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.

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.
