Welcome to November!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Getting closer to Christmas and I find more I would like to make.
Have any of you watched any of the you tube videos making stuff with Dollar Tree items? I have seen some cute ones the last couple days and did get some of the supplies. Hope to get a few more of the supplies and have to make for next year while they have the stuff if they do.
Examples:
Spell out the word Joy with 2 of the wire candy cane forms. One upside down and the other you cut in half and make the y and the O is a small greenery wreath. Wrap garland around wire form and they use lights on all and can be in or outside.
Magnetic little boxes (to keep items in with a see thru top) can become shaker items.
They show you how to make the canvas lighted pictures and lighted pictures using gift bags and frames. The lights, bags and frames all $1 so a nice gift if it works like they show.
Tin boxes you put cookies in that has a see thru lid--makes a shadow box. I couldn't find any that didn't have something on the lid see thru part.
Anyhoo, cute ideals (I thought) for some things but will table for next year or so lots of them. Just would like to get the supplies. The store I was in yesterday only had shopping baskets so couldn't hold and look at much.
I got some fat quarters to make a couple doll blankets, and still need to do potholders, cord wraps and such.
I would like to do stuff today BUT I am planning to clean my closet and it will take the whole day plus more than likely!!!!
What are your plans for the week?????
Sorry so long!
HAPPY HAPPY CRAFTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
