A DIY dollar tree decor idea can be a great conversation piece. It can also make for a lovely display if you use your imagination. You do not have to be gifted or a tree care expert to come up with this project. If you are reasonably handy, are willing to learn, and are able to follow simple directions, you can create a charming centerpiece that will bring enjoyment to the family and friends who visit.
The easiest of all my dollar tree decor ideas is to purchase a variety of dollar store products that are bright and colorful. Try searching for some of the more popular items in bright, bold colors. Also, look for packages with a variety of shapes, such as circles, triangles, and squares. Add these shapes and colors to a plain cardboard box and you have a cheap, beautiful centerpiece that is easy to assemble.
There are many enjoyable DIY dollar store in projects that use inexpensive farmhouse ornaments. One such item is a cornucopia, which is great for adding a little glitz and glam to any holiday table. Look for brightly colored glass glazes to suit the holiday that you are celebrating, such as Thanksgiving. Then pair the glaze with a brightly colored straw or plastic hat to dress it up for the holidays. If you are looking for a little less glitz for your centerpiece, try searching for a variety of brightly colored wooden or metallic plaques to use in your cornucopia.
For a more down-home fun look, you can dress up a plain clear plastic trash bag in a variety of colors. Use one color of the plastic bag for the bottom of your in tree decoration and another for the top. Use white craft glue to tack the sides of the trash bag to the sides of your clear trash bag and then use a white, clear, or pink washcloth to tie the bag closed with ribbon. A few tiny rubber bands and a few twist ties will allow you to create beautiful and unique ladders for hanging in your locker rooms!
This fun and exciting DIY decor idea are perfect for either summer or winter. For this project you will need one or two clear plastic milk jugs, white craft paint (or paint and stenciling paint), some clear, colored cellophane, and craft straps. Attach the lip of one jig to the edge of one of the empty milk jugs. Use the straps to hang the other empty milk jug over the first jig and continue until the desired height is reached. If you wish to dress up a plain milk jug, you can decorate it using any sort of fabric and any sort of color!
The third DIY Dollar Tree decor idea is to make a large dollar store mirror out of cardboard. You will cut your cardboard pieces so that they are one inch by one inch. Then you attach them onto their brackets and secure them with craft glue. You will then glue the resulting mirror to the inside of one of your empty milk jugs. This is an excellent idea for both winter and summer because you can take the stencil that you used for the plastic milk jugs and use it to design something more sophisticated than the aforementioned “dollar store” decoration!
For this DIY decor idea you will need a clear plastic milk jug, a piece of cardboard that is cut in the form of a triangle and four or five clear, colored cellophane bags. You will also want to add a ribbon at the top of the milk jug and then use a craft strap to hang the jig from the top of one of your milk jugs. Once this is done, you can decorate your homemade mirror using any sort of fabric or color that you like and then attach a clear, colored cellophane bag to the bottom of the jug and voila – instant DIY instructions and project credit the children!
Another popular and inexpensive DIY decor idea is a dollar store. To make this decorating idea work for your home decor video, you will need three empty, clean milk jugs, a metal detector, a dollar sign, and two cans of pennies. You will use the metal detector to search for the items in the jars that are marked with dollar signs. Once you have found the items you will put them in your three empty milk jugs. Make sure all of the cans are lined up in order to create a good display and then attach the cans of pennies.
