February 9, 2013 By Meegan 7 Comments

Valentine’s Day is coming and I am always looking for ways to cut costs. That is why I came up with my Valentine Projects for $3 and under…

Make a Valentine Marble Art piece. The marbles are a $1 a bag at Dollar Tree. You probably already have scrapbook paper and glue. Frame it using a frame you already own. So, there ya go. Cost $1

Decorate your shelves or mantel with Valentine decor you already have. Make a Valentine banner with ric rac and cardstock. Super easy!! Cost $.00

Use a frame you already have or buy one at a thrift store. Paint it, add twine, ribbon, or ric rac. Using a clothes pin, clip a Valentine sign to your frame!! My cost $1.75. The sign was a $1 and the frame was 75 cents.

Fill some jars with candy to match your Valentine Decor. They don’t have to be heart jars. Tie ribbon, twine, or ric rac for an added touch. Cost $2 for candy. I had the jars already.

Buy some candlesticks, paint them your colors and tie them with some ric rac. Cost $2.50. I bought the candle sticks at the thriftstore. I had the ric rac. Easy Peasy!!

Decorate some clothes pin with glue and glitter. Super easy. Cost $2.00 for glitter.

Cut out hearts from scrapbook paper. They don’t have to be pink or red. What ever you like. Glue a white heart to your Valentine. Using stamps write your message. Cost $2. $1 for stamps at Michaels Crafts. $1 for scalloped scissors at Target Dollar Section. Easy!!!

Make a crepe paper rosette heart. Backing is a cardboard piece from a cereal box, and the crepe paper was leftover from a party. The ribbon was a remnent. Cost $0.00

Framed Valentine’s Day Marble Art

February 6, 2013 By Meegan 7 Comments

I just love that Valentine’s Day is coming soon!! That is why I made this Framed Valentine’s Day Marble Art for our shelves. Super easy and super fun!! Just use your own imagination to make what you want.

I started with 3 components:

Elmers School Glue

Scrapbook Paper

Flat Marbles (I bought mine at the Dollar Tree)

Then I decided on a shape or letter:

Using a dab of glue on each marble, I glued them to my paper. Once it was completely dry, I could frame it.

I painted the fames to match the scrapbook paper. I couldn’t resist adding some embellishments, and ribbon roses, too. I then framed my Valentine Marble Art.

L O V E looks so nice on our vintage cupboard and

Perfect for Valentine’s Day!! Perfect for our shelves.

So simple!! So easy!!

Are you ready for Valentines Day? Maybe you should try making Framed Valentine’s Day Marble Art!! Let me know if you do, I would love to see yours!!

My Valentines Shelves

January 31, 2013 By Meegan 7 Comments

I am loving white lately, so it was fun to put together my Valentines Shelves this year!! Love pink and red together, so this was fun. I arranged and rearranged until I came up with this:

These shelves just make me smile. Simple elements with a touch of color. Love it!!

I used one of my thrifted frames and tied red ric rac to it. I then covered a clothes pin with glue and white glitter. Cute!! Then clipped this sign I found at the 99 cent store 2 years ago. I know-how cute is that sign??? My colors and my thoughts exactly!!

For the banner I used a larger ric rac. (Gotta love me some ric rac!) I made hearts from scrap-book paper and felt. Easy!!

These little cuties are my fave part!! Again, I used ric rac and to keep with the white theme, and I added white coconut jellies.

Loving the ric rac for added red color.

“Cherish'” is just right for Valentines day, don’t you think?? The pink candle holder is a thrift find. I found it as metallic rainbow colors and painted it with my craft paints from Joann’s to match the dove on the top shelf. The final touch on the candle?? Ric rac, of course!!

Can’t you just feel the love??
