Decorating with nature, sticks, spray paint, and Dollar tree decor!
Happy over the hump day to you!
You may recall my decorating on a budget, and with nature centerpiece over the Holidays.
Instead of taking the sticks out and throwing them away
I thought, hmmmm…
how about simply adding some Dollar treeValentines
embellishments.
I
can
do
that!
Some are hot glued, or with a simple mini clothes pin.
Sticks are spray painted a variety of colors…red, blues, green and some kept natural.
The paper heart doilies also came from the Dollar tree
and I mod podged
some
old
book pages.
That’s it for today.
I think I am taking a crafting/blogging break for the day.
I have been like a machine with all these crafts…
Just look at the past week and you will find at least five new Valentine crafts on the cheap for you to do too.
You can follow me anywhere, any time!~

Very pretty, Debbie! I love the heart doilies with the book pages. Love poems would be a great thing to use, too.
HI Debbie,
This is such a darling idea for Valentine’s Day, thanks for sharing! xo ~Liz
How perfect!! I will be doing this today. Thanks for the great idea.
Make sure you post a pic Val, I want to see:)
Cute centerpiece Debbie. Happy hump day.
I am still on my blogathon. I don’t know how many more I will do in consecutive order. I was never meant to be a daily blogger.LOL Having fun though.
I didn’t think I was meant to either Pat, but geez get me on a roll and there is no stopping me.
Hey! I just spray painted a whole bunch of sticks yesterday for some spring bundles. Your centerpiece is adorable. I heart it. 😉
I like it and Valentines isnt a fav or mine.. you made it look GOOD
Oh, I LOVE it!!! I love taking natural elements and using them to be creative. 🙂

How fun, and I love easy! I don’t really decorate for Valentine’s Day, but blogging kind of changes things, doesn’t it?! Hubby & I have both been sick this week, and now my car is dead, so I probably won’t quite make it to your party. Oh, well, at least I can enjoy the inspiration!
Sorry you guys were not well Sheila. Hope you feel better. Your comment is back:)
Phooey, my screen just went blank and my comment disappeared, so forgive me if I’m repeating myself. Anywho, I love your decorations, easy is my fave!
Debbie that looks so pretty!! You could even use those sticks for Easter and hang little eggs from them.
Cute! Cute! Cute!! You have such creativity!
I love your little hearts and the TINY little clip…sooo cute!
Very Cute and very Crafty for sure. I love this idea. Those cute white dollies from the dollar store are great and I love that you put the book pages on them. So creative my dear. Love it.

Hi Debbie … Cute … love how you used the branches … this looks very pretty and so easy to. I have been to Dollar Store two times to try to get inspired, but just away empty handed. You always come up with the most interesting decorations.
