Easy Dollar Tree Easter Tabletop Decoration

Transform your Easter table into a whimsical wonderland with a delightful metal bunny plaque from Dollar Tree - it's an easy and affordable DIY project!

Today we are creating an Easter tabletop decoration using one of the galvanized bunnies from Dollar Tree. I actually purchased it last year, but I hadn't gotten around to creating a craft with it until now. This craft is beginner-friendly and only uses a few materials.

Materials such as Mod Podge, twine, paint, and metal bunny decoration

Materials

One galvanized bunny sign
One rectangular wooden piece can easily use scrap wood. I am using a wooden piece from a block set.
I purchased one round wood piece at Dollar Tree; they come in different shapes. I decided to go with the oval shape.
Acrylic paint- I am using a color called celery for the wood pieces and applying white to the bunny sign.
Twine
Faux greenery and tulips
Mod Podge
Paintbrush
Hot glue
Decorative napkin
Floral cutters

Begin by taking your paintbrush and applying paint over your galvanized bunny. This is not required, but I wanted to apply a thin layer of white paint before I used my Mod Podge and napkin.
Allow your paint to completely dry.

Next, using a paintbrush apply a thin layer of Mod Podge over the painted surface on your bunny. After doing this, take your napkin and remove the second layer of your napkin before applying it over the first coat of Mod Podge. Lay your napkin over your Mod Podge and gently press it down. 

I normally use a blow dryer when working with Mod Podge. I've noticed that it helps with removing any lines and creases. Apply a second coat of Mod Podge over your napkin and repeat the previous steps. Use your scissors or craft knife to remove any of the leftover napkins around the edges. Set your bunny aside.

Next, take your acrylic paint and begin to apply it to your wood pieces. Allow your wood pieces to dry before gluing them together.

Take your rectangle wood piece and using hot glue, glue it to the center of your oval wooden piece.

After, take your twine and with a small section create a bow. Take your twine and begin to wrap it around your bunny where the indentions are before you get to the body of your bunny. I started with a single strand and tied it off before wrapping it around. Cut and glue down any of the remaining twine.

Attach your bunny to your wood stand by applying hot glue to the bottom of the bunny. Take your floral cutters and begin to cut your floral and greenery to size.  After cutting your flowers, start to glue them onto your wooden stand.

A Sweet Little Clay Trinket Dish Makeover

I’ve been loving small, simple DIYs lately — the kind you can finish in an afternoon with a cup of tea nearby. Today’s project is this sweet little clay trinket dish I painted with soft florals and a glossy finish. It’s the perfect size for rings, earrings, or any tiny treasures you want to keep close. Want to See the Process? I filmed the whole thing! You can watch the full painting process here: Materials I Used small clay trinket dish acrylic paint (green base + floral colors) fine detail brush gold paint Mod Podge (glossy) This dish started out completely plain. I love pieces like this because they’re basically a blank canvas, no pressure, just play. I chose a soft green base coat to give the florals something cozy and calm to sit on. 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 out a touch of gold for warmth The gold might be my favorite part. It adds just enough shine ...
