Creating a Festive Winter Design with Dollar Tree Faux Arched Window Frame

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.

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 ...

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...
