Create a festive and budget-friendly Christmas truck hanging decoration using items from the Dollar Tree. This DIY project will add a charming touch to your holiday decor.
Here's a simple and quick Christmas craft using a Truck plaque from Dollar Tree. Follow the material list below and let's get started!
Video tutorial
Materials
One truck plaque- I purchased my truck plaque at Dollar Tree
Paint- I'm using red, black, and green acrylic paint
Faux greenery
Hot glue
Faux snow
Twine or craft rope
Optional
Christmas light stickers, or any holiday sticker design
Paintbrush
Start by taking your truck plaque and adding your red paint.
Next, take your black paint and begin to paint the wheels of your truck.
After, take your green paint and begin to paint the bed of your truck plaque.
I decided to add my Christmas sticker lights onto the front side of my truck just below the bed of the truck.
I used my scissors and cut the size needed to fit on my truck plaque.
After, take your greenery and add it onto your truck. Using hot glue, begin to attach your greenery. Flip your truck plaque over, and start adding your hot glue. Be sure to protect your fingers when adding your greenery over your hot glue.
After, take your hot glue and begin to apply a thin layer of your glue onto your truck, and add on your faux snow.
You are now ready to add your twine. Carefully flip your truck over. Take your scissors and cut a section of your twine off. After, take your hot glue and add it to the back of your truck. Your twine will be used for hanging your design.
Your design is complete. If you would like you can add a Christmas sticker just below the window on your truck design. I added one, and I think it looks adorable.
Thank you so much for stopping by, and creating with me. I'll see you soon!

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!

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. 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, you can 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 design can be comple...
