Dollar Store {Holiday} Decorating!

Who said that decorating your home had to cost a fortune to look like a million bucks? You can find many great items at your local dollar store that can make your home beautiful and won’t break the bank.
I was reading Melissa’s blog, 320 Sycamore, when I fell in love with her dollar store version of Williams Sonoma’s glass hurricane! Click here to see what Melissa’s Dollar Store knock off!
Mellisa’s post inspired me to make a run to my dollar store (ok, who are we kidding? like I NEED a reason to go to the Dollar store?! LOL) My Dollar Tree did not have the tall white skinny candles, so I had to come up with a few other idea’s – but really, the ideas of how to fill these are limitless!!
Take a look! Here’s what I picked up at Dollar Tree (E-6000 I got at Walmart)
See the glass candle stick? I glued them to some of the glass candle holders like Melissa did!
First I filled them with the ornaments that I bought for another project (you’ll just have to wait for that one!) then tied some holiday ribbon on each one and……..voila!

Then I filled them with candy! You can buy those big candy cane sticks at Dollar Tree 2 for a $1!
I LOVE how these turned out!! I may have to go back for more!
It will be so fun to change these up for different seasons and holidays. Thanks for the inspiration Melissa!

That is so very pretty! You have a great eye. My favorite is the big candy canes in the vase. Hey, I could even do that! I have been looking for a new idea for my dining room center piece!

I thought you had stolen that photo from a stock photography site. It is so professional and gorgeous looking, it's hard to believe you got everything from the Dollar Store.

These are great! I made some of these, too! I actually posted to this party also. http://vanessadolberry.blogspot.com/2009/12/what-do-you-get-when-you-take-one-of.html
Love how you put the candy sticks in them. So festive! I think I might just etch a monogram on mine like the Williams Sonoma version…
