I recently read a book at bedtime that turned to be a big mistake. Not reading the book, reading this particular book. I laughed so hard, I couldn't get to sleep.
Craft Fail -When Homemade Goes Horribly Wrong, by Heather Mann is a compilation of pictures of crafts that didn't quite go the way they looked in Pinterest. Along with Heather's clever commentary, this made me cry (in a good way!)
Pinterest is a collection of pictures. Kind of a brag board. People post everything from recipes to home decoration tips to craft ideas. Each picture is a perfectly composed beautiful example. We who love to craft drool over these ideas and run out to the hobby store and buy supplies, anticipating an equisite outcome. Won't our family admire us? Well, not so fast.
This book has page after page of failures started out with the highest of intentions. Maybe this book was so funny to me because of all my craft attempts. If you are looking for a good book that will take your mind off your cares, check this one out.
Craft Fail is also a website. If you want to see more fails, check it out.
If you are interested in purchasing, go to a post of Women of Westchester Working Together . Click on the word Bona. It will get you to Amazon, where you can search for CraftFail. When you purchase this way, you will be helping her out.
Have you read any funny books lately?
