Valentine's Day Garland

The bestie asked me to join her to run errands today. I've limited my budget for the month of January, so when she asked me to join her at Michael's and Hobby Lobby, I knew I was pushing my luck ;)

I saw this adorable garland at Michael's made out of scraps of ribbon, felt, and fabric. I immediately fell in love with it! It was $14.99, and I could've used a 40% off coupon, but I decided against it. We then traveled to Hobby Lobby and I found the cutest wired, checkered burlap ribbon. It was 50% off, so I paid $5 and some change for it. 

I got home and found plenty of materials to make my garland. Here it is!

Not bad for $5 and some change!

(and time...quite some time, actually)

A little closer look at the pieces I used.

Football Season is Here!

I'm a big OSU fan. I wanted to think of some ways to decorate that weren't generic or used the usual OSU symbols. In other words, I wanted to use my crafty creativity to come up with something different! So I pulled out some white letter stickers, scrapbook paper, wooden blocks, Mod Podge, and ribbon and was able to come up with a cute letter set to sit on my shelf throughout the football season!

I also made a couple yarn wreaths for the craft show coming up.

GO BUCKS!
