♥St. Patrick's Day For Less

Ever since I went to Savannah, GA for their St. Patrick's Day festivities, I have LOVED this lucky holiday!  This year, I designed a brand new LOTS OF LUCK party collection and wanted to set up a simple food table for a photo shoot.  However, I didn't want to spend a lot of mulah, so here's how I did it...



I used a white tablecloth I already had, and draped a green & white scarf down the center.  I used my two square Pampered Chef trays and covered them in my printable paper. 

I strung some festive ribbon through my cake stand and dressed up my rainbow cupcakes (from Target) with my toppers and wrappers.

I hung the banner over the table with glue dots.  I found the rainbow pinwheels at Dollar Tree and anchored them in Dollar Tree green pots with floral foam covered with green glass stones.  For some height, I added a plain white box that I already had to perch my colorful candy jar.  

I taped wooden skewers to the back of my moustache & bowtie photo props for an easy photo idea.

I wrapped my water bottles with my water bottle labels and they look brand new.

So, here's a breakdown of how much it cost me to put this table together...
❃ Cupcakes............Target for $3.50
❃ Cookies...............Dollar Tree for $2.00
❃ Candy.................Dollar Tree for $3.00
❃ Green Scarf.........Dollar Tree for $1.00
❃ Green Pots...........Dollar Tree for $2.00
❃ Pinwheels............Dollar Tree for $2.00

❃ TOTAL.......................................$13.50 (Pretty good, right?)
