I use a curtain rod to hang the Christmas stockings from the fireplace mantel. It will handle more weight then the stocking holders do and its easy to slide the stockings to the side when we light a fire.

Streamers and pom poms as party decorations, purchased at the Dollar Tree.
Hanging Party Decorations at Dollar TreeIf you need affordable party hanging decorations, I would highly recommend Dollar Tree. especially if you're looking for the trendy tissue pom poms. You get 2 count and a generous size, 12" for only $1, that is just 50 cents each. There's a good amount of colors to choose from: magenta, blue, yellow, red, black and white. These decorations would be perfect for bridal parties, bachelorette parties, weddings, engagement parties, birthday, Valentine's Day, Christmas, essentially any party!

A Valentine's day gift with a painted rock and other treats.
Sweet Garden Decor Valentine's GiftThe weather has been so delightful lately. I decided to pair a traditional Valentine's treat with a pretty spring souvenir, and I came up with this. The rock with the heart on it is one I made. The other is a decoration I purchased for a dollar at the Dollar General store.

Candle Safety - several candles on top of a dresser
Candle SafetyFlickering candles and fragrant candles are a delightful experience at any event. To insure that all candles are lit and extinguished, as each candle is lit, begin to count the number of candles that are lit, write the number of lit candles on a sticky note and post that note in a prominent place.

A heart shaped butterscotch pudding dessert, on a plate.
Valentine's Day on a Shoestring BudgetDue to unforeseen circumstances, my budget for this year's Valentine's Day will be very small. I will not be able to afford expensive food or a lavish dessert, but that does not mean that I want to skimp on the celebrations.

A datebook that can be used as a journal.
Gratitude Journal from DatebookA student gave me this lovely datebook for Christmas. Since it has so much space to write, I decided to use it as this year's gratitude journal. The mind can be trained to think positively or negatively. Every day we are on Earth is a celebration, don't you think?
