UNIQUE CREATIONS FROM HULA HOOPS

 

The video compilation below from Hometalk has a compilation of 14 unexpected projects to make using Hula hoops.

By picking up some Hula hoops from the Dollar Tree as they are currently carrying you could make a display like the above for a birthday or wedding or a Dyson sphere industrial-looking decoration for your home.

Although my favorite is the modern-looking plant holder

Dollar Tree Halloween - Halloween Items only $1

Hello and welcome to Day 13 of Countdown to Halloween. Today's offering is a sample of things for Halloween you might find for sale at your local Dollar Tree for $1; here is a sampling of what I found at mine:

They have retro-vintage look window clings, cheesecloth mesh and plastic chains to add a spooky ambiance.  This is the first year I have seen them I have seen the normal looking portraits that turn creepy depending on what angle you look at them from.

They also have colorful Halloween themed wreaths to the right.

On the top shelf are Haunted Houses and pumpkin trinket boxes and pumpkin gift boxes with handles.  They all have plastic skull drinkware and ghost and pumpkin tumblers.  They also have plastic bowls and trays on the bottom shelf and all sorts of fun little plastic items like eyeballs and insects.

Glow sticks and pumpkin and ghost-themed candy buckets.

Spider themed items

Halloween buckets, ribbons, glow stick and garland

A spider decoration and some DIY kits.

Spray for hair, makeup, Halloween bags and tableware.  I picked up some good sized black bowls from the bottom shelf on the left at 2 for $1.

$1 costume additives

$1 capes, hair head bands, hats and other items.

$1 Knights shield, and accessories.
