Housewarming Gifts - Sold 114
It's still hard for me to believe that "Housewarming Gifts" is the worst-selling daily (i.e., non-special event) tee ever. I think it's vastly under-appreciated. I know it's pretty winter-specific, but I would have thought the design would appeal to more people. It seems to me like it should have attracted people who like "cute" AND the more "artsy" crowd, but instead it seems like it didn't quite resonate with either group. Poor little house. I wonder if it would have done better in the pre-Christmas months... that red hat and scarf are quite festive, after all.

They're definitely red on the shirt... they do have a pattern of little pink x's on them, but it doesn't scream "PINK!!" to me.
I admit I can see how this design might not appeal to a lot of guys, though. Especially the guys who complain in the shirt thread for EVERY single cute animal shirt, "How am I supposed to wear this? IT DOESN'T MATCH MY TESTOSTERONE OMGWTFBBQ"
