DIY things are not exactly easy

No matter how clear the walk through seems, or how simple they say it is, it isn't. It's actually kinda difficult doing something the first time.

So, as I said, I started crafting Lovecraft things for a friend. It has not been easy. One walkthrough I had to scrap because it just wasn't working. The cling wrap clung to everything until it was supposed to cling, and then I might as well have used plain paper, no glue or tape or anything, and expected it to just stay in place. Even the simple worm making one wasn't so simple, but at least that I can blame on the fact the stuff I ended up buying wasn't what they suggested, because that stuff wasn't anywhere to be found. So, yes, while it worked, it didn't work as suggested, and I don't know if it will work even after the fact. But at least that one was fun to do. The tentacles were a nightmare.

Still, it is kind of working out, and I'm hoping to have things finished by Friday night one way or another. I just find it odd that the DIY directions weren't as direct or exact as I would have expected.
