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!
