You see them hanging on your Grandma’s wall, and they usually say something lame like “Godliness is Next to Cleanliness.” Hey Grandma! How about you get some cross stitch patterns we can relate to? Ya, thanks. Anyway, these hand stitched advice hangings are relevant and hilarious.
Keeping it real with one liners like ‘Love’em’ and ‘Leave’em’, and my personal favorite, ‘Do the Wrong Thing’. This is straight up, funny advice, and I would totally have a piece of hand stitched advice for myself.
