Challenge of the Week{Dollar Store Crafts}

Are you like me and want to send the Dollar store a thank you card? There is nothing like browsing the aisles and getting goodies, then going home to create something fabulous all the while spending just a few  dollars. I feel so proud of myself and want to tell everyone I know when I do that. That is a Facebook status update for sure!

Well, this week I am going to show you 3 very fun tutorials using Dollar Store items and then on Wednesday, you will have the opportunity to link up your projects using Dollar store goodies.

Sounds fun! I can’t wait to see what you come up with.

Here is a project I did last year to celebrate back to school. We had our back to school dinner/party and I may have been the only one excited about the party, definitely not the kids. But we still had a fun party.

I made this centerpiece for the table using Dollar Store finds.

Items bought at the dollar store were:

~glass vase

~ pencils

~Flowers

~ Styrofoam

~ Flash cards

 

This project cost $7 and became a teacher gift after our party.

So, this week I cannot wait to see your Dollar Store creations. If you made it with items from the dollar store, any dollarstore, then link it up.
