Everyone once in a while, we’re seized by that dangerous sort of inspiration that will have us undertaking projects we are by no means prepared for. Normally, we’re saved by the practical realities (and costs) of going to the store and buying the supplies or tools needed. But that doesn’t stop everyone.
So we’ve gathered examples of some of the most creative, yet cursed DIY projects people have posted online for your viewing enjoyment. Get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your thoughts on what they were trying to accomplish in the comments section down below.
#1 Why Have I Done This
At home with a back injury, out of boredom I combined an old lava lamp with an old wall lamp. Yes I know it’s horrible, but I also kinda like it.

#4 External Hard Drive Encased In A Cement Brick
Description:
Cement brick with a USB hard drive inside. It was made by a guy I’ve never met and it has a bunch of random files and photos of people who went to a college I didn’t go to. I guess you could say it’s a bit of a time capsule. I’ve had it for years and it’s hard to see it go but it’s time…
Free to a good home but please note that it is a literal cement brick so it’s heavy! But it has a handle.
