Today I found:
Baker's twine (packs of 3 different colored rolls/pack)
Laser cut glitter stickers (I chose the pack that has aqua, pink, and orange deer, squirrels, mushrooms, porcupines, foxes, butterflies. There were also birthday packs w/ cakes etc, & a third pack with black & pink skulls and other "rock alternative" kind of embellies)
And I bought what looks like knock-off enamel dots. I bought the pack the white/black/gray pack, though they had other colors, like shades of pinks. There are 138 pieces in each pack. (I don't know if they will be just like enamel dots, but at a buck a pack, I can try them. I haven't tried real enamel dots yet because of the cost.)
I took pics and tried to add them as an attachment, but it says the pics are too big (and I don't know how to make them smaller). If anyone wants pics of these things, message me, and I can email them to you.

Oh, and I almost forgot.
I bought GRUMPY CAT stickers!!! In the sticker machine at the front of the store. (yes, I'm excited. My dd has a grumpy cat shirt and I have the perfect pic to scrap with the stickers.)

How fun. I bought some washi there a while ago and well it wasn't anything like normal washi tape lol. I would have bought the bakers twine though.

Thanks for sharing...liking the enamel dots. I always want these but can't bring myself to pay for them as they seem pretty expensive.

I'm going there tomorrow!
I have bought washi tape from the $$ tree and thought it was comparable to other washi.

I went tonight. The bakers twine was nice and they had three different packs. I bought Valentine's Day flair. They had two different styles. They were attached to valentines.

Thanks for sharing... I want to go and look for these things at my Dollar Tree, But I dont usually find much scrappy stuff there. Does anyone else's Dollar Tree always looking like they just had a going out of business sale? Or Ransacked? Ours is always crazy trashed looking and it is so hard to find stuff. Wondering if it is this store, the manager or what!

Wondering if it is this store, the manager or what! There are four stores that I can get to fairly easily (one by foot even). Two look nice - they are in malls. Two look like you've described. Absolutely ransacked. Those are very hit or miss stores. |

Finally on a computer so I can share the photos from my blog. Here are the "enamel dots' from Dollar Tree:   I've since added a pic of the enamel dots from the $1.50 bin at Michaels, too. There's a set with purples that is not included below:  |

Wondering if it is this store, the manager or what! Yes, my closest Dollar Tree looks that way. It is in a cruddy (small) strip mall and the inside of the store looks as bad as the outside. I think the management doesn't care. The store by my mom is in a much better strip mall and it is always nice. I like the color combination of the dots from Michaels. |

I finally got to $$ Tree today. I bought 2 rolls of Washi(only 2 since I bought 5 rolls at Target last night!!) and some stickers. No enamel dots or baker's twine to be found(although I did get twine at Target, too).
