Mini Picket Fence Hanging Decoration Video tutorial






Materials Needed

One wooden fence decoration- purchased at Dollar Tree

Mod Podge

One decorative napkin-purchased one pack at Dollar Tree

Paint- I'm using chalk paint.-White and Misty pink

One mini watering can decoration-I found this in the gardening section at Dollar Tree

One paint brush

Floral

Hot glue 

Scissors

One pencil for tracing

Floral snips

Optional- butterfly sticker

Step 1: Adding paint to the mini fence



Start off by, applying a layer of white chalk paint onto your picket fence. You can also apply the white chalk paint to the spaces between the pickets using a smaller paintbrush. Set it aside, and allow it to dry.

Step 2: Tracing, cutting, and adding the decorative napkin


Take your napkin, and remove the second layer. For this project, you will only want the top layer of your napkin. Once you have done so, take your napkin, and lay it out flat. Next, take your picket fence, and lay it on top of your napkin. Using your pencil begin to trace out each picket.

After you have traced out your pickets, take your scissors, and begin to cut the traced pickets out. Cut each picket out, and set it aside.



Using your Mod Podge, begin to apply some Mod Podge over each picket. 

Next, take the napkin pieces you had previously cut, and start to add them on top of the Mod Podge. Using your fingers, gently press them down, and remove any wrinkles, and lines.

Take your Mod Podge, apply a thin layer over each napkin piece, and picket. Once you have done this step, you can use a heat gun, or blow dryer to help with the drying. Using a smaller paint brush, take a little Mod Podge, go between each picket, and apply it to sections that may need it. 

Step 3: Adding paint to the mini watering can 


After, take your watering can decoration and apply your paint onto it. If you want to keep the original color on the watering can, you can skip this step. 

Using your hot glue, apply a small amount onto the back of your watering can decoration, and add it to the right side of your picket fence.

Step 4: Cutting and adding flowers to the mini fence



Next, take your floral, and begin to cut them to size using your floral snips. 

Once you have cut your floral, take each piece and glue them onto the left side of your picket fence decoration. 

The last step is optional, but you can add a little butterfly sticker onto the corner of your watering can decoration. 


Your simple mini picket fence decoration is now complete! Did you enjoy this simple craft? Would you like to see more Mod Podge crafts? I'd love to hear from you all.

  8. I just commented on the bird house post and then saw this one. I again love the use of the floral napkin. Whoever figured out that napkins could be used as easy backgrounds for crafts is my favorite person. There are so many floral and patterned napkins! It is a never ending crafters dream :)

Easy Steps to Create a Cozy Autumn Tablescape at Home

Hello everyone! I’m excited that you decided to visit the blog today. I wanted to share how to create a cozy autumn tablescape at home. My goal was to design something warm and inviting, as our table is a space where we share conversations, drink coffee, tackle homework, and simply enjoy each other’s company.  I typically don’t go all out when decorating my dining table, but I wanted to show you how I styled it using decor pieces I already had. I would love for you to join me in this decorating adventure! Watch the video tutorial Create a Cozy Autumn Tablescape at Home Items I'm adding to my table:  -White tablecloth runner - Battery-operated leaf lights  - Reusing glass jars  - Mini pumpkins and other fall decorations  - Small "Hello Fall" sign  - Faux flowers I began by spreading my white tablecloth down the center of the table. Around Halloween, I purchased this tablecloth a few years ago at my local Walmart. After laying it out, I realized that I could ...

How I Refreshed an Old Garden Statue with Paint (Easy Patio DIY)

This charming toad perched on his toadstool has been a beloved part of our patio for years, enduring the passage of time while gradually succumbing to the effects of sun and weather. With each season, he has faded a little more, losing some of his vibrant colors and details. Rather than allowing him to blend into the background and become just another forgotten decoration, I decided it was time to breathe new life into him.  Watch the Video Tutorial I shared the whole process in a quick YouTube Shorts video called “Watch Me Refresh This Old Garden Statue.” It’s a simple before‑and‑after, but such a satisfying one.  Materials I Used Garden statue (mine is a toad on a toadstool) Sandpaper Acrylic paints Small detail brushes Mod Podge (for sealing and protection) Sanding and Painting I began by gently sanding the statue to smooth out the chipped and faded paint. It only takes a few minutes, but it makes such a difference. Once the surface felt ready, I brought out my a...

Three Easy Candle Jar Ideas for Cozy Porch Décor

I've always thought there was something so comforting about soft candlelight, especially when it’s paired with a few simple faux florals and greenery. Today, I’m sharing a sweet little project in which I decorated a glass jar in three different ways. Each jar has its own personality, glow, and gentle charm. These pieces are perfect for porch décor, but they work beautifully anywhere you want to add a touch of warmth. I love projects like this—simple materials, quiet moments, and a finished piece that feels peaceful and handmade. Watch the Video Tutorial Materials I Used Clear glass jar Battery‑operated candle Faux string of pearls Faux succulents Faux vine Bright pink faux flowers (tops removed from stems) Yellow faux flowers Faux foliage Optional: woven mat or tray for display Jar 1: Succulents & String of Pearls For the first jar, I wanted something earthy and calming. I placed a faux string of pearls inside the jar and let it settle naturally. Around it, I tucked in a few fa...

How to Make Easy Beaded Wine Glass Charms

 I love creating small, simple crafts that add a personal touch to gatherings, and these wine glass charms were such a fun project. They’re easy to make, customizable, and perfect for parties, holidays, or even a cozy night in with friends. Each charm slips right onto the stem of a wine glass, making it easy for everyone to keep track of their drink. These charms come together quickly using beads, wire rings, and small metal pendants. You can mix and match colors and charms to fit any theme, and each one turns out a little different — which is part of the fun. Watch the video tutorial Materials Here’s what I used to make my wine glass charms: Wire rings Beads Small metal charms Jewelry pliers If your wire rings need trimming, use wire cutters—mine didn’t, so I didn’t need them for this project.  Choose your beads and charms Pick out the colors and shapes you want to use. I chose soft pinks, purples, and clear beads, along with heart, spiral, and flower charms. Each charm desig...

A Sweet Little Clay Trinket Dish Makeover

If you’re looking for a quick, beginner‑friendly craft, this hand‑painted clay trinket dish is such a sweet project. I’ll show you how to turn a simple clay blank into a petite floral dish with a glossy finish that’s perfect for holding rings, earrings, and tiny treasures. It’s a small DIY that comes together quickly and adds a charming, whimsical touch to any space. Watch the Video Tutorial Want to See the Process? I filmed the whole thing! You can watch the full painting process here: Materials I Used small clay trinket dish acrylic paint (green base + floral colors) fine detail brush gold paint Mod Podge (glossy) This dish started out completely plain. I love pieces like this because they’re basically a blank canvas, no pressure, just play. I chose a soft green base coat to give the florals something cozy and calm to sit on. Once the base was dry, I started building the design: stems and leaves first tiny pops of color for the flowers a thin black outline to make everything stand ou...
