15+ Times People Failed So Badly We Wanted to Hug Them

A girl who tried so hard to bake a nice khachapuri, but just got a bun instead, a man who bought a heart-shaped bike rear light that looked so funny, or a pet owner who gave their dog a rib-tickling DIY haircut. These are just a few examples of how people wanted the best but got a little mess instead, and we totally felt their pain!

Here at Bright Side, we know that failure is the mother of experience, and today we’ve collected 19 stories from people who learned from their mistakes and were able to smile right in the face of misfortune.
