99 Cents= 2 for me...1 for YOU!!!

Yesterday I ran to the Dollar Store to pick up some supplies for the preschool that I teach & I saw this little stack of Alphabet stickers...

Thought they were cute, so I grabbed One.


Today I decided I wanted to put that pack of stickers to use, so I went & dug out these two 11x14 frames, one for ABC's & one for 123's...
(my mother-in-law was getting rid of a bunch of frames a couple years ago & I took them all & they have come in handy for several different projects. Thanks Donna!)
Please excuse the dust...

I cut out the stickers & laid them out to see what look I wanted for the ABC's...

Then I ran outside & put a coat of RED spray paint on the frames.
While they were drying, I came back in & went to work.


I just stuck the stickers DIRECTLY on the cardboard insert that was already in the frames...
Easy Peasy!

Laid out the Alphabet letters sort of randomly, until I achieved a look I liked...

And now I have 2 NEW CUTE pieces of art in our playroom...

Total Project Cost for BOTH pieces of "Art" = .99 Cents


Can't beat that!!!




Oh wait! I actually got THREE pieces of Art for the .99cents!

I decided to go ahead & make the other ABC one that I had laid out & I don't need TWO!!!



Who wants it???


You may not have an "Alphabet Themed" playroom like I do, but I think it would go great in a little boy or girl's room and it would make a great gift for your child's teacher at the end of this school year!

I've never done a craft giveaway on here, but my favorite thing about making crafts
is giving them away
,
so why not?!

Leave a comment if you want it & I will randomly select a winner on February 28th...ending the month with my 1st giveaway! :)


Your chances are good, since there are only a select few that care to check up on what I have been craftifying lately...good luck!!
