bringing a lil luck to the living room!

So yesterday morning I was getting bored so I decided to go hit up a few of the dollar store around town! A great way to pass the time, if you ask me! I found a few things for school, and a few things I'm going to give Chalon for his birthday, but the things I was most excited about are these:

A vase, can of spray paint, and frame... each were a dollar. And they were also my inspiration for a little St. Patrick's day decorating!

Don't they look fancy in greenish blue?

I know my spray painting skills could use some help but I still think they turned out alright!

After I painted those, I used a lil spray glue and glitter to add some sparkle to shamrocks I printed off.


It took all of about ten minutes to create 10 little sparklin' shamrocks!

I hung them on my ornament tree... except for the one that I framed in my new fancy frame!

I'm quite pleased with the way my $3 decor turned out!
