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.

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 Styled 6 Fall Trays Using Simple Reused Decor

  This fall, I wanted to challenge myself to decorate with just a few simple items—things most of us already have tucked away in our craft bins. With one round tray, a Dollar Tree lantern, a battery‑operated LED candle, a handful of faux florals, and a mix of Dollar Tree pumpkins, I created six different autumn looks. Each one feels cozy, seasonal, and unique, all without buying a bunch of new décor. My goal was to show how versatile your everyday pieces can be. By swapping out colors, textures, and small accents, you can build fresh designs that fit your style and your space. Watch the video tutorial Decorating Each Tray My First Tray: Classic Lantern & Autumn Florals For my first tray, I began by placing a round tray on a woven placemat to create a cozy base. Next, I placed the black lantern in the center and added a small LED candle inside. I figured this would provide a soft autumn glow that I love. I took yellow faux florals and arranged them around the lantern to brighten...

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. Watch the Video Tutorial 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 u...
