My dollar tree haul

Who else loves to shop at the Dollar Tree? I go there at least once a month and stock up on all sorts of things. It is particularly awesome to get supplies to do craft projects.



Check out my first Dollar Tree Haul video. Hope you get some inspiration to head out to that store this week and find some great deals.

Simple Baby Shower Table Decoration

My sister had a baby last year, and I was tasked with decorating for it. I looked around and came up with this really cool display. 

How to Make a Simple Baby Shower Display



This project was a little out of character for me, because I actually bought the foam balls. Normally, I would only use what I have on hand. I just couldn't come up with an alternative to the foam balls. 

List of Supplies For Table Decoration:


It didn't take much to put this idea together. This is what I used to create my table decoration. 

-glass bowl
-white foam balls (different sizes)
-rubber duck
-light blue tissue paper
-shiny blue tissue paper

I stuffed some of the light blue tissue paper into the glass bowl. Then I put white foam balls in the bowl to look like bubbles. The rubber duck sits on the top. Under the bowl I put a piece of shiny blue tissue paper. 

I hope this works out for you and that you find what you need to make this simple decoration.

Last Minute Christmas Gift Idea- Snowman Wrap

I had to come up with a thank you gift a few weeks ago for about 35 volunteers. It needed to be inexpensive and not take long to make. Here is what I came up with.

Snowman Face Wrapped Around Hot Chocolate

Most people love hot chocolate right? I decided to make the packaging look a bit more festive. You can see the pictures of how to make a snowman wrap around your snack of choice. This works well with packets of tea, bags of popcorn, or any thin package. 





I hope this idea helps you finish off your last minute Christmas shopping.
