Find of the Month

Blue and white dinnerware is back in style. I found dinner plates in this and another pattern at Dollarama. Even if you don’t want a whole place setting, hanging decorative plates of the wall is a great way to fill the space and decorate inexpensively.

Quick Tip

It’s so easy to add greenery to your home, without a lot of bother. I used a plastic dish garden, filled it with river rocks and planted faux succulents in them. Then I just added a bit of reindeer moss.

This and dozens more ideas are showcased in my newest book, 101 Quick Tips for Home Decor, which is now available on Amazon. These quick and easy do-it-yourself ideas take next to no time to complete.

For me, a family get-together isn’t complete without party favours. At this writing, I was in the process of packing up to move to another apartment, so I didn’t have much time to think about what I could put together in a hurry. My daughter was hosting, so I didn’t have to worry about preparing the meal, but I still always like to take party favours.

While browsing the candy aisle at my local dollar store, I came across the three-pack Ferrero Rocher and thought I could turn them into mini pumpkins. It was an inexpensive idea that turned out pretty cute. Best of all, I already had everything I needed at home to complete the idea.
