It's been a while since I have posted anything but this morning while I was in Walmart I ventured over into the Christmas decorations. Listen: It's not good for a loose cannon to be in this department with no time restraints. Normally when I shop at "Wally World" I just run in, get groceries and run out.
But today I had way too much time on my hands. I strolled up and down the aisles and I saw lots of cute things. Then I landed in the baking area and justified getting a few Christmas items. One of the things I got was a pack of red and green striped plastic straws.
Those straws reminded me I had a cute little pottery jar I had put straws in before so decided why not spend $1.98 and brighten up the kitchen counter where there isn't much space. Now mind you we haven't decorated for Christmas yet but everywhere you go the music is on and the decorations are as thick as fleas on a dog. No way you can stay in there very long and not come out singing Have a Holly Jolly Christmas. LOL!!
Now when I got home and gathered up everything to make this little holiday cheer it only took a minute. If you have a small vase or a mason jar you could use it. Any red or green ribbon would work to tie around your straw holder. The best thing about this decoration is you can use it... no waste.
I hope ya'll stay "Thrifty" this week and in the weeks to come.
