Don't You Just Love the Dollar Store?



Okay - I admit it -  I really like the Dollar Store.  Every time I go in I find something I can use to create with.  These tags are an excellent example of that. The yellow and green centers on two of the tags are lucite buttons I found at the dollar store.  When I saw them, I just knew they would be great to use as the center of a flower.  I would love it if they were glass and vintage, but these have a nice look to them and will do nicely until I do find some lovely vintage glass buttons.  


I found the crepe paper at Hobby Lobby. Three rolls for $1 which is very reasonable. The cashier told me that this item will be increasing in price (2 rolls for $1). Perhaps I should have purchased more!

The tags will go on packaging for birthday presents. Now I need to make the cards and buy the presents!
