Learn how to create a festive winter design in your home using a Dollar Tree faux arched window frame. This budget-friendly DIY project will add a touch of holiday charm to your decor. Find step-by-step instructions and inspiration for creating a stunning winter window display.

Hey there everyone! Today, I want to share an easy DIY craft transformation with you all. We'll be using a faux arched window frame from Dollar Tree and turning it into a beautiful winter decor piece that can be displayed on a mantel, shelf, or any room. The best part is that you won't need many materials, and I will provide you with the list of materials that you will need. So, let's get started and create our arched window frame design!

Faux arched window frame winter design

Faux Arched Window Frame, paint, paintbrush, hot glue, and greenery

Materials

  • One faux arched window frame decoration
  • Acrylic paint
  • Faux greenery
  • Paintbrush
  • Hot glue
  • Optional: Mod Podge, snow powder, and floral cutters
  • Holiday embellishments

Applying paint to the faux window frameFaux Arched Window Frame with white acrylic paint


Take your paintbrush and apply acrylic paint to your faux arched window frame decoration. The frame I purchased was black, and for the winter design, I painted it white. You can paint your window frame any color you like.

Optional step: Applying Mod Podge and faux snow powderFaux Arched Window Frame with paintbrush and Mod Podge

Next,
 
Take your paintbrush and apply Mod Podge to the areas where you want to add your faux snow powder. This step is optional. Sprinkle the faux snow powder over the Mod Podge area. I added a little to the lower section of the window frame.

 You are now ready to add your holiday embellishments. I decided to add a single snowflake sticker to the center of my window frame. You could add gems, a mini wreath, or other embellishments as well.

Colorful Summer Flower: Recycled Paper Towel DIY

  Looking to bring a little sunshine into your space without visiting the craft store? This whimsical summer flower decoration makes great use of what you already have—think beads, pom poms, a humble paper towel tube, and a splash of acrylic paint. 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. Each section will serve as a petal. You should be left with four rings. Next, flatten each ring, then gently reshape it to form soft ovals. These will mimic delicate flower...

DIY Upcycled Peanut Jars

Transform your old peanut jars into stylish, functional containers with these creative and easy DIY upcycling ideas. Learn how to repurpose your peanut jars and give them a new life with practical and decorative uses.   Materials needed: Two  empty peanut containers Two sheets of crafting paper tape scissors Start  by removing the old label on your peanut containers  Next, you'll want to wrap your crafting paper around your container.  If you find that it does not completely cover the container, cut out a single strip to use later. I found it easier to wrap my containers with my craft paper and make the marks I needed before cutting them to size.  Tape your crafting paper into the container and then make necessary cuts to the paper using your scissors. Once this is done, take the last piece of crafting paper that you cut out earlier and place it over the spot that you were unable to cover. Take some clear tape and apply it to the contai...

Fun with popsicle sticks...and more!

Since my daughter and I didn't make it out to the library, we did our own craft, and story time. (Which in my opinion is the best) :) Today we made popsicle stick frames, with a message. It was so much fun. For this craft the materials you need are: -Popsicle sticks -Hot glue gun -Paint -Markers/crayons -Construction paper (and scissors) 1.Start off by making a frame out of your popsicle sticks. Glue the corners together. I went ahead and made a message on construction paper to glue on to the back of the frame. (You will have to cut it to fit the frame. 2.Once that is done, paint your frame. (Have fun with it!) My daughter had so much fun with all the different colors. :) 3.Now once that is finished make a T-shape out of two popsicle sticks. (This is for the stand for the back of the frame.) Glue both sticks together, and glue it to the back of the construction paper. You're all done! Now you have a cute popsicle stick frame, with a message! Enjoy~ ...
