Easy DIY Dollar Tree 4th Of July Hanging Decoration

 Hi everyone! I've been in between crafts lately. I started creating a few Summer crafts, and also some 4th of July-themed crafts as well. If you haven't yet checked out my Summer sign, click here--DIY Fun Decorative Summer Sign

Today, I am bringing you a quick DIY project you can create in under 20 minutes. You will only need a few materials, and all of mine were purchased at my local Dollar Tree. If you're ready, we will dive in and begin creating your very own 4th of July hanging decoration.



Video tutorial



Materials

One Dollar Tree rectangle hanging décor

One Dollar Tree 3-piece 4th of July décor

Decorative napkin- 4th of July theme

Mod podge

Dollar Tree 4th of July foam stars

Twine

Hot glue

Scissors

One paintbrush


First, take your three-piece 4th of July décor, and cut out the section that you will want to use for this craft.


Next, using your hot glue, add a little of your glue onto the back of your cut-out 4th of July décor. 

My rectangle sign originally came with a boat design. I took my cut-out décor piece and glued it over that original design. 


After, take your napkin and remove the second layer of your napkin. Once you have done this, you can cut a square section out. Set your napkin aside.

Next, take your paintbrush and apply a thin layer of Mod Podge to the bottom of your rectangle sign. You can use a blow dryer or a heat gun to help with drying. Using your paintbrush, apply a layer of Mod Podge to the top of your napkin design.  Repeat the previous step when drying.


Using your scissors, cut a strand of twine. Using your hot glue, apply your twine just above the decorative napkin. Remove any remaining twine on both ends.

Next, using your hot glue, begin to attach your foam stars to your sign. I attached three stars just below the 4th of July décor sign, and three just above the twine. 


Your 4th of July hanging decoration is complete! If you would like, you could always add a bow right in the middle of your decoration as well. I hope you have enjoyed this DIY craft. Let me know in the comments below if you decide to create your very own.

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.

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...

If you’re looking for a quick, beginner‑friendly craft, this hand‑painted clay trinket dish is such a sweet project.

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...
