Don't you just love a good steal versus splurge DIY? I love the look of these galvanized hanging planters. I do NOT love the $40 price tag. So, like any good DIYer...I made my own for a fraction of the price! Everything you see here - including the planters - is from Dollar Tree. Yes, you read that correctly. Each contains 4 faux succulents (you could probably add more) and fake moss (which I already...

Valentine's Day is just two weeks away, and I'm still working on some romantic decor in the Okio B house. Who says February 14th has to be all reds and pinks? I used some black & white gingham scrapbook paper for this quick Dollar Tree frame makeover - and topped it off with the French flashcard for kiss.Yesterday, I broke out the label maker for these heart-shaped tart tins.

Have you seen all the buzz on Instagram about Target's $3 ceramic gumball machine? They are super cute and terribly difficult to find. Some people are even re-selling them for triple the price - or more! I don't know about you, but I don't have time for that.After hitting a few local stores and coming up empty handed, I decided to make my own. Here's what you need: a fishbowl (found at Dollar Tree), a...
