Pinterest Challenge

So I would have thought with no work and no school for two weeks I would have been AMAZING at blogging. I was wrong.  My lazy self took over. But I did do quite a few pinterest projects.  Didn't not succeed in doing one every day (but some days I did two, that counts for something right)  So here's a review of my pinterest challenge.

Day 1: It took my friend and I forever to decide what to do.  This actually occurred most days. Food vs Project was mostly the case.  Since friend and I were having dinner together, we decided to make a dessert, and boy was it scrump-dili-umptious!  We made Chubby Hubby Bars! So yummy.  It's pretty much a cookies with Reese's and pretzels inside with caramel and chocolate on top. SO GOOD and pinterest Success!

Day 1: I also tried to do my hair from a pin earlier that morning. No so much a success. One I was trying to hurry, two, I'm pretty sure my hair is too short and it would call for a lot of bobbypins. So after trying it once, I gave up. Pinterest fail.

Day 2: It was another friend's birthday coming up so I decided to make her something and I used an idea from pinterest.  An owl picture made from buttons.  I probably needed more buttons, but it turned out cute, and actually looked like an owl. Success!

Day 2: Part 2, I wanted to paint my nails. So looked for ideas on pinterest. In my opinion, some are way to hard to do on your own.  So I opted for pink with flowers.  They looked like flowers, but were messy when you go close.  But I'm going to call it a success.

Day 3: Back again to the thinking what to do.  Well, really we went to the store with multiple projects in mind, but Wal-Mart did not have anything that we needed.  So we sat down in the aisle at Wal-Mart searching Pinterest for an idea.  Skirts. We made skirts.  And what is awesome about these skirts, the have POCKETS! So amazing! The skirt was pretty simple to do. And they turned out cute. Sadly, I haven't really liked mine yet. I decided the shapre of the skirt is not what I'm used to, but my friends looks way darling on her.  So definitely a success story all the way.

Day 3:  The yw in my ward came over to make cookies for the court of honor that night. We made these corn flake peanut butter balls (AKA Deliciousness) that I actually pinned awhile ago. They were AWESOME! So Good. Messy, but good. Success!

Day 4: Tub cleaning.  My tub looks dirty and I can't find anything to fix it. I've tried all sorts of cleaning products, lemon oil.... nothing works. So I tried dish soap and baking soda.  Now, it didn't get the dirt out, but it took all the hard water stains off the fixtures.  They look so shiny.  So this is a lose/win situation.

And this is where the challenge went downhill.  My friend and I didn't see each other as much, my lazy side came out and well.... I failed at completeing the challenge.  I still tried to do something every day, but  I didn't make it every day.  Here's some other things I tried.

Day 9: Peach crisp. Total success.  Husband is already asking for more and it's not even gone yet. I did double the crisp part, mostly because it's my favorite!

Day 10: Cookies in a cup. Interesting. Needed ice cream, but it worked.

So all in all, I think my friend and I did pretty good. We didn't manage to do something every day, but what we did do was definitely an accomplishment.  Even the things that didn't turn out so well, still can be attempted again.

And of course, I didn't take a lot of photos. :( But find me on Pinterest and most of the things are Pinned on my completed Board.

Happy Pinning!
