So many of us strive to make sure Valentine’s Day is extra special – but of course, if we’ve learned anything here at CraftFail, it’s that crafts and recipes often don’t go quite according to plan.

What better way to start a day of love than with a heart-shaped bacon breakfast?

Or maybe we should just skip straight to dessert instead. Cupcake, anyone?

Uh oh, the cupcake seems to have capsized. Let’s stick to whole cakes!

Never mind. Cookies? Yes, cookies! Inspired by Valentine’s conversation hearts!

Hmm, maybe we should skip the sweets and stick to something slightly healthier. Chocolate-covered strawberries, perhaps?

I should probably leave this one to Martha Stewert #Pinterestfail #nailedit #chocolatecovered #strawberries #imnotverygood #neveragain

Ack! Oh well, chocolate is chocolate no matter what it looks like. After all, love itself isn’t always pretty either, is it?!?

Anyway, we might be better off showing our affection with sweet photography instead of actual sweets.

#pinterestfail not only did it not look as good in person as on the Internet but I bought 99 cent lipstick
