When the term DIY (do it yourself) comes into question, many of us have different associations with it. Some people are avid fans of it and even like to repurpose old items with creative twists, while for some people... the term quite literally means a disaster in every way possible.
Let's be real, even those who are rather skilled at making things themselves have failed quite a few times before they got it right. However, sometimes we not only lack the patience and skills to execute the plan, but also the literal sense to know when something is not going to come out the way we want it to. Some ideas are just meant to never be executed for our own piece of mind, unless we don't mind nightmares, that is.
Now that all of that is out of the way, we suggest you check out some of the DIY fails submitted by the members of the r/DiWHY subreddit community. And unless you want to intensify your nightmares for tonight or just have a good laugh, make sure to check out previous posts here, here, and here.

This Subreddit's Title Says It All
I don't think god had anything to do with those unholy creations.
Load More Replies...This is viscerally upsetting. I would donate money toward the destruction of these abominations so no one ever needs to see them again. I think many of you know I try very hard not to be overly judgmental about even the things I disagree with, but my principles cannot stand up to this affront to all that is decent. $@&#*! these things. 🤬
dunno. it might be a toss up between these and the transparent platform boots with goldfish in them.
While I appreciate the "moo shu gai pan" sort of pun you did there, I *think* those are horse hooves.

Or use the empty spam can. All that carving...they were doing too much.

Biblically Accurate Furby
More like New Testament style, as the description of the multi-eye seraphs is actually from Revelations 4, 7-8 ("and they were covered with eyes, in front and in back").
Load More Replies...The title already says biblical, so you don't need to reiterate with fabled.
Load More Replies...it's angels, just so you know! I know, I get them mixed up all the time, too
Load More Replies...In a previous article, Bored Panda had reached out to IAMmojo who is the moderator of the r/DiWHY subreddit. We wanted to know how moderation works when it comes to such a big page in general.
"It's not too difficult in general, but on certain days there are influxes of [crap]posts and reposts which can get crazy. Even with rules, these will continue to happen. It's why I use Automoderator to handle rejections of any new accounts or low karma accounts as a baseline."
I'm No Electrician, But I Think I've Solved The Mystery Of Why Changing The Lightbulbs Didn't Work
Should be illegal. I once rented a flat; there was black mould in one of the kitchen cupboards, and when I pointed this out, the estate agent said, "Just don't use that cupboard." Also, the cooker plug was attached to a loose piece of wood that was just leant against a wall....

Your Grand Kids With Cherish These… Or Bury Them In The Backyard
Real babies are so hard to come by these days I might have to stock up on a few of these instead. I hope GLASHNOK will be understanding.
Load More Replies...Successful scary babies! AS a fellow crocheter I'm impressed!! That takes some skill! Scary skill.
I mean... if it's for a good cause... I'll take 100. Can you deliver them before the end of October?
If you were serious, that would make you a very kind soul! :)
Load More Replies...Its supposed to be a baby with Downs syndrome but I can see what you meant and we are both going to hell
Load More Replies...Six hundred would be enough to heat up my house in winter. Burn baby, burn.
Ouch
If it didn't work, that would add insult to injury. Imagine pissing away £250,000 for the sake of a lamp. Geeeeez.
Load More Replies...this is similar to the fisherman in madagascar (i think) who found a piece of the MH370 like 5 years ago. He didn't know what it was so he brought it home. His wife used it as an ironing board
The moderator also shared one of the most common recipes for a DIY (or should we say DIYWHY) disaster. Can you take a guess on what it is? We are sure, the answer might not be that surprising but it is funny nonetheless.
"If you ask the sub, they will surely mention the hot glue gun as the main ingredient. I think most posts in general have a humor element to it in common." They told Bored Panda.
All Mail Is Nuked For 10 Seconds To Destroy Any Tracking Or Listening Devices Put There By A Vague Yet Menacing Government Agency
Great, now I have that “ding fries are done, ding fries are done, ding fries are done” Christmas song stuck in my head

Surely the Martians have many better things to do?
Load More Replies...Maybe they get meals on wheels and it's always cold by the time it's delivered to them?
Socks For Human Beings
That the first thing I saw! Why buy socks with chipped nail polish to cover your own feet with chipped nail polish?
Load More Replies...They’re awful but she’s not even attempting to put her toes in them correctly
I think those stockings were intended as a joke since the concept of stockings with manicured nails was popularized in Japan.
Load More Replies...Hideous yes. But aren't there supposed to be toes in those? I'm more afraid of the feet supposedly inside them on right pic
DIY And 5 Minute Crafts In A Nutshell
you know what else is quick, easy and free? Punching yourself repeatedly in the face.
Is that easy? Also if you do it repeatedly for long enough not that quick. Free is probably right though.
Load More Replies...If you don't live near a river this is actually neither quick nor easy
You are hopefully immune to toxins spewed by any organisms your socks will gather.
If the sock is thick enough and you put some if the river bottom in the sock too you may find gold once the water is sifted out. You just need a fine mesh to put the mud on and a bowl or plate to catch anything.
so you can carry the little bit of the river with you. also to kill everyone in the room when you take your smelly shoes off
With all of that being said, the moderator was sure to mention that failing in something should not be taken as something upsetting but rather as an opportunity to improve. "Keep working on your craft! What you make today maybe be the next big thing tomorrow! Not everyone is a skilled artisan, we can only try our best."
I Wouldn't Tell Anyone I Won The Lottery... But There Would Be Hints
We been spending most our lives, livin' in an Amish paradise. I churned butter once or twice, livin' in an Amish paradise.
That's Cody from the WhistlinDiesel channel on YouTube. It's just one of his projects - The Hellcat on Horse & Buggy Wheels. He's not the sharpest tool in the box but I actually find him mildly entertaining...
Not the sharpest tool in the box is a bit of an understatement. He literally flew a helicopter indoors.
Load More Replies...I have a comment, but I am afraid to post it. On one hand Amish people won't read it, but on the other hand, I still don't want to offend them and their religion. Here's the comment: I don't understand that kind of facial hair. Why grow a beard and then shave it to right where the front of your face becomes your chin? It looks like you don't know how to shave properly. I have no frame of reference, being female and not having facial hair, but I still don't get it. I also don't think it looks good, even if I did understand it, but that feels more rude than just saying I don't understand it. Sorry to any Amish people reading this (or rather former Amish people, since Amish people don't generally use much technology). I do not mean to offend!
Keeps your chin warm is the best reason I can think of.
Load More Replies...Flood Preparations????
They'll use it to hold onto when the water gets above chin height, obvs :D
Load More Replies...When they pay you in advance to construct a wooden fence but don't specify the night
Ok, we are safe as long as the water goes up the street, doesn't pass the mailbox, nor rises over a foot. Pray the wood damn holds....its our only defense. Tots and prayers everyone, tots nd prayers.
Repurposed Jeans :(
Men, you know how, when you're at the garden centre, and you can't help but to smack that bag of compost on your way past... I think that's about to get whole lot more interesting.
And remember, no matter what anyone says, there is still hope, whether you've had an interior design flop firsthand or you've simply witnessed too many hilarious DIY fails to try. Give it a go, who knows maybe your idea won't turn out as bad as it did for these fellow redditors.

No, the best time to see them is in the dead of night, with no moon or light, with sunglasses on, and your eyes closed.

Looks like they put a lot of effort and work into this. Makes me think that they probably did an engine swap too. So. Weird and at the same time, too well done to not appreciate haha.
Can we stop downvoting people for a difference of opinion, please? Downvotes can get you banned on BP.
There is always a few a-holes. It stinks but we gotta deal with it I guess.

Load More Replies...My Mom Bought A New House And This Is What The Previous Owners Did To The Pool!
They filled in a big one and put a smaller one in with a bad fill job around it
Load More Replies...Mildly weird but if she can afford a house with a pool room bigger than some grocery stores I reckon she can afford to pay a local to clean it up and change it to what she likes. The pool kind of looks like an afterthought given size of pool to size of room.
It looks the the original pool was a lot bigger and for some odd reason they've emptied it and put a smaller, uglier pool inside it! 😅 maybe a problem with the lining or leaks in the original 🤔
Load More Replies...The person paying the water/heating bill, is my guess.
Load More Replies...They didn't like a freedom pool only liked rectangular pools with faux sandish beach?
I could work with that. Fill in the empty space with dirt and plant stuff.
Yeah I think it has potential to look pretty cool if it had been done properly!

"And When The Sun Hit The Porch Just Right, The Rocks Sing"
Every time I see this I wonder if the poster knows the meaning of the word "whimsical"
The only valid use for this sort of thing is to sneak it into someone’s rockery without telling them.
Might work to scare burglars, door to door salespeople, mormons etc. too. Scares the inhabitants too so that's the downside
Load More Replies...Is Duct Tape Cheaper Than Paint?
I agree as well but it will only look like this until the duct tape starts to get ratty.
Load More Replies...What’s the term for this? “Bad idea, Perfect execution?” Anyways, I don’t hate it
To be honest, this will probably last longer than cheap paint. Paint is temporary, Duct tape is forever
As someone who can't afford to replace her glasses, I would like to say that duct tape is not forever.

My Friend Went To Look At An Apartment Today And This Was The "Shower"
My Computer I Decided To Build In A Jerry Can
Looks very cool. I hope the cooling is sufficient. That would be a pain in the a** to cool I think.
It's all well and good until you run out of gas in the middle of a game

Load More Replies...Cannot believe how many years those things were in (though this appears a particularly wide model). Followed up with soft, cushioned vinyl. Remember those? Yeah also not planning on them coming back.
Oh yes, the cushioned vinyl toilet seat! Nothing like sitting down on a warm toilet seat that deflates when you sit on it. My aunt had one of these in her house when I was a kid and it felt gross to use every single time.

Why not cut a hole in the door and put the flap over? Seems like it takes more work for a "reversible"option
What in the hell? I imagine it doesn't get cold or there are no break in's where they live.
i kinda like it... i have french glass doors, used to be to the exterior, now leads to the basement addition. But the cats will be in the new basement without a good way of entering. Can't cut hole in glass door, and want it shut most of the time to keep dog out... i might just suggest this to my husband to build! :)

The buttons are places actually strategically, to help find keys without looking.
If you need a button to help you find the space bar you have other problems.
Heh, I have an 11 year old brother. They are incomprehensible creatures…
I remember when my brother was 11- he cut slits in his bedroom carpet to put his plastic knives in! He was much older when he drew a face on a watermelon skin and put it on his head though!
Load More Replies...It may not be so random. With the exception of the number keypad, all of those other keys are non-text function keys. Maybe the button helps keep fingers from wandering off while typing.
I don't think I'd be this clever if I had a keyboard at 11. It was a long time ago.
Friend Of Mine Told Me To Post This Here. My Glorious 0.5$ Drawing Glove
As a lefty that is brilliant, I have always smeared ink. It doesn't have to be pretty to be useful
I think you need to turn it inside out, then I it'll look better because the sewing is inside
where can i buy this? when aver i use purple or blue it looks like i bruised the side of my hand
So, instead of using a cheap pair of cotton gloves and cutting of the thumb, index and middle fingers of it and using a bit of Fray Check (liquid seam sealant that prevents fabric from fraying and secures thread ends) on the raw edge of the glove to stop it from fraying, OP used a sock and had to do more work to make the sock a drawing glove? Why? You can buy thicker cotton gloves at dollar stores and alter them, to suit your needs. Plus, they won't smell like feet (if the socks aren't clean).

*Ignoring all the possible comments about balls being uncomfortable to sit on* I once borrowed a car with one of those. I have long hair. 9/10 do not recommend. I estimate six weeks of regular use would have transplanted my coif to the mat piecemeal. Ouch!

This Monstrosity! Yes, That Is One Vehicle
It’s ugly , but I can see the utility in it. The back is the sleeper part of a semi(tractor trailer) cab. The rest of the bus part is likely modified on the inside (a table, chair, kitchenette, etc)
the bus part has replaced the original truck cab, the bus engine would be behind the rear wheels
Load More Replies...I don't see the point of chopping off a perfectly good body just to replace it with a mismatching one unless it was collission damaged or rusted/oxidized beyond repair.
Or technical people could just be allowed to have fun. I'd love to take An F800 cab/chassis and splice a regular pickup bed to be proportional to it.
Load More Replies...I Made A Thing
Why? Just Why?
I love this though! I get why a lot of people would find it scary to be reminded of your mortality, but I think there's something very beautiful about this way of embracing death as part of life and integrating it into your own life. And there's something very comforting about the idea of being buried in something that was part of your living room, in a piece of furniture that you are very familiar with and that contains some of your beautiful memories because you used to keep some of your favorite books in it or beautiful flowers that you liked to look at everyday, and that was part of the room in which beautiful moments of your life happened. The idea of being buried in some random coffin that just came out of a warehouse and you have no attachment to at all, just seems so much colder.

Not A Movie Set! I Have Been So Fascinated By This House For Years And They Finally Took Down The Facade The Day After I Got A Good Picture! Had To Share!
They just kept downsizing until there was nothing of the original house left? 🤔
They do this in Washington DC. When they tear down a building to be rebuilt, the facades are kept up, so every once in a while, you'll notice this facade with no building behind it. It adds to the feeling that when you are in DC you're actually in a really boring movie set. They do eventually rebuild the building though, with the original facade in front.
A Mini Fridge Where Only Two Drinks Fit In

If it's a newer bank card (this is for the UK where this card is from) it will only have old card numbers on it no account number or sort code, so if she's done this because she's got a new card- the numbers on this won't work. If it's an old style one then it will have her account number and sort code which (again unless she's shut the account down fully) will still work but you could only set up direct debits etc not instant buying with account number and sort code. That all said, they look horrendous

I like this. Nice present for someone retiring from the armed forces as a way to use their suit without it just hanging in a wardrobe.
This doesn’t belong on the list with pasta ornaments , this is actually quite awesome
It's very well executed. I would't want to sit there, though. Looks like I'm either sitting on COL Jessep's lap or he's standing right behind me - decapitated. Either thought is deeply uncomfortabe. Not to mention I have long hair: the buttons on the uniform would give me terrible tangles and rip out strands by the painful dozens.

Because Grass Between Your Toes Feels Amazing
I had this grass at my old school. It stuck to your socks, leggings, and shirts. I still have a lot on my socks and I moved schools 2 years ago.
That's not too bad actually. With normal rubber soles on a hot day the tops get slippery with sweat. Artificial grass will wick away the sweat while staying cool (air circulation) and non-slip.

Whose broad stripes and bright stars Through the perilous fight O'er the ramparts we watch'd Were so gallantly streaming? And the shotgun’s red glare The bombs bursting in air Gave proof through the night That our flag was still there O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free And the home of the brave?

I love it. Nothing beats the feeling of sitting on the beach or walking across the beach with bare feet. Of course this is not nearly as much fun as the actual beach, but it's a nice solution if the beach is too far away to visit often, and you can sit here every day. And it's fun for kids to play in. I think it would make me so very happy to have this.
