Winter Floral Tray: Easy Steps Using Dollar Tree Cutting Board

 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!

Materials for floral winter tray

Materials
One bamboo cutting board
Winter faux foliage
Paintbrush
Hot glue
Four wooden beads
Acrylic paint
Optional faux mini trees

Acrylic paint and cutting board

Begin by applying acrylic paint to the wooden cutting board.
I decided to mix two colors together: white and English ivy green.

Four wooden beads, cutting board, and hot glue

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.

Winter foliage, and cutting board

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 enough space to place other decorations on your tray, such as a candle or similar items.

I'm really pleased with how this project turned out; it's an adorable way to display a few items during the winter season. I used foliage that was lightly dusted with faux snow on the leaves, and I added some gold mini-trees along with a single red flower. Once the tray was complete, I placed my mini hedgehog and a candle on it.

I set it on my table, and it creates such a charming display. I hope you enjoyed creating your winter tray as well. I'll see you soon!

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...

Transforming a Dollar Tree Metal Home Sign with Paint

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. Using a small, pointed-tip brush, I carefully reached all the tiny areas around the leaves and buds. I applied three coats of black paint, drying each layer with my heat tool.
