Jenn203: #9 😂😂😂😭😂😂😂😂😂
chatty: #30 the bottom ones look like they are throwing up
chatty: #12 rubber duckies from hell
Michelle70501: Lol, happy I haven't let Pinterest down yet.
Kristin: On a lot of these it's obvious on where the person went wrong, I've done most of these recipes and most of them came out how they were suppose to. Except the pancake ones. Those are difficult!
Allyfedor: Some of these I consider to be a "people fail" and not a "Pinterest fail" hahaha
mar: Some of these look like there on purpose or totally not related to original pic. Also most of these fails could have been avoided if they let there back goods cool down.
Danijela: They are a lot harder to do than they look.. This is why we go to professionals for this sort of thing :/
Chelsea: That police call box is actually called a "tardis" don't want to anger any whovians out there lol
chatty: #6 well then
