Create a stunning DIY painted wood riser decoration with this easy step-by-step guide. Elevate your home decor with a personalized touch that is simple and fun to make.
Today I am sharing this easy DIY wood riser with all of you. We're taking the mini pots from Dollar Tree and adding them to this beautiful wood wreath design. The wood wreath decoration is an item I believe I purchased at Joann's. It comes unfinished. This craft is around 20 minutes and I will share all the details on creating your very own.
DIY Easy Painted Wood Riser Decoration
Materials needed
One wood plaque
Four mini pots- I purchased these at Dollar Tree
Acrylic paint- I'm using Espresso and Celery
Wood glue or hot glue
Candle and faux floral are optional
Paintbrush
Adding paint to the wooden plaque
To create a wonderful finish on your wooden plaque, start by applying acrylic paint. For a lighter and more stained appearance, try adding a small amount of water to the paint to thin it out. This quick tip is worth trying out.
After creating your leaf garland, it's time to start adding color. I suggest using a small paintbrush for each leaf. In case the paint is too thick, you can dilute it with a bit of water. Nevertheless, I opted not to dilute it when painting my leaves.
Adding paint to mini pots
Next, using your paintbrush apply your paint to each of the mini pots.
Attaching wooden pots to wooden plaque
Attach each pot to a corner of the wooden plaque using wood glue for a stronger hold.
Your wooden riser decoration is complete! I'm delighted with how easy it was to make, and it's stunning, don't you think? I love how it looks. You could use it to showcase a big candle jar or a potted plant. In general, it's worth adding to any room.
