Round mirror with gems and faux white floral attached to the mirror


For this project, you will need

Hot glue, gems, mirror and faux floral

One pack of diamond gem wrap

One mirror

Floral

Hot glue

Wire cutters/ Scissors

You can purchase all of these materials from your local Dollar Tree, or any other discount store you might have in your area. I purchased the mirror and gem wrap from my local Dollar Tree.

 My floral was purchased at my local Michaels craft store.  My total for this project was around five dollars.

First, take your gem wrap, and cut around four long strips of your wrap. Once you have done this step, take your strips and remove the paper backing when applying them to your mirror. 

When removing the paper backing, you should still have a sticky surface.

Take your gem wrap, and gently press it down on the outer surface around the mirror, just above the glass surface. You will repeat this step for each strip.

Next, take your floral pieces and begin the cut the stems. You will want to leave some of the stem, as well as some of the leaves.

After cutting your floral, take your hot glue, and apply a small amount on the back of each of your floral pieces. 

Gently press each floral piece onto your mirror. Get creative, and place them where you would like.

Colorful Summer Flower: Recycled Paper Towel DIY

Succulent Centerpiece using Dollar Tree Items

Looking to add some greenery to your space?  Hello everyone! Today, we’re going to create a quick and simple succulent display using a round baking pan from Dollar Tree. I completed this craft a while ago, but forgot to share it with you. It's an easy project, and all the materials—except for the spray paint—were purchased at Dollar Tree. You can make this lovely decoration in just 10 minutes. Let’s get started on this succulent decoration together! Materials -One baking pan -Spray paint -Stones/rocks -Crushed glass -Artificial succulents -One glass candle holder Start by applying spray paint to the baking pan. I had a bronze color from a previous project, and it would be a great opportunity to use it again. When applying spray paint, make sure to cover the surrounding area and ensure that the space is well-ventilated.  Once you have painted the pan, allow the paint to dry. I used a heating tool to speed up the drying process, but if you prefer, you can let it air dry, which m...
