Dollar Store Gift Project






dollar tree gift project for under 5.00$
an easy way to pretty up those boring legal pads
the gals in the office use everyday





supplies needed: double stick tape, ruler, scissors
all other items are available at the dollar store







they also have the matching pens in 3 packs

I also embelished the purse size notebooks with letters
You can add anything you like to make them more personal, the neat part is that you can make 3 sweet little gifts for under 5.00 dollars

Hello Kate~~I've just strolled into your blog for my first visit...I've enjoyed taking a peek at your past posts. You've got a beautifully inviting spot.
We share similar taste for so many of the same design elements.

The one thing that could cheer me up as I watch fall come to a close was... the anticipation of Winter and all the Christmas Festivities that come with it.
Providing creative inspiration.

I've bookmarked you in my favs.
I look forward to coming by your charming blog again.
Come by for a visit. Your company would be nice.

Sweet wishes,
Sara
