Three Dollar Chalkboard Re-do


 Hello, my lovely crafters! I went to the Dollar Tree and found this simple wooden chalkboard for three dollars. I was pretty excited because I love a quick and easy re-do project. You can find all the materials for this fun craft at Dollar Tree, or any craft store. 

Materials needed

One wooden chalkboard 

Paint- I'm using bright magenta, and black

Gems

Pop-up butterfly stickers

Paintbrush

Hot glue

Succulents- Just a few smaller succulents 

Start by applying paint to your chalkboard. I painted my bright magenta around the outer section just around the chalkboard section.


Next, take your black paint and apply it to the bottom section near the hooks on your chalkboard. I also went around the sides, and top of my chalkboard with my black paint. Once you have applied your paint, allow it to fully dry.



Next, take your succulents and begin to glue them onto your chalkboard. I used just a little hot glue to add them onto my chalkboard. I glued my succulents on the left bottom corner just above the painted black section. 



Now you are ready to add on your pop-up butterfly stickers. I found this pack at my local Dollar Tree store. You can either stick them on or use just a little hot glue when adding them onto your board. I decided to use just a little glue on the backs of each of them.

After you add on your butterflies, take your craft gems, and begin to add them. I randomly glued a few onto my board.

Your chalkboard re-do is now complete, and it is just so fun! I love how it came together, and I just love how colorful, and fun it is.--It is perfect for quick reminders, positive sayings, or just other quick notes!  I hope you enjoyed this quick, and easy craft. Be sure to let me know if you decide to create one too!

Easy Floral Decoupage Idea for Faux Pumpkin Display

 Hi everyone! I'm excited to share a simple and easy floral pumpkin design you can create quickly. Today, we will make a faux floral pumpkin display using decoupage and a few additional designs. I'm reusing a foam pumpkin that I bought at Dollar Tree. If you’re ready, let’s begin creating an easy floral decoupage faux pumpkin display! Quick video tutorial **Materials needed:** - Acrylic paint - Paintbrush - Floral napkin - Faux pearls - Faux flowers - Craft knife - Scissors - Mod Podge Carefully remove the top of your pumpkin. I used my craft knife to go around the top section, creating a hole at the top. Using a paintbrush, apply acrylic paint to the pumpkin. I chose to paint mine black. Next, use scissors to cut out a few flowers from your napkin. Make sure to remove the second layer of the napkin before cutting out the designs.   Once you have your floral designs cut out, use a paintbrush to apply Mod Podge to the pumpkin. While the Mod Podge is wet, add the floral napkin c...

DIY Floral Wooden Jack‑O’‑Lanterns (Easy Fall Decor)

I’ve been having so much fun creating fall projects this year. These floral wooden jack‑o’‑lanterns  started as simple wooden pumpkins, but with a few pretty transfers and some soft paint colors, they turned into the sweetest little fall accents. I love how the florals give them a cozy, cottage‑style feel while still keeping that classic jack‑o’‑lantern charm. They’re quick to make, easy to customize, and such a cute way to add a warm autumn touch to your home. Watch the video tutorial Materials Wooden pumpkin cutouts Floral transfers Acrylic paint (your chosen colors) Gold acrylic paint Green acrylic paint Mini dowels Hot glue gun + glue sticks Small wooden stands Brown acrylic paint Paintbrushes   Add the floral transfers I started by placing my floral transfers onto each wooden pumpkin, just arranging them until they felt right. Once they were where I wanted them, I used a little rubbing tool to press them down and transfer the design onto the wood. Take your time with this...
