Find of the Week
I’ve heard of these soap pump kits that turn ordinary mason jars into liquid soap dispensers, but this is the first time I’ve seen one in a dollar store.
Dollarama often has name-brand items in their stores that cost five bucks or less but they don’t last long. If you have a store near you, grab one of these up before they are gone.
I have some long window clings in my Christmas stash that I reuse every season. This year, I wrapped a couple of different patterns around two flameless candles.
All I did was cut them to size and add a piece of clear tape where they joined at the back of each candle. It takes no time at all, and the window clings can be easily removed when Christmas is over.

Jingle bells are a staple of Christmas and very easy to add to seasonal decor. You can use them in many different ways, filling vases, adding them to place settings, or using them in a garland for the mantel. I’m using some 3/4 inch and 2 inch bells to make door hangers. Here are two easy ways to create diy door hangers for Christmas.

Most of the forest centrepieces I’ve seen lately have used the popular green bottlebrush trees, but I had an assortment of tree-shaped ornaments and bottlebrush trees in gold that I had collected over the years. I thought they would make a lovely display piece, so I’m using them for this centrepiece.
See how to make an alternative to the green forest centrepieces popular this year by using gold bottle brush trees instead. Try whatever colour matches your own style.
