Dollar store Christmas extravaganza

By Debbiedoo's Team Published: Nov 21, 2015

Oh gosh, this time of year just gets me too excited! It is my all time favorite season to craft for.  Actually, it’s probably a tie with Fall.  Spring is my least favorite..because I’m just not into pink and pastels.  

Welcome! Today is our seasonal Dollar tree Christmas party that Shannon (Fox Hollow Cottage) and I have been hosting for about 3-4 years now.  It’s our favorite party.

All thing Dollar budet Christmas crafts, decor and more ideas!

 

My Mom and sister are here as well this week and I am excited to spend the holiday with them. It’s tradition.  We have a fun week planned too.

So many ways to craft with dollar tree for Christmas this year

Anything Dollar friendly is welcome. It doesn’t have to be just from the dollar tree.

I’ve shared with y’all before that every time I visit the dollar tree I try to look at ordinary things in a different light.  Some things have turned out well, while other things I have tried are a flop.  That’s the way it goes though. I always say you never know until you try.  I never feel too bad for the flops because they don’t cost me a lot to flop!

Can you guess by looking at Santa what that is?  A scarf?, a glove? nope, it’s a sock.

They had such cute Christmas socks at the dollar tree I wanted to be able to use them in some sort of craft.

So what I did was paint a dollar tree wine glass with the Americana decor chalky finish paint.  Two coats, and let it dry in between coats.  I let the glass sit over night because I had several crafts going at the kitchen table.  We can’t even eat at our table this time of year it seems.  I have stuff all over!

sparkle

After the two coats of chalky paint the next day I went over the glass with a little sparkle mod podge.  We all need a little sparkle in our lives this time of year.

Dollar tree painted glass with chalky paint, sparkle mod podge and cut a sock to fit around it for texture.

I used one sock and cut it in half. I rolled it around the ball of the glass and tucked in the end under the glass. Just straighted out here and there, and that was it.  I tied some bakers twine around the stem.  You can certainly add your own twist to a festive Christmas glass/candle votive holder.

 The party will be open until Christmas. So no worries if you can’t jump in right away.  If you do not have a blog and want to share with me what you created this season from Dollar budget decor, please feel free to send me your pics and I will share them on my Facebook.

Here is my last seasons

    Debbie … I LOVE your upside-down-wine glass-candle-holder-with-a-sweater. You are so clever. So happy to be able to contribute to your Party. I remember so well your link party for new bloggers. That is where I started. Thanks for all your inspirations and encouragement.
