Since we have been moving in and unpacking I have acquired a lot of little items that I want to repurpose, decorate with, or finish working on. I've also been to my local dollar tree and 99 cent stores looking for cheap things we needed... And I swear every time I go in for one or two things I leave with $25 worth of stuff. But honestly- it's because I needed stuff and had no idea those stores carried them!!
So I'm going to be sharing some of those dollar tree inspired projects and easy DIY ideas. Literally so easy that anyone can do them.
So first up is this vase set I bought at Michaels a month or so ago. I didn't know WHAT I was going to do with it, it just was on a really great sale and I pretty much just had to have it.
I kind of looked around my house and decided that the bathroom window sill was its new home. I've been trying to figure out how to decorate in this room because it is so narrow and kind of dark- so I really feel this actually kind of livens the room up. Next in this room is going to be art. Gotta figure out what style first though.
So I was headed to the dollar tree and figured I would see if there were any cute faux flowers. And there was! I was trying to decide if I wanted Spanish moss or some pebbles/ rocks... But decided it might look cluttered if I did that.
It only took a few minutes to put this together and i love it. I helped the bathroom have some character and cleaned up my dining room a bit as well. I have another of these vases (different style) that I am most likely going to do the same with but use it in my laundry room.
Do you have any dead spaces that this could work for? All in all I probably spent $15 total on this including the vase set. But it gives me enough faux flowers to fill my other vase and probably one more. So this really was a more affordable project for me.
And honestly, at least I won't forget to water REAL flowers! 😂 I'm still working on my green thumb.
