Create a simple farmhouse decoration using one house plaque from Dollar Tree

 Happy summer, everyone! How are you all doing? I hope all is well. I recently checked the extended weather report, and we will see warmer days for a bit. There has been a lot of rain, flooding, and hail. Other than the weather, life is good and I hope the same goes for you. Are you ready to create a simple decoration? I will share a quick decoration you can make in under ten minutes. I purchased the house plaque at my local Dollar Tree.  I knew I wanted a simple design. This design is perfect to add to any decor.

Craft materials such as floral cutters, faux floral, rub-on transfer, and house plague.

Materials


One house decoration plaque
Rub-on letter transfer
Twine
Floral
Hot glue
Scissors
Floral cutters

Adding rub-on transfer to house plaque

Rub-on transfers with house plaque on a table

Begin by taking your rub-on transfers and adding them to your house decoration. I decided to go with the farmhouse transfer. I also added two of the leaf designs. When I apply my rub-on transfers I normally use an eraser on a pencil. This is something I prefer to do and I find it useful. 

Attaching floral and twine

Next, you are now ready to add your floral and twine. I applied some hot glue when attaching my flowers to my house decoration. I had a few of my faux wildflowers on hand. I thought they would do perfectly with this design.

After, take your twine and begin to wrap the twine around the stems of your flowers. I started by wrapping the twine around once and then tying off the twine. Wrap your twine around until the bottom of your decoration is completely wrapped with the twine. I also added a little hot glue to keep my twine in place.  
That completes your simple farmhouse decoration. I love how adding just a few materials can create a simple, cozy design. This is perfect for displaying on a shelf, or adding to a tiered tray. Let me know if you create your very own.

I'll see you all soon.

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. Around Halloween, I purchased this tablecloth a few years ago at my local Walmart. After laying it out, I realized that I could ...

How I Styled 6 Fall Trays Using Simple Reused Decor

  This fall, I wanted to challenge myself to decorate with just a few simple items—things most of us already have tucked away in our craft bins. With one round tray, a Dollar Tree lantern, a battery‑operated LED candle, a handful of faux florals, and a mix of Dollar Tree pumpkins, I created six different autumn looks. Each one feels cozy, seasonal, and unique, all without buying a bunch of new décor. My goal was to show how versatile your everyday pieces can be. By swapping out colors, textures, and small accents, you can build fresh designs that fit your style and your space. Watch the video tutorial Decorating Each Tray My First Tray: Classic Lantern & Autumn Florals For my first tray, I began by placing a round tray on a woven placemat to create a cozy base. Next, I placed the black lantern in the center and added a small LED candle inside. I figured this would provide a soft autumn glow that I love. I took yellow faux florals and arranged them around the lantern to brighten...

Hello, blogging friends! Today, I’m excited to share an easy makeover I did using a “HOME” sign from Dollar Tree. This project is simple, but the transformation feels soft, warm, and inviting—just the kind of piece that quietly brightens a space. The sign began as plain and flat, but after a few gentle coats of paint, it became something charming and full of personality. Watch the Video Tutorial Video tutorial  Materials Dollar Tree metal HOME sign (Crafter’s Square) Black FolkArt Matte Acrylic Paint Light green Craft Smart Matte Acrylic Paint Coral Craft Smart Matte Acrylic Paint Light pink paint Dark green Paintbrushes (flat and detail brushes) I started by applying a black base coat to the entire sign.
