April Workshop: Dollar Tree Door Hanger Fun!

 

🌸 April Workshop: Dollar Tree Door Hanger Fun! 🎨

Hey crafty friends! πŸ’…✨

It’s time to kick off our April Workshop, and this month we’re keeping it budget-friendly, fun, and totally adorable! We’re making a round spring door hanger using supplies you can snag at Dollar Tree—yes, all for just a few bucks!



πŸ›’ What You’ll Need:

  • Round wooden door hanger (Dollar Tree craft section has them!)
  • Acrylic paints in your favorite spring colors 🌼
  • Paintbrushes (small & medium)
  • Ribbon or twine for hanging
  • Optional embellishments: faux flowers, stickers, gems, or glitter (only the controlled kind—no runaway glitter disasters here!)
  • Bonus: Cricut Joy + vinyl for custom phrases or images πŸŽ¨πŸ’–

πŸ–Œ️ Step-by-Step:

  1. Base Coat: Paint your wooden round in a color that screams spring—mint green, soft yellow, or pastel pink work beautifully.
  2. Design It: Use a smaller brush to add flowers, patterns, or a cute welcome message. Don’t stress about perfection—quirky and handmade = charm!
  3. Embellish:
    • Glue on faux flowers, gems, or stickers.
    • Or bring out the Cricut Joy to add a custom vinyl phrase, monogram, or image for a polished touch that’s uniquely yours.
  4. Seal & Hang: Optional: spray a clear coat to protect your masterpiece. Then proudly display it on your door—or gift it to someone special! πŸ’–

πŸ’‘ Pro Tips:

  • Use painter’s tape for crisp lines or geometric designs.
  • Layer your paint for richer, more vibrant color.
  • Keep glitter minimal—your vacuum will thank you πŸ˜….
  • Vinyl decals from the Cricut Joy are perfect for quotes, names, or fun spring icons.

This workshop is perfect for all skill levels, and it’s a fantastic way to refresh your home dΓ©cor for spring without breaking the bank. Plus, it’s a great excuse to sip your favorite coffee or tea while you craft! ☕πŸ’›


Ready to join the fun? Grab your Dollar Tree supplies, fire up your Cricut Joy if you’ve got one, and let’s get crafty this April! 🌷✨

Event will run April 15th -19th on Craftin' Wife's Creations Facebook page, be sure to join over there!
