What spring DIY projects are you working on? Share in the comments below.Don’t let a tight budget stop you from creating your dream interior space! Luckily, there are plenty of simple DIY projects that really don’t require much time or effort on your part besides making a quick trip to your local dollar store. I love how all of my spring craft projects worked out. Place the flower pots in each holder, going from the darkest at the bottom to the lightest at the top. Twist it on the back, and those become our little pot hangers. Use a chenille stem, cut it in half, place it around the bracelet, and then stick those into each of the holes in the board. I used duct tape to secure the board to the back of the frame. Next, place the board on the back of the frame. On the back side, use my staple gun to attach them from the back. Once they dry, use a sanding block and sandpaper and get that all nicely distressed. Take chalk paint in Ink, and paint all of the boards. Stack one on top of the other to get the same size pieces, and your frame will be nice and even. You'll want to leave a gap at the top and the bottom so your frame can attach to your board. Use some scrap one by two pieces of wood and place them on the sign and see how long you need to make them. Start with the darkest shade at the bottom and gradually move up to the lightest at the top. Using four different shades of the lavender stems, do an ombre effect. Add some floral moss and glue that to the top of each of those pots. Use scrap floral foam, cut it down to fit inside the pots, and then glue them in to stay nice and secure. If you go back and tap on them a little bit when they're still wet but mostly dry, you'll get that texture that looks uneven and bumpy. Next, take the bracelets, and using chalk paint, get those nice and black to resemble something like metal. Take a drill and make two little holes using the smallest drill bit you can find. Measure five inches between each of those top holes, so you know where to place your pots. Take the leftover paint that's still on the paintbrush and lightly go over the terracotta pot. Next, take chalk paint in white, paint the backside of the sign, and get that all nicely covered. I used my Cricut spatula to pull that paper scarecrow up. You can use any of the signs that you can find at Dollar Tree, but the longer, the better for this project.

We'll use a long wooden sign, four mini terracotta flower pots, and four plastic bracelets for our final Dollar Tree spring DIY. I wanted to give my piece a bit more height, so I found this smile sign from Dollar Tree, and I used a bamboo skewer to attach it to the back in three places and poked those into all three boxes. Now take cotton twine and wrap that around the base about four times, then tie a bow in the front. I used four different colors, cut apart amaranth stems, and put three on one side and three on the other. Place those all the way around, then take some lavender stems, cut them apart, and add them in. Start filling the crate with some greenery. Take another piece and put that in the middle so the votives can be a little bit higher. Take the floral foam and cut that down into the right size to fit at the bottom of the boxes and glue that down. Put the boxes together using E 6000 and hot glue, pressing them together tightly. Take chalk paint in white and paint those boxes on the outside and top rims. We'll be using three wooden boxes, three lavender votives, lavender and white cotton twine, floral foam, and flowers in different shades of purple and lavender.įirst, pull out that inside box because we won't use those in this DIY.
