Hi everyone! Today, I'm excited to share a simple frame craft using Dollar Tree materials. We'll create an easy Spring frame design with one of their frames. I'll provide a complete materials list, and for those who prefer visual guidance, there will be a video tutorial to follow along with.
Video tutorial
Materials:
-4x4 plywood frame (I'm using the frame with the bead design around the front)
-One mini bunny wood decoration (I found a pack at Dollar Tree a few years ago)
-Acrylic paint for painting the bunny (I'm using brown acrylic paint), and light blue paint for the frame
-Spring embellishments - I'm using spring buttons and other decorations for my frame
-Peel-and-stick decorative wallpaper - I found a few new designs at Dollar Tree
-Hot glue
-Paintbrush or spongebrush
Removing the backing from the frame:
Before you begin, remove the backing and the glass. Set the back of the frame aside.
Preparing the peel-and-stick paper:
Flip the peel-and-stick paper over. I used the frame's paper insert and placed it on the paper. I traced the shape with a pencil.
I used scissors to cut out the shape on the peel-and-stick paper.
Remove the backing of the peel-and-stick paper and apply it to the insert. Note that the glass will not be placed back into the frame.
Applying paint to the frame:
I started with a sponge brush. I dabbed it in the light blue paint and applied it to the frame.
For smaller areas and between the bead design, I used a smaller paintbrush. Set it aside and allow it to dry, or use a heat tool to speed up the drying process. After the paint has dried, take the backing of the frame mount and reinsert it into the frame.
Painting the bunny decoration:
I used a small sponge brush to apply brown paint, thinned with water, to the bunny decoration.
Adding the bunny and other embellishments:
Lastly, I attached the bunny to the frame using hot glue.
I added a small flower button decoration to the bunny just below one of its ears. Additionally, I included a few smaller gem floral embellishments and a mini butterfly to the design.
That completes your spring frame decoration. I love how I transformed a Dollar Tree frame and gave it a completely new look using peel-and-stick paper, paint, and other decorations. I hope you enjoyed creating this simple DIY project with me. See you soon!

Today I’m sharing a soft and delicate spring wreath that comes together beautifully with just a few simple supplies. I’m using a beaded wood wreath as my base, along with faux yellow roses, pink artificial wildflowers, and a bit of foliage to bring everything to life. This project is perfect if you’re looking to add a gentle pop of color and a touch of spring charm to your home. Video tutorial Supplies You’ll Need Beaded wood wreath Faux yellow roses Pink artificial wildflowers Faux foliage Floral/wire cutters Craft wire Trim Your Florals I started by using my floral cutters to trim the stems of each flower. Make sure the stems are short enough to fit nicely against the wreath, but long enough to secure them with wire. Adjust the length to suit your design and the level of fullness you want in your wreath. I began by cutting my yellow roses first. Prepare Your Craft Wire and Attach the Roses After I trimmed the roses, I cut small sections of craft wire. These will be u...
