I think I need a disclaimer for this week's Target Tuesday. You see, I went to Target three (yes, three!) times over the past week in search of something fabulous to share with you and, each time, I was disappointed. There was just nothing to get excited about. I suspect that a bad economy is to blame, but Target is just not getting in new shipments and collections like they used to. I remember the good old days (like last year!), when I would find something new every time I went there - and believe me, that was a frequent occurrence. So, that said, I hope you won't be too terribly disappointed by this week's Target find...
These fun swirled marshmallow pops were just being put out for Valentine's Day. They're $1.99 each and fairly substantial in size. I think I bought comparable ones for the girls at Disney for about $7! They are super cute and the colors are very pretty. I guess the theme for the week will just have to be marshmallows! I decided these would make great party favors, but I wanted to dress them up a bit. The first thing I did was remove the "Target" packaging and transfer them to clear cellophane bags.
Better already, right? Next, I simply added some ribbon, millinery flowers, and a vintage wallpaper heart.
So, not my best, but I am hopeful that Target will come through for me in the future. If not, I may have to resort to "HomeGoods Thursdays"!
Sweet idea. Looks festive and yummy. Great job. I really enjoyed.

It's been a marshmallow couple of days for you! These turned out so much prettier than with the original wrapper. I would take one! ~Lori
