New Favorite Blog

Have you guys seen this: Dollar Store Crafts

I must credit Virginia for showing me this blog. I love it.

This is one of my favorite things and I really want to make these!! and these and then, these don't even look like coffee filters and check this one out! I have a wall of T's in my home and that last project would be a great way to bring the T's in the room, and off the wall.

The blog is set up with different sections - like under $1, under $5 and then a section that's inspired by high-end designers.

I love it. The past few days she's been showing birds - birds that were made from the dollar tree but inspired by places that were more expensive!!

So, go check it out and come back here and tell me what you liked the most!!

No worries, please!

This little bird house could not have come at a more opportune time!

I have really been going through a lot, and God has been working on me, through it all and one of the verses that I have claimed is this one:

"If God will take care of the birds in the air...how much MORE will He take care of Me!!" Matthew 6:26

So, I made this cute little birdhouse, as a little tiny reminder! It's in my studio, and it greets me when I walk up there (which is usually when I need a little getaway!)

A Candy Kind-of Birthday!

***Attention, here's a Dollar Tree Craft For ya***




So, how fun in the world is this, if I do say so myself!

A Christmas time, I fell in love with this Dollar Tree vase (thanks to Virginia).....so, when it was time to make a birthday gift for Scott's Administrative Assistant, I fell back to this new fave!

I started with the candle holder, and the vase.....a little bit of E6000, and let it set!


Then, I used my Can't Buy Me Love Scripts Kit , and made the little "J" tag, and the "happy birthday" note. I love those JilliBean Soup alphabets!

I then hot glued some candy bars to skewers, the tags to skewers, and the best part.....the marshmallows as filler!!!! Ahh, I love it!

And, then, topped it off with an Apple Gift Card....and tada! Happy Birthday Jenny!

I hope she loved it as much as I do!
