Apron Sale & New Wreckwear
Saturday, May 23, 2009
First, check out the poo-surfin' hot dog Gwen B. of The Brown Brush art studio designed:
As with all the truly bizarre, sure-to-confuse-everyone-but-fellow-Wreckies designs, I love it.
Here it is on a shirt:
And it's also available on an apron.
For those of you who enjoyed the Dilbert-inspired Wreck from last week, Becki of WhimzyGirlz designed this little number:
Which also looks good in brown for the guys.
Through Sunday Zazzle is offering 25% off all aprons, and 10% off all t-shirts. That's the best discount I've ever seen them offer for aprons, so if you've been thinking about getting one, now's the time. Here are all the apron designs I currently have for Wrecks, but if there's a design you'd like me to add just let me know.
And as always, send your CW shirt designs to comments [at] cake wrecks [dot] com! If I post it, I'll give you a shout-out and link to your site both on Zazzle and here on Wrecks.
Hope you're all enjoying your holiday weekend! Wreck on!

What's a Wreck?
What's a Wreck?
A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.
Now, don't you have a photo you want to send me? ;)

Where's the book?
We don’t have any copies of Cake Wrecks for sale here, autographed or otherwise. We decided the shipping and handling costs would be too high to make it worth your while. So instead, buy your copies locally or online and then order personalized bookplates: it’s cheaper, easier, and I think even looks a bit nicer.
Ordering Info
Payments must be made through Paypal, which accepts all major credit cards. Sorry, but that means no checks or MOs or barter-based chickens.
We ship everything first class USPS, and will do our best to have your package in the mail within 2 days of your order.

Oh my gosh I LOVE the Dilbert inspired one! Must have!
You know, I would love the "demons of stupity" design on an apron. :)
perhaps i'm just zazzle-challenged, but I dont see the big sale price... do i need to add to the cart and go to checkout before it shows up?
wv: wrinenst: It was supposed to say "winners" but the wreckarator got confused...
I love the poo one. Hehe :)
I was totally looking at those earlier and fell in love with them. Great chices, love them both (especailly the hot dog one :D).
Fan.Tast.Ic. I love the stupity apron!
I think the hot dog poo surfer would make a much better cake wreck book cover than the other choices.
I once intervenously saved some poor kid's birthday when I overheard someone at a supermarket bakery ask "How do you spell Napoleon?" and somebody said "It's like the ice cream."
Now when I look at that lil hot dog surfer I hear Hawaii Five O.
Noo-noo noo-noo noo nooo,
Noo-noo noo-noo noooooo....
Those are really cute..
I love the idea of some unknowing person seeing the shirts and thinking "WTF is a hotdog doing riding a poo wave??"
(My word verification is "nadepto". Do you think that is some Spanish word for "not adept-o"?
Yay for hot dogs floating on poo! LOL

Aren't you violating copyright by taking somebody else's work and then reproducing it as a tee shirt for yourself to sell? Just checking- but you do have permission from all the right people, right?
I wonder if Scott Adams has the "demons of stupidity" trademarked. It's just something I would look into, being a paranoid neurotic mess. :-)
LW- Are you picturing someone saying in court "That was MY hotdog riding a poo wave! How DARE you steal it for your own????"
