Well, the holidays are officially over and that means.... we're moving on to Valentine's Day! LOL You may have noticed that V-Day decor is already in the stores (can you believe it?)
Valentine's Day is one of my favorite holidays mostly because of the colors involved. I love red and the good thing is... a lot of the leftover Christmas decor can be repurposed for Valentine's Day.
If you're planning something special for Valentine's Day, want to give flowers, and plan on making your own arrangement, here's an easy way to create an interesting vase from Dollar Store items.
You'll need a tall vase and one candlestick and a clear, strong adhesive.
Simply glue the two together and you have a modern vase with a bit of a fancy flair. At $2 per vase, you can make a few and use them as gifts or one on either end of a buffet table, etc.
Sidenote: make sure the glue you use is clear. The glue may overflow and seep into the candlestick. Clear glue will go unnoticed.
Final product!
wow! you are amazing. i would never think to put the two items together!

I bought both items at the Dollar Tree and I can't wait to make them.
