One thing I made was I get 2 small clear plastic Christmas bulbs, a couple of about 3 oz red plastic cups - they're small, some tiny foam balls of various colours, 2 pop can tabs and 2 small wingnuts. Glue the bottom of the bulbs to the bottoms of the cups. Remove the top of the bulbs and fill the bulbs about 1/4 of the way up with the tiny foam balls. Replace the tops. Then, glue a pop can tab to each plastic cup, bit opening facing down, and then glue a tiny wing nut on the smaller opening and glue a tiny foam ball in the center of the wing nut. Tie a ribbon on the hook of the bulb and there you have it, a small gum ball machine!

Hello I have aged the once silver bells with spray paint to add patina and made a wire garland to drape across doorways, windows or a mantle.
I made a wreath with all Dollar store items. Also, embellished a center piece and added Christmas touches around the house.
Definitely! The dollar store has so many cute things.
