Valentine's Day Crafting (with the dollar store)

When Debbie of Debbiedoos announced she was going to have a

Dollar Store Valentine's Day crafting party,

 (wow, that's a mouthful)

 I knew that I needed to get my wheels turning. 

I have been a wallflower at too many parties lately, and

I refuse to watch any longer!

 

Off to the Dollar Tree I went. 

Mind you, without a plan in sight.
(why would I ever have a plan?)

 

I walked around the store for a while,

formulating a loose plan. 

I ended up purchasing the following supplies: 

 

 C'mon now. 

You're dying to know what I'm going to do with that orange,

 aren't you?

heehee

  

Well, I got home and set to work.

Still not really knowing what I wanted to do,

I started folding the paper doilies,

just for the heck of it.

 

 

 

 

I grabbed some straight pins

and using that orange like a styrofoam ball,

I pinned all the doilies onto it

and ended up with this:

 

 

 

Pretty cute, huh?

 Much better than that whole

pumpkin primping disaster, right? 

(I know I shouldn't ever bring that up again,

let alone add a link to it!)

 

 

 I'm thinking this might make a pretty

centerpiece for a Valentine's Day

tablescape and you know how much I love

tablescapes!

  

 

 Believe it or not,

while I was folding all those doilies,

I actually came up with another

Valentine's Day craft idea.

I'll share that one with you soon.

Head on over to Debbiedoos

for more Valentine's Day craft ideas!

(I believe the party link will be up

Thursday morning.)

 

 

Enjoy the day, dear friends!
