Words that you're not allowed to say on television. I wanted all those words on a scarf!
I sent this profane image:
and asked them to knit us a scarf with all the words in order, one after the other, written along the length of it. I wanted it to be so profane that it would melt the snow around me. I can't wait until the weather gets cold again.
Our scarf (I'll post pictures of the uncensored version after the show!):
Item 3: The Anatomically Correct Felt Ron Jeremy Doll
Price: $60
Did They Make It?: Hell Yes!
Price: $60
Did They Make It?: Hell Yes!
We sent this image that Kevin Pereira drew:
Waaay Accurate!
then, we waited for the bids to roll in. $60 later, we've got ourselves a Ron Jeremy doll with posable penis (a hidden wire inside does all the magic)! The person who made Ron suggested that the penis be poseable and that she make the it much BIGGER than the way Kevin drew it.
Back!
For enough money, good-natured people will make you almost anything. If you're going to request something risque from Etsy Alchemy, make sure you make your request clean or they'll pull your listing. I censored my requests and then sent the 'full monty' once the bid was accepted. Your mileage may vary.
I'd also like to add that all three girls that made these items for us could not have been sweeter. Big thanks to Anja, Carmen and Dora for being good sports and for making us some of the coolest stuff we've ever seen.
The result:
Front
Front
Back!
What did we learn?

I LOVED the bit! And I remember all your listings going up in Alchemy. I wish you'd asked for something in a format I made so I could've bid on one of the projects!
For the record, there are a lot of artists on Etsy who don't shy away from raunchy work. Search for "portrait pendant" or even "erotic tile" and you'll see some of the best.

They should send something in once a week and make it a segment This was freakin hilarious
