A coat of primer really helps the final coat adhere to your frame a little better and have a smoother finish and then Next I'm going to do a finished coat of this bright sage green color. I love Rust-oleum paint. This is my favorite brand and I'm just going to add a really nice coat of paint to this frame. It was very cold outside. when I painted this I just wanted to give it a good coat and be done with it and then I took it inside to dry and this is what that finished coat looks like for this project.

You will also need a bottle. This is one. which I bought in the past at Dollar Tree, they have other different shapes of bottles in stores right now. You will also need some twine and I also bought this one at Dollar Tree, but you can use any twine you need. First I'm going to take a lot out of this thread. I think I got probably about 8 feet out and then I cut it off and then folded the thread in half so it had a loop on one end. I put the looped end around the mouth of the bottle and then ran my long strands of string through the loop so it was tied in place and then I added a little hot glue to hold that part in place and then wrapped the thread around around the bottle. of the bottle a couple of times I went to the top then I went back down to the bottom and then I went back up to the top again and then at the top of the bottle here I went ahead and just tied a simple and this is stays in place very well.

You can also glue this on with hot glue or hot glue to make sure it stays on your bottle. Next I'm going to add this to my frame, so I centered it on the frame and then started wrapping the twine. around the top of the frame, just make sure you have the bottle where you want it to hang each time you start this and then go ahead and wrap the rest of the thread around the top of the frame once you get to the end. your twine you can tie it in place on the back of the frame and then I went ahead and cut off the excess and hot glued the end of the twine so it would stay where it was supposed to last.

I'm going to add a little. from this floral from Dollar Tree, this is a newer one I discovered this year, I cut three stems and then slid them into the top of the bottle and here you can see what it all looks like finished. I just had it sitting on a shelf, you could also hang it on a wall, you could make a set of three of those and they would look great together, but I really like the way this one turned out next, you're going to need some of these planters. from Dollar Tree they come in packs of 2 and 3.
I'm going to paint just three of these pots, one of the larger ones and then two of the smaller ones, the other two pots. I'm going to leave this one. terracotta color and then I'm going to paint them with just a white primer. The nozzle on my flat white paint is broken so I just use this primer and that one worked fine and I went ahead and just added one coat with them down. and then when I was done with that, I turned them over and added another coat to the outside edges and then I sprayed them on the inside as well and this primer probably any type of spray paint will soak into these pots a little bit so that the finish doesn't It's super smooth and not super even and that's exactly how I wanted it to be and to finish off these pots it's very simple, you're just going to add some greenery on top.
This first one I bought here is from Walmart, but the rest came from Dollar Tree. I tried using some different greenery that I already had on hand, so I didn't want to go out and buy a bunch of new stuff or make sure everything came from Dollar Tree, but I just cut two or three stems from each of these and then just to bring them together and slide them into the top of the pot. I didn't glue them in place or use green foam, they stay in place very well depending on if you want them. If you want them to be permanent or if you want to reuse the greenery or pots later, you can glue them in place or use some green foam, but they work great just by placing them in the pot and you don't really notice there is anything. at the bottom of the pot.
I also saw online that Dollar Tree is supposed to get some larger sizes of these pots so I'm hoping to find some of them too to add along with these because I think some larger sizes would be great, I think they come in a single pot in instead of in a pack of two or three, and this last one is the only one I glued in place. I used this grass, it usually has these little butterflies on top but I already had this on hand so I grabbed a bunch and used a wire around the end to hold all the pieces in place and then used scissors to cut off the excess on the end so you can You'll want to hold it up in front of your pot to see exactly how long you want these grafts to be before you go ahead and cut them.
You can always cut them shorter too, so I added a little hot glue to the bottom of the pot and then glued the grass pieces together and pulled them out of the wire a little. I also added a little bit of hot glue in the center because I wanted them to stand up a little bit, but keep in mind that hot glue if you use it and it's very, very hot, it will also melt this greenery a little bit, so keep that in mind and I then added a smaller piece of wire around this greenery to try to hold the stems up and you can't really see the greenery. because it's all green down there in the pot anyway, so it helped keep this green grass stuck up and here you can see how they all turned out.
I really love how they look. I hope to find some larger pots. also so you can add them to the shelf and have a few different sizes and styles, some of them upright and some of them lying down. I feel like all of today's

DIYs are very simple and the following is another simple one that I chose. I upload one of these baskets, these are the newest ones they have for spring. I had a hard time finding them and I really wanted a gray one, but I could only find this dark blue one, so I'm going to go ahead and paint my basket gray.
I started with this gray primer so my finished coat would adhere to the basket a little better. I mainly focus on the outside of the basket and then the overspray that went through the sides of the basket covered the inside I did that too but I wasn't too worried about the inside being gray and then for the finished coat I will use this color satin stone gray, which is very similar to the gray they have in the baskets at the store. So if you find one of the cool baskets, you can use one of those or I just want you to know that you can paint these baskets any color you want.
I don't think they have white ones in the store so if you wanted a white or black one you could paint them any color just use a coat of primer first and then finish it with whatever color you want and then I brought them inside to dry and then this is what you see. As everything is finished then you will need some brown paper. I already had this brown wrapping paper on hand, but they sell rolls of brown paper at Dollar Tree or you can also use some paper bags. I cut them into pieces about twelve by twelve inches and then I also cut some short pieces of twine that I could use to tie this and then I picked up some flowers from Dollar Tree and what I'm going to do is wrap them inside this brown paper so they look like flowers fresh. that you just bought at a farmers market or a florist and they come in this brown paper.
I really like how they look and how the brown paper finishes them off and these are just a few different spring flowers I found. recently in the store also some greenery and I'm just going to use three different bundles of these, tie them all the same way and then to finish off I'm going to add them to this basket. I feel like it looks very Like if you came from the farmer's market or the florist and you brought home some flowers and you just wrapped them in the brown paper bag, you would elevate them a little bit to make them look a little more like real flowers, then I go.
Use some ribbon to make a bow for the front of this. This is a clearance tape that I bought at Walmart, but you can use any tape you find at Dollar Tree. A wire edge is better and I'm just going to be. I folded this into a loop so I just made a couple of loops and then I folded it again and made a few more loops and then in the center here I'm going to add a wire, I pinched the center and then I used a piece of wire that I already cut to twist around the center of this to hold the bow together, so I just twisted it back to hold it tight and then I'm going to take this ribbon and wrap it around the center. of the bow to finish off the center and cover that wire so I wrapped it around the bow once and then used that wire on the back to hold the ribbon in place and then took it out to be the second tail of the bow I cut it off and then I folded the end down so it was finished and then I'm going to add this to my basket so I added it directly to the center of the basket using that wire to hold it in place and then I fluffed the bow until I was happy with its appearance and here you can see what this finished project looks like.
You can add it to a shelf or mantel in the center of a table anywhere in your home that needs some. with a fresh floral appearance. I really love how it looks and was very happy with the result for today's last project. Let's make a wreath. I'm going to use one of these smaller wreath shapes. They come in a two-pack from Dollar Tree and I'm also going to use this 30-pack of heart mats. If you can't find these heart mats anymore, that's okay, you can also use regular round boilies. I already had these. I had on hand so I decided to use these and what you're going to do is accordion fold the bottom of this mat where the point is if you're using a round one you would just do it on one of the sides you're just going to do that so that it curls a little bit towards the bottom of the mat and then you will first slide it through the outer ring of your wreath and then glue it in place. on the back and these overlap about one and a half to two inches, each one overlapping the one next to it.
First I'm going to add these doilies around the outside edge of this wreath and you can use any color for these. Also, I really like the way the white looks and then if you get to a point where there's one of these metal support bars in the way you're going to accordion fold like normal for your Heart Boilie and then you can make a little slit in the bottom so it can go around it and you don't have to push it to one side or the other of that little supporting part. Here I wanted to go ahead and show you a little bit slower how I'm folding these mats in an accordion shape, so I started first in the center and folded them in half, then I folded them toward the center and then down so you can see that it gives this ruffled look once I finished adding the mats to the outermost ring. of the wreath shape and then I started with the middle ring and these I wobbled to the side just a little so that the heart shape wasn't perfectly aligned with the hearts that were on the outer ring of the wreath.
Do this with the round Dooleys as well, you'll just want to stagger them a little so they don't line up perfectly and lastly, I'm going to add the doilies to the centermost ring of the wreath shape again. I staggered them to the side just a little so they wouldn't line up with the heart mats on the two outer rings of the wreath shape and then these I shortened a little more too and then here you can see my kidney came To help me, she always It is very useful when it comes to crafting. He loves to lay on the table with me and sometimes throw things.
I finished the innermost ring of this wreath. You can also add a bow or some flowers in the center. of this wreath too, but I really like the way it turned out with just the lace doilies. I thought it gave it a very delicate look and I love the way this one turned out, so here you can see what it all looks like finished. I hung up. on my wall, this would also look great on a front door and you can make it in a much larger size too. Obviously you'll need a larger pack of mats or use larger size mats and I'm adding a short clip. of my kitten because he's too adorable not to share with you.
