The Most Wonderful Time of the Year...Its on Its Way!



I'm so stinking excited about Christmas this year. It will be the LAST year in our house in Virginia and its going to be an unusually busy season for us! So, I'm going to start pulling out Christmas stuff this weekend. Yep...THIS WEEKEND!

A few days ago, Belle and I hit The Dollar Tree. I just love The Dollar Tree! One of the things that I like best about it is that the owners are from this neck of the woods. And, the wifey went to Longwood...my Alma Mater! A few years ago, they decided to promote higher education and donated $3 MILLION to my college...so yes, I happily give back to them! It has been hit or miss for me in recent years for Christmas decor. Well, can I tell you that its not the case this year. I think I could spend $50 on new Christmas decor. They also have an awesome new website where you can order in bulk online...too cool!

Here are a few of my favorites...and trust me, this is just a drop in the bucket!


They also had large felt ornaments and snowflakes...the likes of which I've already seen at Target for much more!




               I love these little cuties!  I think I need a few red ones for my hutch!  They also had some mirrored ones!  Yes! Mirrored ones!!  SO stinking cute!



 
I can just see these velvet stockings altered to be just ADORABLE!
 
I have a special project lined up for some tinsel.  I can't wait to show you! 
 
 You can buy these everywhere it seems, but I just loved TDT's colors this year...and not to mention they are a bit cheaper than the ones at Walmart and Target. 
 
Mirrored ball ornaments!  LOVE 'EM!


 
I just love the shape of these ornaments....and I need some new GREEN ornaments for my red, white and green tree.  

Speaking of my red white and green tree...I have a major craft that has been a year in the making (so what if I took 10 months off from them?) to show you very soon.  I have 3 left to complete...almost there!

  1. I love the snowflakes! I might have to run over there today. It makes me feel better about TDT because they took over our sweet little neighborhood dollar store a couple years ago and I was so sad. lol

    ALSO, I cannot get into your blog still. I think I gave you the wrong email addy...it is: beccadaniellephotography@gmail.com or beccadanielle@ymail.com I think I told you @gmail.com oops!

  2. Could you delete my earlier comment after you get my email addy's?

    I love the snowflakes! Are they glittered already? Hard to tell from the picture. I might have to run over there today. It makes me feel better about TDT because they took over our sweet little neighborhood dollar store a couple years ago and I was so sad. lol
