Farmer's Market Vibe: Mason Jar DIY
Mason jars are having a moment, and for good reason. They're versatile, durable, and oh-so-charming. Create a farmer's market-inspired wall display using mason jars as candle holders, vases, or planters. Hey, why not all three?
Snag a variety of mason jars in different sizes and colors at Dollar Tree, then paint or wrap them with twine, fabric, or washi tape for added flair. Use command hooks or curtain rod brackets to hang them on the wall, creating a rustic-chic gallery of jars.
Hanging Terrarium Garden
Bring the outdoors in with air plants & succulents from Dollar Tree. Fill mini mason jars with them for a pops of green. Trace the base of the jars on some schedtered corkboard (also from Dollar Tree) and cut out the circles. Then, hot glue the corkboard circles to the back of the mason jars. Hang them on the wall using ribbons or twine.
For added oomph, paint the mason jars in a vibrant color or adorn them with decoupage or washi tape designs. Water your hanging garden once a week, and watch your plants flourish.
Light-Up Jars
Transform mason jars into enchanting lanterns by adding fairy lights from Dollar Tree. Wrap the lights around the inside of the jar, and secure them in place with hot glue. You can also insert a large battery-operated LED candle for a smoke-free, worry-free glow.
Arrange your light-up jars on a bookcase, mantel, or even directly on the wall. They'll cast a warm, inviting glow that'll make your space feel cozy and inviting. Plus, they're perfect for creating a romantic ambiance for date nights in.
DIY Canvas Art
Canvas art can be expensive, but Dollar Tree has a sneaky solution: blank canvas panels! At a dollar each, you can create an entire gallery wall for just a few bucks. So, grab some acrylic paints and brushes, and let your inner artist run wild.
Some DIY canvas art ideas include ombré designs, geometric patterns, or evenDIY-ing your favorite art prints. You can also turn canvas panels into stylish photo frames by hanging a frame over the canvas and securing it with some nails or picture hanging hardware.
Ombré Sunset Art
Create a breathtaking sunset canvas by mixing together reds, oranges, pinks, and yellows, creating an ombré effect. Start with a darker shade at the top of the canvas, and gradually blend in lighter shades as you move down.
Once the paint is dry, distress the edges of the canvas for a touch of rustic charm. Hang the canvas on a wall with other beautiful sunset-inspired pieces, like a dreamcatcher or a macrame wall hanging (both available at Dollar Tree, of course).
DIY Chalkboard Art
Turn a canvas panel into a chalkboard by giving it a few coats of chalkboard paint. Let the paint dry thoroughly between coats, and then season the chalkboard by rubbing the side of a piece of chalk all over the surface and then erasing it.
Style your chalkboard canvas with some framed chalk art, whimsical strings of fairy lights, or even a DIY chalkboard clock. Change the message on your chalkboard canvas as often as you like – it's perfect for making announcements, sharing quotes, or just drawing silly doodles.
Washi Tape Wallpaper DIY
Washi tape is a decorator's dream, offering endless opportunities for customizable, removable designs. CreateInstant wallpaper by covering a wall with colorful or patterned washi tape stripes, polka dots, or even chevrons. It's an easy, no-commitment way to add some major impact to your walls.
To get started, choose a few colors or patterns of washi tape that complement your room's color scheme. Measure and cut the tape, then start applying it to the wall in your desired pattern. Remember, the key to washi tape art is precision – take your time and use a ruler, level, or even a laser level for straight lines.
Tape Art Installation
____Interface the tape with other elements in the room, like a gallery wall or a piece of furniture. Play around with different shapes, patterns, and even create your own murals. The possibilities are literally endless.
For a more subtle approach, use clear washi tape to mimic the look of framed art. Cut out a shape or pattern from thick cardstock or foam board, then secure it to the wall with the tape. The result is a reusable, damage-free piece of art that's perfect for renters or anyone looking to inject some style into their space without commitment.
There you have it – proof that stunning wall decor doesn't have to mean breaking the bank. Dollar Tree is a treasure trove of DIY decorating inspiration. So, grab your wallet, your craft supplies, and get ready to transform your space into a personal oasis. Happy decorating!
