DIY Dollar Tree Valentine's Clay Pot Floral Design



 Hi everyone! 

I took a quick trip to my local Dollar Tree, and I was so excited to find a few items to create this really cute craft. I created two Valentine clay pot floral pieces. This DIY project is super easy and does not take a lot of time.  And most of my materials were purchased at my local Dollar tree.  The rest of the materials I had on hand.  I purchased the pots, foam roses, and floral foam. This craft was around four dollars. 


Materials needed

- One pack of the clay pots

It comes with two

Paint

I used white, and pink

One pack of pink foam roses

White faux flower- Optional

Twine

Hot glue

Floral foam piece

A pack of lace hearts or something similar 





First, take your clay pots and apply a layer of white paint around, and on the top of your clay pots. 



Allow the first layer to dry, and after applying a mixture of the white and pink paint for your second layer. Set your pots aside, and allow them to completely dry.



Next, take your clay pots and twine. Using some hot glue, apply some glue around the top section under the lip of your pot. After, applying some glue, add your twine on top, and go around the top section. 

Repeat this step, and apply a second layer of twine to the top section of your pot. You will do this for both pots. 


 Next, take your lace hearts, and apply some hot glue onto the back side of the hearts.  Add it to the front side of your pots.





Now you are ready to work with the floral foam piece. I ended up cutting my floral foam in half and shaving parts of it down. I did this to create a better fit for when I placed it into the clay pots. You want your foam to sit at the top of your pot. 


You are now ready to add your cut foam pieces. Gently press it down. It should feel a little snug when you press it down, and you should still be able to see it. 


Take your foam roses, and add them using your hot glue. Apply a small amount of glue, and press them gently down onto your foam piece. 

Once you have down this if you have any white flowers you can add them in between your foam roses. 



You're all done! These pots look wonderful displayed on a tray, entry table, or even a coffee table. 

Let me know if you decide to create your very own. 

Thanks so much for stopping by.

The Crazy Little Lovebirds Link Party 145

Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #145! I’m so happy you’re here! This is a warm and friendly gathering where you can share your amazing ideas—whether it's tasty recipes, fun family activities, creative crafts, home projects, or any other joyful inspirations. If you love finding new DIY ideas and learning from other bloggers, you’re in the perfect spot! Happy Friday! I hope you are all doing well. This week was a little rough. It started with my husband having a cough, sore throat, sneezing, and whole-body aches. Of course, that was passed on to the rest of us, but we have been so fortunate to just have a sore throat. This calls for plenty of hydration, vitamin C, and occasional medication. I hope you all had a nice week. Just yesterday, the weather reached 102 degrees! It definitely was hot out. Now, onto the party, we have some wonderful featured posts to share this week. Thank you to everyone who joined last week, and if you are new here, welcome! We're so gl...

DIY Tea Tin Planter for Sweet Mint

Today’s tiny DIY win: turning an empty lemon‑ginger tea tin into a planter for a sweet mint plant that needed some love. I cleaned the tin, added drainage, and nestled the mint inside. It instantly brightened up the space — the colors on the tin and the fresh green leaves look so sweet together. I love giving everyday items a second life, especially when they end up this cute. Quick Video Tutorial  I began this little project by cleaning out an empty metal tea container that I had saved. It still held a soft scent of lemon and ginger, and I loved the idea of giving it a second life. Once I washed and dried it, the container felt ready for a new purpose.   Next, I used a finishing nail and a hammer to create a few drainage holes in the bottom of the tin. Since metal containers don’t have natural drainage, this step helps keep the roots healthy and prevents the soil from becoming soggy. Having prepared the container, I carefully removed the sweet mint from its original pot. The ...

Bonus: it’s the perfect way to reuse an old frame and welcome summer in style! What You’ll Need: 1 paper towel tube (emptied, of course!) Acrylic paint (I chose a deeper pink) Craft pom poms (yellow makes a great center!) Assorted beads (medium for the stem, smaller for embellishing the petals) Foam letters (for your summer message) A reused frame (square or any shape of your choice) Scissors Hot glue gun Creating your summer flower decoration Cut the Tube and Shape the Petals :  Start by cutting the paper towel tube into four evenly-sized sections.
