Dollar Store Elegance

I love to find ways to create a " Look for Less "

project for decorating the home.

I decided to spend some time strolling the

Dollar Tree to see if anything inspired me...

I love a wall with a plate collection!

Since I love to use neutrals in the Dior home

this was a perfect fit...

I purchased a vinyl shelf liner that the Dollar Tree

carries that is called " Toile Taupe " along

with five of their smaller silver platters

found in the aisle with disposable baking products...

Supplies used were the following:

4 rolls of Toile Taupe vinyl shelf lining 12 x 30"

5 small silver serving platters

1 roll of grosgrain ribbon {ivory}

Glue gun or Double stick tape

All items were purchased for this at Dollar Tree.

Total cost right at 10.00 $

I made paper templates to use and trace the vinyl liner

then adhered them to each plate.

Then I added a 4 inch gross grain ribbon tab

on back of the plate with my glue gun.

Using small finishing nails I hung them

placing them at different heights.

This was fast and easy

and I loved the simple elegance of the overall result.

With the remaining leftover of shelf liner

I covered vinyl placemats

from the Dollar Tree to add

a touch of Toile to my ironstone dishes.

I did this by using double stick tape

to adhere the shelf liner to the placemat

I love that since it is vinyl as well you can easily

wipe spills after using them.

After smoothing out any air pockets

I trimmed the excess off of the mat

There were quite a few patterns to choose from

but I loved this Toile print.

I will be doing this project with my Gracie girl

to hang in her bedroom.

And to my most adorable

Mr. Dior who thought maybe

after my Rubber Door Mat Wall Art 

Dollar Store project that I might just

be a ONE HIT wonder I think

this one may win a few fans { I hope }...

 I will be linking up this week
