Valentine's Day {Easy Teacher Gift}

Hello loves!
On Friday I shared some frugal and fabulous finds.  If you missed that post, you can check it out HERE!  I featured some adorable ceramic canisters, just like the ones that Anthropologie sells...only these are a fraction of the price!  I picked up a few to keep and a few to give as gifts.

Check out all these fun colors...

I grabbed a large, red one to use as a teacher gift for Valentine's day. I used a chalk pen to write the teacher's name on it and filled it with her favorite candy....

I used a clear bag, a chalkboard gift tag (left over from Christmas from the dollar spot at Target) and some twine to wrap it all up....

I think it turned out really cute!  These would make great birthday, Christmas, housewarming and hostess gifts as well! The possibilities are endless...I think I am going to go grab a few more before they are all gone!

Hope you have a fabulous Valentine's day! XOXO

Frugal Finds Friday

Welcome to Frugal Finds Friday....

Every Friday I will highlight some awesome items that don't break the bank!  This week all my frugal finds were found at one store...one that you might not usually go to for home decor!  I walked into Michael's to get my daughter a few things for Valentine's day and got giddy when I saw what they had....lamps, garden stools, ottomans, accent tables, throw pillows, kitchen decor and even a few mirrors!  I came home with only a few things, but will be going back soon!  The best part....it is all 40% off and  they have a 20% off total purchase coupon on their website!

Look at these goodies!!

Loving these colors!  A few things that caught my eye: decorative measuring spoons, large colored measuring cups, bright colored bottles, and canisters....

 

Can we talk berry baskets again (you know I love these things)?  These were between $3 and $5!! Seriously, you cannot beat that price!  And these colors....they remind me of the Anthropologie version, only these are a fraction of the price!  Notice the adorable market baskets on the bottom shelf...the possibilities are endless for these!

Another Anthro look-a-like...chalkboard labeled jars in several colors! I bought a red lidded one for my daughter's teacher for Valentine's day! Just add her favorite candy and done....super cute and so easy!

 

Can we talk topiaries and garden decor....yep, they have that too!

Look at the accent ottomans, accent tables, throw pillows and garden stools...all 40% off!

 

Well done, Michael's, well done! 

So what did I end up with.....

 

The large and small chalkboard canisters with "mint" colored lids! They look great on my breakfast nook shelves!  I am sure I will go back for more goodies!

Have a great weekend!!
