Use Gift Bags For Cute Wall Art

My son loves Roy Rogers, and I've looked at prints and posters to decorate his room with, but most are a little pricey for a momma on a budget. While I was walking through the dollar store the other day, I noticed a gift bag that just happened to have a cute, good-sized tinted photo of Roy Rogers and Trigger, ONE ON EACH SIDE. I cut them out and framed them in dollar store frames. Two framed pics for $3.00--instead of $30.00.

So--look over those cheap but cute giftbags and grab your scissors! Butcher a bag!

Speaking of uses for gift bags, I wanted to cover an old book with something pretty. Using a gift bag came to mind. I found a floral one, that I could cut a front and back cover. It worked out beautifully!
