Link Love: DIY Dollar Store

by 4 Comments

I personally cannot go into a dollar store without buying random things to craft with. Something about knowing the price of ever single item in the store makes me want to buy it all! And there are so many different things you can make with materials from the dollar store. Check out some of my favorites from around the web.

  1. Fancy Pants Frames from Ruffles and Stuff
  2. Jump Rope Necklace from Dollar Store Crafts
  3. Dollar Store Mirror Revamp from Homespun with Love
  4. Carnival of Tiered Trays from Joy’s Hope
  5. Kitchen Art from Crap I’ve Made
  6. 50-Cent Ornament Art from Craftily Ever After
  7. Tiered Baby Top from T-Shirts from Obsessively Stitching
  8. Dollar Store Glass Hurricanes from 321 Sycamore
  9. DIY Chandelier from Brassy Apple

Howto Create Unique Christmas Ornaments On A Budget

Feather Boas and Christmas Balls For Christmas Decor
Using Feather Boas and Christmas Balls, Combine the Two Together to create unique Christmas Tree Ornaments.

Using a feather boa and some plastic Christmas balls that have been purchased from a dollar store. Cut off a snip of feather boa. Using a hot glue gun, glue the feathers to the top of the balls.

 
This simple idea will create fun and whimsicle Christmas decorations. We had a pick and purple theme the year we did this. This year we are thinking Black and White for our theme.
 
Due to the feathers being bulky and airy looking, they really do cover a tree beautifully without having to do too many.
