$5 Target Mini Wheelbarrow Decoration Redesign


Hello everyone. I hope that you are all doing well. Last week was a busy week for my household. We had lessons and appointments, and a lot of studying happened. With all of the hecticness going on, I was able to take a trip with my girls to one of our local Target stores. I found this super cute mini wheelbarrow in the dollar section during our trip there. This was five dollars, and I couldn't wait to come up with a craft to share with all of you.
This is a quick redesign project; you only need a few materials.

Adding painter's tape to the wheelbarrow

Stary by adding your painter's tape to your wheelbarrow. I applied my tape to the areas where I did not want my spray paint getting on.

After adding your tape, take your wheelbarrow and add your spray paint.

Begin to add your craft rocks to the inside of your wheelbarrow. I filled my wheelbarrow halfway with my craft rocks.

Adding faux succulents to the wheelbarrow

Take floral cutters and cut your succulents or flowers to size.
Once you have cut them to size, place them into your rocks. I used hot glue on the ends of each of my succulents to help keep them in place. This will prevent them from moving around and falling out when the wheelbarrow is moved.

That completes your wheelbarrow redesign. I love how easy it is to take an item, and completely change the look of it just by adding paint, flowers, or succulents. Did you enjoy this craft? Let me know in the comments below if you will be creating your very own. Thank you so much for stopping by. I'll see you soon.
