I love using Dollar Tree products creatively for an expensive look on a really tiny budget! Here are a few easy DIYS that spruced up our mantle for fall!

Dollar Tree Fall Haul and DIYs
This year was the first that I was truly disappointed in the fall section at Dollar Tree (if I’m being totally honest). It was underwhelming and stocked with droves of chitzy stuff that seemed a waste of a dollar. FEAR NOT! That makes for a great opportunity to create your own gorgeous fall decor. While standing alone these items are nothing to write home about, together with a bit of glam-factor, they can be a beautiful addition to your home (or kitchen! or hair-styling routine!)
Looking for Krylon Looking Glass Spray Paint? Yes, it’s expensive everywhere, but a little bit goes a long, long way!

Easy Dollar Tree DIY | Mirrored Planters
Like the Pottery Barn look but at a Dollar Tree price? Using just $5, beveled mini-mirrors from the dollar store, and some hot glue, you can create beautiful planters for your home!

KITCHEN CUPBOARD ORGANIZATION | Cheap and Free
Organizing the kitchen can seem like a daunting and expensive task. Here’s how, using less than $10, I organized our baking cabinet above the stove.
My biggest secrets when organizing are to…
- Re-purpose old containers. I love the pretzel pillows from my grocery store, and when they go on sale, I buy a few, and I know I can re-use the container after we eat them. TIP: To remove labels, use rubbing alcohol, nail polish remover, or vinegar. Let soak using a paper towel.
- Stick with one color scheme. When working with a tiny budget, things have a tendency to get a little Hodge-podgy. In this project I suck with black and white, so it really created a dramatic effect for little money
- Shop the Dollar Tree! The chalkboard labels, chalk pen, and containers we from the Dollar Store
- Use double-duty organizers. My “risers” in the cabinets are also helpful storage.
- Shop Garage Sales (now’s the season!). Storage containers can always be found at these. I see them at so many sales!

Teacher Work Bag and Organization
It’s back to school season! Where has the time gone? Lots of you ask to see teacher organization videos, and while I don’t have a classroom (I am a “floating” teacher), I wanted to shared with you my two favorite teacher systems for staying organized!
In this video I share with you some of my favorite back to school tips, best Dollar Tree finds for teachers, what to do with absent work (and how to keep it organized) and my teacher work-bag. These are my school staples, and you’ll see why I love them so much.
Even if you aren’t a teacher, I hope you find these tips helpful!

Dollar Tree School Supplies Haul & Giveaway!
I have been teaching for 9 years (crazy!), and this time of year always gets me so excited for getting back into the classroom.
As a teacher, I have seen (and requested students to have) a LOT of school supplies. Finding budget friendly options is sort of a past-time for me, so I thought it would be fun to share with you my favorite school supplies from Dollar Tree… and give them all away in this video! I had so much fun shopping for this.
Whether you are a home-school mom, sending your little ones off to school, or a student yourself, I hope you find some of these products/ideas helpful.

Japanese Dollar Store | Daiso Store Tour
When I was in California for VidCon and to visit family, I was eagerly anticipating dropping by Diaso– the largest Japanese Dollar Store. It’s a colorful and cheerful budget-friendly haven with a massive (and I do mean MASSIVE) selection of food, housewares, organizers, office supplies, crafting supplies, and more. To add the icing on the cake, everything in the store is just $1.50 (unless otherwise marked). Talk about complete marketing brilliance! Sold! Get me another suitcase!
After hearing from so many of you and I would be head over heels in love with this place, I took some of my vacation time to tour it. And because I’m crazy and love this sort of thing, it was a definite highlight of my time in Cali. I visited with my Aunt Karen, and she loved it just as much as I did. I feel like there were so many items I didn’t get the chance to film, but there were lots of highlights (namely the incredible organizing sections) that made this trip warrant at 8 minute + video. Hold on to your hats and don’t look away…or you might miss something. 😉
If you are looking for a Daiso near you, you can check out their website. They have locations in California, Washington, (and recently, Texas) in the US. But they are also in Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia and lots of other countries as well.
I’m definitely team “bring Diaso to the East Coast.” Who’s with me?

Dollar Spot at Target | Toddler Haul
Every couple of months I pick up a few inexpensive finds from the Dollar Tree and/or the Dollar Spot at Target. Carson doesn’t go to day care yet, so all learning takes place at home. Very inexpensively you really can find a lot of great resources for keeping busy and learning! Here are a few favorite finds and how I store our learning activities. Simple and effective.
P.S. If you are a teacher, you need to get to the Dollar Spot now! There are some classroom resources!
