Hey y’all! I am so excited! But first off, random picture of myself.
[Mermaid hair!]
So today, I went out looking for a bargain so I can get started on all of my crazy DIY craft ideas that I’ve collected from Pinterest. I’m looking for a bargain, because, well. I’m unemployed. I have savings from the Navy, but without getting too boring financially, there is more output than there is input.
I scored, BIG TIME.
First off, I hit up the Dollar Store. Always a blast. I found this glass cylinder for [gasp] a dollar, which made me kind of giggle. A week ago we were in a department store [I’m not saying which…] and saw a set of three of those exact cylinders for…. $40. Seriously. They weren’t painted, they didn’t have any special shape, or color, or etching. Just plain old glass cylinders exactly like this one….
[The paint is for a craft coming up later on. ]
Next I hit up Wal-Mart, which ironically is the only place I didn’t score a sale! Afterwards I went to Michael’s and scored even more loot. All of the paper cutting tools and craft paint was 40% off. I love 40% off!
So basically I scored all of this for…… $30.75. Exactly. I was so excited!
So I gathered up my favorite elf helper, and we started crafting.
[Love a man who will help me channel my inner Martha Stewart.]
Anyways, I’m off to do some crafts and watch some Kardashians. Yeah. It’s my guilty pleasure. <3
