Dollar Store Bonanza

For Christmas this year, my sister Karla (who also got me the subscription to Domino magazine), gave me a big gift bag of individually wrapped items. She prefaced it by saying that she went into the dollar store and thought "think like Dawn." It was so fun to unwrap each item. There's floral foam, popcorn tubs, raffia, silk flowers and picks, matchboxes (for me to cover!), glue stix and glue gun refills, tape, floral wire, tealights, glue sticks, paint brushes (which I go through at a pretty quick pace, using them for glue and decoupage projects), picture matts, magnets, Spanish Moss and even a Bing Crosby Christmas CD.

All will find their place in my craft storage, and all will be put to good use in upcoming projects!
