Archive for January, 2012

So, yesterday afternoon I needed to run to Michaels Art and Crafts store for some sealer and to price out some other items I was looking for.  Well my local store usually has bins of clearance items or items on special out front on the sidewalk and they did yesterday as well. They had a bin called Grab Bag, every bag was $2.00 each.  So…this is what I bought for $8.00 (sorry couldn’t stop at one bag lol)

Yup for $8.00 I received tons of silk flowers (20 -27 stems of flowers in each bag), rolls and rolls of ribbon,  one bag had the 3 baskets which one basket retailed for $16.99!

The large containers were in a separate bag for $2.00 which I plan on painting a design on the outside before filling it with flowers. I really liked the rough exterior of them will really make the design I paint stand out.

It would really be worth the trip if you have a Michaels near you to see if they have the $2.00 grab bag at your location. I have some great plans for my items!

 

Have a great day!

I have added a beautiful ceramic Shell Candy Dish to my catalog to start off the New Year from Donna’s Mailboxes and More.

I have finished this piece with a grey glaze on the outside of the shell and inside is finished with a pale pink food safe glaze.

This Shell Dish measures aprox. 7″ long x 8 1/2″ wide and is really beautifully detailed.
