Pinterest Fail

Have you ever heard of Pinterest?? It is a crafters dream. You can go on this site, look at others crafts, dinner ideas, and what nots and pin them to your boards. So at a moments notice if the kids are board or you need a dinner idea you can go to your pins and pick something out. One day I picked that we would do this felt tree. Seemed easy enough. I had all the things I needed already in the craft closet. So I pulled it all out. Cut a tree, cut some ornaments out and hung the tree up.
The girls had a blast taking the ornaments on and off the tree. However within a couple of min. the ornaments would fall off and not stick that well. And within a day the tree kept falling off the wall. (I used packing tape to tape it to the wall)
The tree only lasted a weekend and now the ornaments are in the play microwave as food and the tree is off the wall and back in the felt pile in the closet. I guess all the crafts can not be a winner....

I just pulled ours off the wall too. I got tired of Zachary walking by and whacking it so the ornaments would fall off. After picking them up 247 times, I admitted defeat.
