So after visiting
ILYMTC blog this week, I realized, I'm a week behind. But the good news is that I did two pinterest projects this week!!!!! Whoop!
First, for the project to be considered "Week 2," I got a jump start on my Christmas mantle. I got the idea from this picture.
BUT, you know I have to adapt things a bit..... So I pulled a little bit of a "Redneck Wine Glass" on this decor and hot glued candle sticks to the bottom. Here's the before and afters.
I wanted them to be a bit tiered. There will be one tall and one short on each side of the TV. I got this stuff for CHEAP at a peddler's mall. The big jars were $1.50 each and the small ones $1 each. The candle sticks were between $1 and $2 each too. I love that none of the candle sticks are the same. But they make the jars the same height. When I put them on the mantle, I'm going to put a pillar candle in them and epsom salt around the candle so it looks like snow!!! :) Then I'll tie a ribbon around the top of the candle stick to be *SO* festive. PUMPED. And I'm falling in love with my glue gun.
For the Week 3 project..... I got my inspiration from this pin....
I can NEVER find my keys in the dumpster I call my purse. And our fridge is filling up at a rapid pace with crap we've stuck on there with magnets. So I figured why not make a place to store my keys and leave IMPORTANT notes. Lord knows I have enough wine corks to complete this project! Here's the final product!
I got a $2.50 picture frame from the Dollar General. And those hooks were only $1 there too. We won't talk about how much wine I drank to get those corks. I am going to get some ribbon to hot glue to the back of this and hang it with. Its going to be awesome. And it was so cheap!!!! I love cheap projects!!!!!
I've got more projects planned for next week. Can't wait!!!!
