Dollar Dance
Sometimes a girl just needs a little pick me up to make her smile! Whether it be a new shirt or going out for a manicure we all love to treat ourselves.
I know we are all on a budget these days so I must share my latest little gift to myself. Yesterday I made an impulse purchase at Michaels.
The dollar section gets me every time! Yesterday it was full of yellows and grays with stripes and polka dots galore. They had stylish ribbon with a chain link pattern plus chic knobs that could be used on an old dresser or placed on a wall to hang jewelry.
I went home with these:
I use pencils for my floor plans, which are done by hand so these pencils will make me feel a bit more stylish while I do them.
Any other great inexpensive treats that you want to share with all?

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
Oh, I love the dollar stops at Michaels and Target.
Target has great little buckets to store stuff in. As a mom, they work with kids stuff, crayons, glue. I would think they'd work the same for a designer since you use lots of different pieces to create.
I do NEED those gray and white striped pencils….
oh pretty I wish we had Michaels and Target
those pencils make me so happy!! I have got to get some for stocking stuffers for my sisters. thanks for the tip!!
3 for 5 dollars daffodil bouquets at whole foods and 5 dollar hanging boston ferns at lowes. word.
really cute pencils, good pick from the dollar store.
Cute, cute pencils! Yay for the dollar section.
I hit up the same section when I was there on Tuesday!! I loved all that grey and yellow stuff
Love the pencils! I'm always troving the dollar bins at Target myself, but I see I need to hit up Michael's!
…Just indulged in a set of Jonathan Adler post-it notes. More than a $, but still pretty cheap considering how adorable they are!
The dollar bins at Michaels have been a treasure trove lately, my sister always sends me fun treats from her local Michaels!
Those pencils are a great score!
What a coincidence that you would blog this, I just hit up these same bins! I hardly ever shop at Michaels, but I'm so glad I did this week because our wedding colours are grey and yellow. I bought a huge stack of blank cards to use as 'thank you' cards for under $25. I'll blog about them soon!
Thanks for posting! I'm doing a grey/yellow party in a month, so I'm going to sneak over tomorrow and load up on fun stuff!
I'll have to grab some of those pencils, they are a perfect prize for our Easter bingo game.
Those pencils would look great in my office (I never use them, but what does that matter?!).
I've also found some great notecards in the dollar bins there lately, and a few weeks ago, I got a stamp with my initial on it.
I think a cup full of sharpened pencils looks so good on a desk.
I love the dollar section at Michaels, it's so fun!
I love the dollar store for when I am doing a party for my daughter. Those pencils are adorable!
I love multiples of anything. When something is just $1, you can snap up an armful and not feel guilty. Everything is more interesting when done en masse. I could see an entire glass apothecary jar filled with those pencils.
so tempting! haha They're chic pencils!
So great! I will have to check out my local store and see what knobs they have! Thanks for sharing!

I LOVE the dollar section at Michaels and Craft warehouse! I find all sorts of amazing things without breaking the bank!
I'm a sucker for that dollar section at Michael's too. Last month it was filled with Pink Damask goodies and I, of course, couldn't leave the store without a few things.

Someone just e-mailed me they saw these and then came back and sent me to you! Love these!
I love those pencils! And I actually have to go to Michaels tomorrow anyway. 🙂
