10 Of The Crappiest Pins You’ll Ever Pin On Pinterest
I have such a love-hate relationship with Pinterest. Yes, I am a user, and I know there’s probably a support group that can help with that.
I love Pinterest because the pictures are so beautiful and addicting. I normally pin all of the food that I think I will eat and end up using a bunch of really easy recipes to keep my kids from gnawing off their arms before dinner. So, Pinterest is useful for me because it’s like an interactive recipe book.
But the dark side of Pinterest””as with any form of social media””is the competition. I can’t knock Pinterest because I really like using it, but I also see tons of ridiculous supermom crafts that I know I’ll never be able to achieve. I’m not crafty at all, so the extent of my creative nurturing will be to hand my kid a glue stick and make sure he doesn’t eat it.
Pinterest #momlife is nursery decor, elaborate meals made with organic kale, hand crocheted baby booties, and annoying e-cards that make you “LOL.” I put together a complete Pinterest list of the worst crap you’ll ever see so you don’t have to worry about looking for it on your own.
From me to you:
