I found these adorable tiny eggs at the Dollar Tree (12pk for $1). I really liked them but wasn't sure what to do with them. So I cut them in half and made this specimen art. So cute, easy and it cost me less than $1.

Heart up your house
Raise your hand if you're addicted to pinterest.com?? I am, I am!! I've given myself a rule to only log on, IF I'm looking for something? Otherwise I could waste hundreds of hours searching and clicking and pinning.
However, I do LOVE that it has made coming up with holiday decor & crafts easy. I'm a REALLY good copy cat and pinterest is perfect for copy cats. Here is a look at my valentine holiday decorations...all of which I got the ideas from that AWESOME site!!
Last year I got this adorable heart candy dish on clearance at Michael's. This year I got the idea to dress it up by putting it on a small stand (which is actually a cheap dollar store candle holder, spray painted white). Cute & Cheap!! Fits perfectly next to my plate stand in the kitchen that I put small Valentine plates on which I got years ago from Crate & Barrel on clearance.
My Valentine plates on my hanging plate rack.
I got the idea for the heart specimen art from
I put my own spin on it by using heart that were 3D that I got from the dollar store and cutting them in 1/2. I love the look of the glittery hearts.
And finally...here are my Valentine mailboxes that I bought for my boys last year. This year I just glued them to small stands. Which again were just small glass candle holders from the dollar tree that I painted white.
LOVE THEM!!
I hope I shared a couple ideas that you could steal as well. All are simple and CHEAP!!
Happy Heart Day!!
~XOXO~
