My Easter Tree



Happy Monday!

I got a chance this weekend to help my mom decorate for Easter.
Well, we put together a Easter Tree.
I love how it turned out,
 and of course, all of our items we used came from the dollar store or Big Lots!
Take a look--

We also made the bow, using Easter ribbon from the dollar tree.




For the bottom we wrapped yellow and egg decorated cellophane & tissue paper.
Tied it off with some yellow ribbon.

My St.Patty's Day Tree



Happy Friday!!!


Last week I gave my Facebook fans a sneak peek at my 
St. Patty's Day Tree I made for my mom.
She has a little pre-lit tree in her kitchen, we usually decorate it for each holiday.
This year we purchased all of our ornaments and accessories from the Dollar Store & Big Lots.

Here's this years St. Patty's Day Tree 


we used gold and green tissue paper around the bottom.



We used this cute little leprechaun as a topper.




close up of the shamrocks, pots of gold, and glitter hats.
which came from Dollar Tree and Big Lots.



We also decorated the kitchen table with white roses. 
Found these at my local dollar store.




I added some gold and green glitter to them .



Placed them in a vase on the kitchen table 

Easy Peasy DIY!!


Do you decorate a tree for each holiday like me??
If not a tree, maybe a mantel?
I would love to hear!!




linking up with these lovelies!

A few days ago my dad was at our local Flea Market, just looking around, 
when he scored me THREE old window frames-- for around $5!
I'm so excited to use them in my house-

Take a look.
