Wood crate floral display with mini watering can

 Hello everyone! I hope all is well. Today we are creating a floral display using one wood crate from Dollar Tree. I absolutely love the wood crates at Dollar Tree, and I thought it would make a perfect display when including one mini watering can. The mini watering can be purchased at Hobby Lobby. If you're ready we will begin creating this simple DIY project.


Video tutorial



Materials

  • One wood crate box
  • One bendable metal wire
  • One paint brush
  • Paint
  • Floral 
  • Floral snips
  • Craft foam block
  • Hot glue
  • Twine
  • Craft clothespins

Start by taking your paint, paintbrush, and your wood crate. Begin to apply paint to your wood crate. Be sure to paint all sections on your wood crate box.



Next, take your metal piece, and bend it so that your metal makes an L shape. Apply hot glue onto the shorter section of your metal. After applying glue onto the metal, take your watering can and place it on top of the bent metal section. You will need to take extra hot glue and apply it to the bottom of the watering can. This helps to give it extra support. 

After, take the longer end of your metal, add hot glue, and press it against one corner on the inside of your wood crate box.  At this point, your watering can should be standing in the corner of your box.

Next, take your craft foam, and add it to the bottom of your wood crate.

Take your floral snips, and begin to cut your flowers to size. After cutting your floral to size, take each piece, and insert it through your foam piece.

Now you are ready to add on your craft clothespins. Take your clothespins, and add hot glue on the back of each one. Add them to the front of your wood crate. 

Next, take your scissors, and cut a small section of twine. Take each end, and tie it around the top of each of your clothespins. I decided to tie it around the top of the clothespins because trying to hang it from the opening of the clothespins caused my twine to hang too low. 

After you have added your twine, take your craft fabric heart, and using hot glue, glue it onto your twine. I also added a little glue on the back side of the fabric heart and glued it onto both the twine and wood crate. 

Your floral display is now complete. I love how simple, and quick this craft was. Thank you so much for stopping by, and creating with me. I'll see you soon!

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.  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 acrylic paints and started...

Transforming a Dollar Tree Metal Home Sign with Paint

Hello, blogging friends! Today, I’m excited to share an easy makeover I did using a “HOME” sign from Dollar Tree. This project is simple, but the transformation feels soft, warm, and inviting—just the kind of piece that quietly brightens a space. The sign began as plain and flat, but after a few gentle coats of paint, it became something charming and full of personality. Video tutorial  Materials Dollar Tree metal HOME sign (Crafter’s Square) Black FolkArt Matte Acrylic Paint Light green Craft Smart Matte Acrylic Paint Coral Craft Smart Matte Acrylic Paint Light pink paint Dark green Paintbrushes (flat and detail brushes) I started by applying a black base coat to the entire sign. Using a small, pointed-tip brush, I carefully reached all the tiny areas around the leaves and buds. I applied three coats of black paint, drying each layer with my heat tool. This step creates a clean, even surface and helps the top colors stand out beautifully. Next, I used a light green paint t...
