I don't know what it is about Mondays lately, but for some reason I have been in the mood to craft. Remember I told y'all about my goal to use only what I have around the house when I'm making my crafts? Well, I decided I would try to make a Valentine tree using that concept.
I started out with my old Easter tree that I have had for many years.
I then gathered together card stock, old valentine candy from last year that I was saving to make these again, some ribbon and doilies from last year, and two bows that came with a giveaway I won last year at Sharon Kay's! Last but not least, as a tree skirt I used our puppy Jake's bandanna~ don't worry, I'll give it back so he can wear it on the big day!
This is another "make do" project that I really enjoyed. It can be both challenging and rewarding trying to "make do" with what I already have! Who knows what next Monday will bring? :o)
I'm going to keep it in the guest powder room ~ it looks so pretty when it is lit!
