While saving money isn’t specifically one of my New Year’s Resolutions (let’s be honest I have no resolutions, just a big long 2011 to do list!), it’s always a plus.
So if you have to sock away your pennies and dimes why not have something fabulous (that only costs pennies and dimes) to hold your savings!
On a recent Dollar Tree outing, I spotted these simple ceramic piggy banks. Due to my recent obsession with all things Martha Stewart glitter I knew exactly what I wanted to do to these piggies to make them a good thing!
The simple cast of characters. DT Piggy, MS glitter and Mod Podge.
Just a thin layer of Mod Podge and a heavy sprinkling of MS Blue Sapphire glitter and I was ready start feeding this little piggy!
Oh, we're halfway there!
This is definitely a pig that Charlotte would be proud of!
Ta-da! Heather's in White and mine in Blue!
Here's the white piggy in his new home. Addie B's bookcase.
The Copy Cat Rundown:
Total Time: About 30 minutes. It’s best to cover small spots of the pig in Mod Podge and glitter and allow to completely dry!
Total Cost: $1 for piggy bank. Already had glitter, Mod Podge and brushes!
Would we do this again? Yep! This would be an awesome addition to any household in the New Year!

Dontcha just love MS glitter? Great job!
