Alter it Yourself!


Last year (funny to say that since it was only 2 weeks ago that it was 2011) I altered a globe I got on clearance at Target and posted about it on my blog HERE.


Well, I was in Target on Friday and they have a similar globe, just in a different color scheme, on sale. It is full price, $24.99, on sale this week for $20 versus the clearance price I got of $6.24, but you'd be hard pressed to find as cute of a globe for any less that $25 anywhere else. I know because I have been looking for more of them to alter since I did the first one!


So get them while you can :) I only saw 2 on the shelf at this Target so it doesn't look like they have too many available. If you do get a globe and alter it, I would love love love to see pics!! Please share the link on my Facebook Page so I can pin your project!




And, I have a winner! On Sunday I posted a giveaway for a ticket to the LIVE from CHA event with Charity Wings. The lucky winner is…………………………
