Mini Hanging Lavender Spring Pots
These paper seed starting pots are perfect for filling with dollar store lavender flowers.
Materials
- seed starting paper flower pots (from the Dollar Tree)
- craft styrofoam
- pen
- penblade
- hole punch
- hot glue gun and hot glue
- faux lavender flowers
- wire cutters
- twine
- scissors
Instructions
- Use a pen to trace the top of a paper pot onto the styrofoam.
- Use a penblade to cut out the foam into a shape that fits into the paper pot. Cut the sides of the foam at an angle, so the foam sits nicely inside the paper pot.
- Punch two holes into the paper pot - on on each side.
- Stuff the foam into the paper pot.
- Cut apart the silk flower sprig. Push the leaves up higher in the stem towards the flowers. Then use wire cutters to cut apart each spring of flowers. Cut them down so they are short enough to fit nicely into the paper pot.
- Stick the flowers into the foam, and adjust until arranged nicely. Secure everything in place with hot glue.
- Hang by running twine through the two holes in the paper pot.

Oversized Rope Easter Eggs

Dollar Tree sells nautical decorative rope. Secure the rope with hot glue to wrap giant eggs.

Jumbo Rope Easter Eggs
Use dollar store nautical rope to transform jumbo styrofoam Easter eggs.
Materials
- nautical jute rope
- large foam Easter eggs
- hot glue gun and hot glue
- scissors
- twine
Instructions
- Cut the tag off the foam egg.
- Start at one end of the egg. Start with a big "blob" of glue on the end of the egg. Twirl an end of the rope and set in place.
- Continue to twirl the rope, securing with hot glue along the way at intervals of about 1-2 inches.
- At the end, replace the ribbon hanger with a loop of twine.
Notes
How much rope do I need to buy? I found that I could cover one large egg with about 1 1/3 packet of Dollar Tree rope. So 4 packets of rope for 3 large eggs.

- Flip the wreath form over, and secure across the back with just a bit more hot glue.
- Tie a bow with burlap ribbon. Secure the bow to the wreath form with twine.
I like all these crafts! I have a friend who decorates a tree all year long. I love the carrot wreath – would love to find enough carrots to make wreaths for my kitchen cabinets! So far, every Dollar Tree I’ve been in has sold out of the carrots. Hopefully they’ll get in more shipments!
The little paper pots with the purple flowers in them would look adorable hanging in a window or on a door. and, I adore the signs you’ve made for your tree! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much, Barbara! Have a fantastic week 🙂
I like your Spring Tree! I have a 6′ Grapevine tree that I decorate with 3 different themes, per year. It is absolutely loved by everyone that comes to our home. My husband and son built me a 2×4, t-pee frame. Then, we took a brad nail-er and nailed the grapevine as we wrapped the vine around the tree. I live in a Log-Timber-frame home so the tree fits our style. Thank you for sharing your Spring tree.
