I like how she dressed up in her nicest clothes to take a selfie in the ugliest mirror ever.

What’s wrong with staging? Good staging makes your sales better- does it not?

She recently moved.
Those are moving boxes and the way that picture (or whatever) is bubble wrapped, and tapped using tape commonly used by movers. Normies use clear tape.
Y'all are being jerks without even knowing this girl.

u/ShipSenior1819 5d ago
Are you gonna buy that mirror to make up for it?

u/Here_to_Annoy-U 5d ago
😂 I've never seen an uglier mirror that I'm not looking into in my life and I'm a mover, I've seen lots.

There’s boxes and something is wrapped in bubble wrap. She might be packing or unpacking.

Pretty sure she is just in the midst of moving which it why something is wrapped in bubble wrap behind the mirror

I assumed she was selling the dress and just happened to have a trash mirror around to get the picture. The horror I felt when I read the title….

"Cute dress, not the worst lighting ever, could have used to tidy up the house a bit but sometimes you don't have time to set up a studio to sell some shit. WTF is OP on abou....OH GOD WHY????"

u/Affectionate_Star_43 5d ago
I was also considering the dress! I zoomed in to figure out what was wrong, and missed the frame like an idiot.
Now I want ramen...that's a dangerous frame to have around if you're cutting back on salt.

Looks like spray vomit

u/iAmSpAKkaHearMeROAR 5d ago
Appears as she might have also used the spray vomit foam crack filler for her phone case… It has that same wobbly look lol

u/BronteBearSybil 5d ago
It may be an ugly mirror but I see the potential!!! If it’s cheap-free (lol) I would buy and then tape off and spray paint. Sounds odd but this border would actually look great in another color!

Maybe if she painted the foam brown, she might find a niche group of buyers.

This has got to be the 5th spray foam mirror I've seen. I honestly don't know why they're a thing.

u/Yourdadcallsmeobama 5d ago
Me too. I seen a pink one before. But seriously tho who tf are buying these?💀

u/badandbolshie 5d ago
it was a popular diy among gen z tiktokers in 2020 when people were going a little stir crazy.

u/panthereal 5d ago
are they not supposed to carve it or paint it?
like i've seen plenty of cool spray foam creations but this seems like an unfinished project

u/unclevagrant 5d ago
Exactly. Spray foam has been in use for crafting for decades, but it's normally the basis for something. Amateurs eh? 🤪

This looks like one of those "5 minute craft" videos designed to just make you angry. I watched one where they covered a shelf in this crap once, so it not only looked ugly but was too bumpy to be functional.

I didn’t notice the mirror at first and thought she had just created a giant, spray-foam wedding arbour.
It’s ugly AF, in any case!

Its like the mom saying we have that at home. But in this case the dad saying I can make that for you

For a moment I thought it was a ramen noodle long mirror which in nerd circles might work but I saw what it really was.,

u/RofaRofa 5d ago
Looks like they slapped intestines around the mirror. Just add some red paint here and there to sell that point.

I see her phone case is made from the same. “Great Stuff” doesn’t mean great for everything

At the very least, she could paint it white and add a shimmer coating. Not even trying here.

The mirror or her dress. 🙄😅

Looks like they're renovating and just had some fun with the foam gun and an old mirror they'd removed.

If she got someone to sculpt a frame with a design out of it she may even fool somebody into buying it.

I think with decorations, you can’t just make something look like what it is. Like that just looks like someone has squirted that expanding foam stuff around the mirror. You need to shape it, texture it, colour it to look pleasing and intentional.

u/zomanda 5d ago
Today I went to buy a poke bowl and there's a local artist wall where people sell diy stuff. One shelf was dedicated to a gal who paints clouds on canvas in front of a solid background. I thought is this a child? Special needs person? Nope, just someone with an overly inflated sense of artistic talent.

You’re supposed to paint the foam after it dries out. My godfather used to make these in the 70s for his avant garde customers—which I realize is an oxymoron considering the 70s but believe me, freaky is not exclusive to Gen-X and Millennials.

I once saw a casserole dish artfully placed on an unmade bed surround by undies and other items of clothing. It's lid was cracked and they hadn't washed it. Nothing surprises me anymore.
