One click on the famous hashtag and I am transported into a world of moms just like me — moms who are seduced by the glitz and glamour of Pinterest, taken in by the "Super Easy DIY" that promise crafting made simple for even the most craft-challenged among us and inspired to take on a project that will delight our children for years to come.
Of course, things never go as Pinterest promises and this Halloween, we can all appreciate the hard work of these parents who definitely #nailedit with a few holiday favorites.
