I blame Pinterest

Anyone who has ever spent any time on Pinterest and clicked on the DIY and Easy tabs, will have come across a multitude of things that you just know are not going to be quick or easy to make and will in no way resemble the picture you just pinned.  And so the term Pinterest Fail was coined. 

While tidying up last weekend I came across several half finished craft projects.  Right I thought to myself, one of these is getting done today.  I chose the beach art project I came up with on holidays last year which technically hadn't even been started but I had everything I needed and I didn't feel like knitting (a blanket project that will probably be finished in time for me to be a little old lady with a blanket round her knees).

The result, while not quite a fail, did not live up to the image I had in my head.  But hey, I managed to finish something.  So I'm calling it a Pinterest Meh.  




(It's a spinifex beach grass wreath, for those of you too polite to ask but who are wondering "what the *$%# is that?".) 😊
