I have a DIY rule I picked up while doing wedding projects: if my hubs wouldn't notice it, it's not worth doing. </p> <p>I use him as my example since he's a normal person with normal tastes-- if it's something soo miniscule (like personalized confetti vs. personalized bunting), I'm not going to waste my time/effort making it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-bad-when-you-see-the-blogs-of-diy-queens#post-112215 Thu, 05 Apr 2012 11:03:38 +0000 kml636 112215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I feel so lazy and incompetent after reading these blogs! Yikes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-bad-when-you-see-the-blogs-of-diy-queens#post-112177 Thu, 05 Apr 2012 10:47:20 +0000 Mrsbells 112177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel inspired and motivated to attempt my own DIYs. If it werent for DIY blogs I would have never felt brave enough to try my own DIYs for the wedding and I was so happy with how everything turned out </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-bad-when-you-see-the-blogs-of-diy-queens#post-112122 Thu, 05 Apr 2012 10:16:33 +0000 heffalump 112122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always feel inspired!</p> <p>My plan is to do DIY with cheating for LO's birthday. Like I want to make sugar cookies and stamp out flowers into them. So I'll buy store bought sugar cookie dough and do my own twist to the cookies. In the past I would have done all DIY, but really I'd rather spend time with LO then spend hours in the kitchen. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-bad-when-you-see-the-blogs-of-diy-queens#post-112118 Thu, 05 Apr 2012 10:13:45 +0000 Alivoo01 112118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not crafty so I'm jealous of their talent, but it doesn't make me sad per se. I just don't have it in me. I have awesome friends (and a hubby) that are though and totally help me out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-bad-when-you-see-the-blogs-of-diy-queens#post-111707 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 20:59:48 +0000 cupcakemama 111707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always get a mental picture of what it would look like if I attempted it ie A dog's breakfast!</p> <p>Just get store bought and hide the wrappers! Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-feel-bad-when-you-see-the-blogs-of-diy-queens#post-111704 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 20:54:43 +0000 chopsuey 111704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just finished looking through a mom of 2's blog. </p> <p>For her daughter's birthday, this mom did EVERYTHING DIY. A BEAUTIFUL cake from scratch, picture perfect cake pops from scratch, decorations, cookies, favors, crafts..<br /> Everything looked AMAZING and STORE BOUGHT. </p> <p>It kinda made me feel bad for not being as awesome.<br /> Then I thought, "No, I can do everything if I WANTED, but I just don't want to."</p> <p>Which made me feel bad for being lazy. HAHA :P </p>
