DYI - Valentine Wreath "'Dollar Tree" make over

Using a grapevine wreath I had, I added some of the Black and White Checked material and thin red ribbon and wrapped around the grapevine wreath. 
Next I added some of the little wooden hearts that I bought at "The Dollar Tree" that were a welcome sign and chalk painted white

and also added the letters to spell the word love from the yard of  black and white checked fabric, using stencils I had in my craft supply box.

I used wide popsicle stick from Walmart and laid out the letter heart out and glued to popsicle stick, then attached it to the ribbon on the grapevine wreath to get a 

I added a bow made from the 2 inch wired burlap ribbon from "The Dollar Tree "store and a 2 inch strip of the black and white checked fabric.  I think I should have added another black and white checked ribbon on top of the burlap bow.

I hope I gave you some decor  ideas to implement into your home decor for February.

Have a Wonderful Day!

Race Day

I always try to find a reason to have a little get together with friends to enjoy good food and games. Opening day of NASCAR RACING sounded like one of those times.  To start off, I  was thinking nacho as main dish.

a bag of tortillas chips 1 pound of ground beef cooked add a taco season packet and a two 16 oz. bags of shredded cheddar cheese and another of nacho cheese mix.  Top with sliced black olives and chopped onion.

Bake at 375 for about 15 minutes.  Add topping of your choice, my were sour cream, fresh salsa, and guacamole. It turned out delicious

And sit back and watch the Daytona 500 and snack out. Can't make a Sunday afternoon any better.

Have a Great Day!
