Easy Dollar Tree Décor Upgrade

 Hello everyone. How are you all doing? We are expecting a snowstorm. I'll be sure to stay warm and cozy indoors. Today I am sharing a quick and easy upgrade project with you. We're taking on wooden decoration from Dollar Tree and transforming it. You can create this in under 15 minutes. If you're ready, let's begin creating.


Easy Dollar Tree Decor Upgrade Video Tutorial




Materials

One wooden decor with a metal clip
Decorative stickers
Faux floral
Hot glue
White acrylic paint
Floral cutters
Paintbrush

You can find the wooden decoration at Dollar Tree



Start by applying your white acrylic paint to your wooden decor. I applied around two coats of paint.


Next, take one of your decorative stickers and add it to the middle of your wooden decoration. I decided to add the home sticker that I purchased from Dollar Tree.


After, take your floral cutters and cut a few of your flowers from the main stem.
Take each flower that you previously cut and begin to glue them to the lower section of your wooden decoration. You will glue each of the flower sections on the back, and bottom of your wood decoration.


After gluing your floral, you can take any other decorative stickers and add them to your decoration. I ended up adding two birds to my decoration.


Lastly, take your floral cutters and cut just the top of your floral. I decided to use white flowers for this. After cutting just the top of the floral, take them and add them to the opening of the metal clip. This is completely optional. You can also add a photo to your metal clip.


I love how simple this was to decorate and upgrade a simple decor item from Dollar Tree. If you create your very own, I would love to hear about it. Be sure to let me know in the comments below, or just feel free and say hello. I love hearing from all of you. I'll see you all soon.

    I absolutely love Dollar Tree. This is where I bought my Kitchen plates and then a set for my dinning room for the holidays! I never thought about up doing crafts with items from there. I will keep this in mind when I am with my grand girls. They love doing crafts. Thanks for sharing!

      Debra. Aw yes, Dollar Tree has some great items. I'm always so happy when I find a new item that I haven't seen in the store before. They have added a lot of new items. Be sure to check out craft items for your grandgirls as well. 😃

Wood Box With Glass Bottles Decorative Centerpiece

Hi everyone! I hope that you are all doing well. It has been pretty rainy these past few days. I'm enjoying the rainy weather compared to the really hot days we were getting before.  Today we are working on building a wood box centerpiece. Instead of using the wood crate boxes from Dollar Tree, I wanted to build my own box. For this project, we're using a wood fence picket. I paid $1.48 for one picket, and you can create two boxes with just this one picket. I'm also going to reuse my glass Frappuccino bottles. I will provide a video tutorial as well.  Video tutorial Materials   One wood fence picket- I purchased mine at my local Lowe's for $1.48 Two glass bottles-I am reusing my Starbucks glass bottles Paint Paintbrush Faux greenery Rub-on transfers Wood glue Corner clamps Hot glue One round wooden circle Floral snips Scissors Begin by cutting your wood fence picket. Cut the short ends of your wood 2½ inches. Next, cut the front, back, and bottom of your wood 6¼ inches.
