Target Appreciation Post! February 2016

Love is in the air and all over Target's dollar section shelves! I walked in and got heart eyes for all the adorable Valentines Day finds that were in the dollar section. The struggle was real not to buy EVERYTHING!

I bought this super cute 2016 calendar. I like it a lot because it's on thicker paper and it pretty sturdy. I bought plastic milk bottles with the straws for $3. I have no idea when I will use them, but they are so freakin cute I had to. I got a jar with a heart on it that I also believe was $3. It's currently collecting change on top of my dresser. The LOVE window cling with the balloons will look adorable on the front windows of my classroom at work, and also bought the heart stickers for my kiddos at work to do for our Valentines Day Party we are having. There was so much more I wanted but I tried to restrain myself.

In the party section they have DIY tassel garland kits that I snatched up real quick. I've made tassel garlands before out of tissue paper, but it is SO much faster and easier with pre-cut tissue paper. They look so festive at parties or to just hang up in your room, and it's the perfect pop of color. This was the only color scheme I saw there, so I'm hoping they make more with different colored tassels.

Have you stocked up on Valentines Day decorations yet?

Target Appreciation Post! 1/23/15

Hola my darlings! I'M ALIVE after being super sick for almost a full week. Oh the perks of being a preschool teacher. Well before I got sick I managed to head out to my favorite store and buy a couple of goodies! Check out the haul!

First I picked up the e.l.f. cream eyeliner. I have to say this is one of my favorite eyeliners. It goes on really smooth, and the little brush that comes with it makes it very easy to get a winged look. The only downside is  I get very oily eyelids and it does smudge on me. Using a lid primer does help though!

 My favorite section at Target is the under $20 gift section. They always have the most random things there. I saw this notepad and HAD to get it! Too freakin cute right?!?! The cheese is sticky notes and the cat and mouse are regular pads. They are almost too cute to use! 

 Next I got this e.l.f. brush set on sale in the beauty section. I believe it came with 10 brushes from a Christmas gift set. I'm always looking for brushes so I thought it would be a good buy! I want to say they were only like $6! And I bought the holder from the dollar section. It's my favorite color, so I had to!

 And my last purchase was this chalk board from the dollar section as well! (it was $3 though) Not really sure how many uses I'll get out of it, but it is very cute. When buying inexpensive chalk boards, it's best to use a chalkboard marker instead of regular chalk. It doesn't take as much finish off the board when cleaning! Now I gotta figure out something cute to write on it...

What have you bought from Target recently?

Target Appreciation Post!

This weekend on a boring Saturday afternoon, I just so happened to stroll into Target, because I realized I haven't walked around my favorite store in a while. I walk in and see Christmas EVERYWHERE! In the dollar section, in the women's clothes section, in the men's clothes section, in its own Christmas section!!! I spent a good almost 2 hours just walking around in everything Christmas. I held back in buying a lot, but I did have to splurge and buy myself some Christmas goodies!

I bought Ghirardelli peppermint hot chocolate, men's skull socks from the dollar section, a kitty Christmas sweatshirt from the men's section, and the "Merry" banner. I also bought a banner that says "fa la la la la" but I forgot to put it in the picture (oops).

Are you buying Christmas stuff yet??

Weekly Target Appreciation Post

Ok friends, I have a confession...I'm obsessed with Target. Well, I guess you already knew that...but saying it out loud is the first step to recovery right?

I try to go to Target at least once a week. Shopping at Target after a long day of work with a Starbucks in hand can cure just about any problem...I'm sure of it. On these weekly Target trips I think, ponder, and retail therapy myself into a happy Target drunkenness. I head home with a bag filled with things I don't need and a huge smile on my face. (wow I really do have a problem) Well friends, I think this will be my first Target Appreciation Post where I will list all the wonderful magical things I bought at Target for the week. I'm actually quite proud and only bought 2 items, but might I say they both are pretty great.

First up, a doughnut sweater. I mean...why wouldn't you want a doughnut sweater? This was priced at $22.99

The other item...or should I say items...I bought were mini party hats from the Oh Joy! collection. ($5 for a pack of 8 hats) They are so cute and fit perfectly on my little head. Be ready friends, on my next birthday I'm breaking these suckers out for a night on the town! 

That's all for this week! Let me know if you like my Weekly Target Appreciation Posts...or if I should actually find something interesting to blog about.

Toodles!
