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!

I created these magnetic faux succulent and floral lids using some metal jar tops that I had saved. With a little creativity, they transformed into charming, lightweight accents that add a pop of color and personality to the fridge. Each lid features its own tiny arrangement—part succulent and part floral—all crafted with intention and charm. This project is easy and budget-friendly, allowing you to use items you already have while adding a lovely touch to your home. Quick Video Tutorial Coming Soon Materials Metal jar lids (one large, one small) Letter beads (to spell LOVE ) Faux moss Faux succulents Faux vines Faux flowers (pink, green foliage, white accents) Hot glue gun and glue sticks Magnets I began with the larger metal lid, attaching small letter beads to spell out LOVE .
