Tinkering with some Dollar store match boxes over the weekend and came up with some petite pretties. I used some French book paper and religious images found on Etsy to dress them up. Slide open the box and... You find a little surprise inside. A small square religious metal - also made using the Etsy images. These would be sweet to give as a gift, but I must admit...these are for me! Jeanine ...
I picked up a few Xmas ornaments over the weekend at our local Dollar store. They are super cute and glittery, but definitely missing a little something-something. I can't make a paper snowflake to save my life so I immediately grabbed a three-pack of these glitter snowflakes. I printed out some religious images onto label paper to start. The images are super small which was ideal for this project because the middle of each snowflake...
I always have a bunch of Dollar store prayer candles lying around. Each year, I try to do a new style for Xmas. This year, I started by wrapping each candle in vintage sheet music. I picked up the glitter stars from Michael's. They are self-sticking so I added one to the front of each candle. I added some rhinestone bling above the stars. If you remember, I picked up a French dictionary over...

Then, I printed off the words wish and believe using my favorite carnival font from DaFont.com onto plain...

Martha Stewart Snake Wreath Knock-Off
When I saw Martha Stewart's black snake wreath floating around on Pinterest, I just knew I had to make one for Halloween. I had a random wreath hanging around and some fake snakes (from the Dollar Store) left over from last year. I spray painted the wreath black and then used my hot glue gun to add the snakes (which were already black). The snakes are a little bigger than I remembered. Either that...
I popped into a local thrift store earlier this week. I wasn't in much of a buying mood but I figured I'd take a quick look. I walked out 99 cents lighter thanks to this petite muffin tin. It's not vintage but for 99 cents, I knew I could give it a vintage farmhouse feel simply by adding some candles to the muffin slots. It's a look I've seen on Etsy and I just love...
