Create simple spring decor!
What you will need:
Artificial Flowers from Dollartree (I purchased 3)
Recycled Jars/Alcohol Bottles
Acrylic Paint or Food Coloring
Paint Brush
Scissors
Ribbon (optional)
Water
Instructions:
Clean bottles and remove labels w/hot soapy water. Match acrylic paint to match the petals of flowers. The best paint to use is cheap paint! Try not to use the pricey stuff, it's all I had =(
Fill bottles with water. Apply paint to brush and dab before adding to bottle. Too much paint can cause globs in the water! Place lid and shake until paint has mostly dissolved. Remove lid and allow colored water to settle. Cut flowers to desired lengths and arrange to matching bottles like so.

Magically transform any dollar store mirror with this simple tutorial!
What you will Need:
Old Calendar, but you can use magazine cutouts
Scrap Booking Paper or Wrapping Paper
Tacky Glue
Mod podge
Mirror from dollar store
Instructions:
Place mirror over calendar, trace & cut. Next place mirror over scrap paper, trace & cut.
Cover back of mirror with tacky glue. Place scrap book paper over tacky glue, pressing evenly to avoid creases or bubbles (the thinner the paper, the more likely you will have air pockets). Allow to dry and coat with a layer of mod podge. Apply another coat as soon as the first coat has dried. Place calendar cut out or magazine cutout onto the 2nd layer of wet pod podge. Allow to dry, apply a 3rd coat over entire surface to seal in the calendar cutout.
