As most of you know, I love to shop the dollar store. I wrote several posts about my dollar store crafts (look under the Frugal Fun tab), and the other day I purchased some items for Valentine’ sDay. I stopped into Dollar Tree and picked up some cute toppers,
as well as two bushes of fake roses,
this cute heart bowl,
and these these adorable heart vases.
Everything shown was $1 each.
First, I cut off the flowers,
and put a stem on each place setting
then I cut the tops off from the rest of the stems and put the buds into my glass heart bowl.
Then I put the picks into the vases and put then on a cake plate with some raffia.
This is how my table will look on Valentine’s Day:
The sweetheart candies were also from the dollar store. What do you do for Valentine’s Day?
I am sharing this at I Gotta Create and here:










































I really love those! I need to make a trip to the Dollar Store!
Thank you Heather! I never leave that store empty handed. Thanks for stopping by!
So clever, simple with big impact. I’m not a shopper so my husband is the one that goes to the dollar store a lot, I guess I’ll have to go with him next time.
Thank you Sonia! Oh I would probably save more money if I shopped with my hubby.
What a pretty tablescape! Visiting from the Dollar Tree Valentine’s party.
Thank you Shenita for stopping by! I appreciate your visit and your comment.
I love this tablescape, but especially the cut roses in the glass dish–very pretty idea, Raquel!
Thank you Athena! I appreciate you stopping by!
What time is dinner? I’d love to be a guest at that table. So sweet.
LOL, I haven’t decided yet, but I will let you know
Beautiful tablescape! Gotta love the dollar store!!
Thank you! Isn’t the dollar store fun?
Looks great, certainly not from the dollar tree:) Thanks so much for sharing with the party.
Thank YOU Debbie for inspiring me – I love the dollar store and an excuse to go shopping there!
Isn’t the dollar store great? Nice job pulling it all together!
Thank you for partying with the Wildly Original Crowd.

Thank you Christina! Nice meeting you!
I am a Dollar Tree-O-holic! I love things for a $1 and they never disappoint. I started a new blog hop this Thursday and I would be honored if you would link up this creative, budget friendly table set up to “Inspiration in Progress”. http://onecreativeprocrastinatinggal.blogspot.com/2013/01/come-link-up-your-projects-1.html
Hi Amy! Thank for the info on your hop. I will check it out. Thanks for your sweet comment!
Yea, a few weeks ago you totally inspired me to go to the dollar store and pick up my food props
Oh thank you Jamie! I love to inspire! The dollar store is awesome!
Beautiful tablescape! You did a great job! Love the centerpiece!
Thank you!
{Melinda} How adorable is that? And cheap, too. You can’t beat that. Usually my Vday decorations amount to the flowers my hubby gives me in the center of my table!
Oh well real flowers are so nice! I’m not banking on that so I have this one just in case.
How you are able to put together something so adorable from the Dollar Store is beyond me! You’re so creative (and have a good eye. That’s what kills me. I never know what would look good together and how to actually put it all together). I am going to try a version of this on Valentine’s Day. My husband might faint from the surprise!
Oh you are so sweet Ashley! Thank you so much for your comment. Cheap = good :}
Completely darling and inspiring!
Have a lovely winter wonderland weekend!
Thank you Laura! You too!
Looks like a trip to the dollar store is on my To Do list for the weekend! Your table really makes me want to decorate for Valentine’s day
Hope you’re doing well, Raquel!
Thanks Megan, the dollar store makes it so easy because you do not have to spend a lot. I am doing well now. I started the year off sick but am better now. Hope your new year is going well & hope to see you again sometime.
What a cute idea!!! I am absolutely stop at the Dollar Tree I drive pass as I go home from work today. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Jay! I bet you will find some fun things.
That looks so adorable, Raquel! I love Dollar Store, but I haven’t been in awhile. I need to go check out the Valentine’s Day goodies before they are all gone
I can’t believe this is all dollar store! You’ve got some serious talent. I love the table, but I think those little vases are the best! Thanks for sharing at One Creative Weekend!
So pretty! Thanks for linking up at my Pin Me Linky Party.
Thanks Diana! Love your party!
