Repurpose Things

A Kmart close to my work was going out of business so for many weeks I would go over and browse through things to see if I could find any great bargains for the party and I did.  In my plan I had decided to use my black table clothes and I wanted a red table runner.  I decided to get red table clothes from the Kmart at 50% off and cut them into table runners.  I was able to get three table runners out of each table cloth.  I used permanent hemming tape to hem the sides of the runner.  Then I looked at it and thought it looked a little boring so I started adding white polka dots to the runner but then decided that it looked more Minnie Mouse than Mickey so I got a smaller dot sponge and added ears to the dots to make Mickey heads.  Love the look.
