G.L.
I am giggling right now because I am SO right there with you. Pinterest projects (and you-tube projects, and those easy-seeming projects in family magazines) always look so easy and fun. And then reality happens.
One year I took an idea from a magazine. Homemade wrapping paper - how cute, right? So we got rolls of brown paper, red, white and green tempera paint, and big holiday themed foam rubber stamps. And then the "fun" of trying to manage a craft with a kindergartener and a 2 y.o. and a dog happened. I had rolls of wet wrapping paper everywhere. I had spilled paint (on the dog, no less). I had children walking in spilled paint and then running through the carpeted rental house.
And then I peeled myself off the ceiling and had a huge glass of wine.
I don't do craft projects at home any more. :-)
