Did you ever think…
the word ambient and Dollar tree would be in the same
sentence?
Surprise surprise, it can be and let me show you how I did it.
I bought these three little candle votives.
But oh how plain are these?
Sure you can stick a colored candle in them..
but still kinda boring.
I will show you how I did these soon…
in fact maybe in a quick video demo….
and I mean quick, 5 minutes of your time.
My friends came over for bunco last night…
we had a blast.
But one of the nicest things they said to me,
is I am all about the details…
and the smallest of things they notice.
I love that!
I was playing with my night time settings on my camera.
Plus these votives…are meant to be shown in the evening.
Catch up soon.
I hope you are gearing up for the
DOLLAR tree Christmas next Friday.
We are READY!
If you are not a regular here, I sure would love to see you back again.
XO

November 15 at 11:51 amdollar tree just opened a store here where I live – I went this morning and frankly I was disappointed – I was really hoping to find something to inspire me to participate in your upcoming dollar tree holiday party…I am hoping they will get better merchandise soon

Molly and I went to Dollar Tree last weekend just to pick up a few things to make so that we could come back over to your blog and party. I’d better get busy making what I came up with!

November 15 at 6:09 pmBunco is so much darn fun, I am hoping to host a party after the new year. And when someone says something nice, like one of my BFF’s husbands who told me “your house always smells so good”, I never forgot it. Made me feel good.

November 16 at 6:17 amI agree with your friends about the details.
I ‘m also anxious to see the votive makeover. I think I’ll love it, based on the looks of it.
