This DIY Dollar Tree craft idea is perfect for spring and summer. Make these easy craft ideas with inexpensive supplies from Dollar tree or your favorite dollar store.
The weather is getting warm here in Southern California. I love opening the windows and sitting outside in the backyard again. I am sprucing up my home for summer with the help of some frugal finds at Dollar Tree.
Dollar Tree DIY home decor is easy, fun and best of all - inexpensive!
These are some of the things I recently discovered there. It's worth checking out so that you can update your decor easily without spending lots of money,
I found these pretty mats, colorful stones and white rocks, all for $1 each.
There were also these candles and glass candle holders.
And this is what I did with them.
Dollar Tree DIY Spring Project Tutorial
Supplies Needed
All of these supplies were purchased from the dollar store.
- Colorful Rocks or stones
- Votives
- candles - you can use real or battery operated candles
- burlap ribbon - I used blue for a coastal look, but you can use other colors.
- Glass or ceramic tray - for placing candles on
- scissors
- hot glue gun and glue stick
Project Steps
Step 1- I wrapped the glass containers with some burlap ribbon and cut them to size.
Step 2 - I secured them with hot glue.
Step 3 I placed candles inside the holders.
Step 4I took the wrapped candles and set them on a long tray and added white rock to the tray.
I just love how they look and how easy they were to put together!
I made some other things with my dollar store finds, so be sure to follow my blog so you do not miss those posts.

If you have a minute to spare I'd be thrilled if you could link this post up to my weekly Say G'Day Linky party which has just started. This would be a great addition!
