Hi everyone! I wanted to start my craft transition from summer to fall to give you all a head start on some autumn craft ideas. I've noticed that many stores already have their autumn crafts, home decor, and other seasonal items out. Today, I am sharing what I call my "wooden crate full of sunshine." It's bright and pretty cheery. This creation is simple, and I am reusing my wooden crate from a previous craft.
Video tutorial
Materials needed:
- One wooden crate box
- Artificial flowers
- Scissors
- Mod Podge
- Paintbrush
- Decorative napkin
- Foam blocks
For this project, I am repurposing a wooden crate that was previously painted black. I have decided to paint it a lighter, more cheerful color by mixing yellow and light cream.
Next, using scissors, cut out your napkin design. Once you have cut out the design, remove the second layer of your napkin.
Use a paintbrush to apply a thin layer of Mod Podge over a section of the wooden crate. Then place the decorative napkin over the Mod Podge, and gently smooth out any creases and wrinkles. Finally, apply a second layer of Mod Podge over the napkin.
Lastly, insert the foam blocks into the wooden crate. Then, begin placing your flowers in the crate.
That completes this craft. I hope you have enjoyed this simple craft. Thank you for visiting.

Hello everyone! I’m excited to share my latest craft with you all. Today, we will be creating a floral winter tray using a bamboo cutting board from Dollar Tree. I often come across these bamboo cutting boards at my local Dollar Tree, and this time, I decided to pick one up. This craft is simple and budget-friendly. Join me as we make a winter floral tray using just a few materials! Video tutorial Materials One bamboo cutting board Winter faux foliage Paintbrush Hot glue Four wooden beads Acrylic paint Optional faux mini trees Begin by applying acrylic paint to the wooden cutting board. I decided to mix two colors together: white and English ivy green. Next, take four wooden beads and use hot glue to attach them to the underside of the board. I had a few extra beads from a previous project. After that, attach the faux foliage to the wooden board using hot glue. Depending on how you want to display the items on your board, arrange the foliage around the edges. This will ensure enou...
Hi everyone. I hope that you are all doing well. I am patiently waiting for Fall to arrive. Fall is my favorite season of them all. I love the golden leaves, hot apple cider by the fire pit, sitting out in the evenings roasting marshmallows. It is simply the best for me. Do you have a favorite season? What do you enjoy about it? Today I am sharing a quick upcycle craft. I decided to use my glass Oui yogurt jars. I love these little jars and what a perfect way to reuse them.
