This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at BU chapter.

Pinterest is an amazing source for all your DIY projects, but once you actually get around to doing them all hell can break lose. When it comes to cooking projects, the problem is that most of the recipes look extremely easy to do—a dash of sugar here and some food coloring there and boom you’re done. But unless you’re Martha Stewart things can get messy.
