Dollar Tree crafts are a great way to update your teens decor without breaking the bank and give them something creative to do. Also, you’ll love my page Fall Season Unit Study {Pumpkins, Leaves, Corn, & More}.

The variety of supplies they have now is amazing, be it seasonal or basics that can be used every day.

I am surprised time and again at the fantastic variety of craft supplies at Dollar Tree.

 All you need to do is wander up and down the aisles and you are going to find plenty of great items to use for seasonal or everyday crafts.

One super cute way to add a little personality to your teens door is to let them create fun fall fairy garden themed wreath to hang.

While they did have lots of little fairies as well as other accessories like furniture at Dollar Tree, we wanted to create something for older kids and teens and have it look as if the fairies are returning anytime.

Dollar Tree Crafts Learning Idea

If you want to turn this craft into a learning experience, make it an assignment before or after a nature walk and include a good nature book like Nature Anatomy.

It has lots of information on things like Foraging in the woods. . .

How to Make a Fun Fall Fairy Garden Wreath

I was able to get all the components for my wreath from Dollar Tree.

From the foam wreath form to the cute little mushrooms, they had it all.

But you can gather moss, small pebbles, and twigs from outside to give your wreath more of a natural look and save a little bit of money.

Attach the ribbon on one end of the wreath with hot glue, hold it in place until it cools.

Continue wrapping the ribbon around the wreath, slightly overlapping the edges until it is completely covered, cut off the excess.

There will only be a small piece left at the end, but you can put it aside and make a bow out of it if you like.

Next, hot glue silk leaves along the bottom to recreate the look of a forest floor.

Draw a door and windows with a marker on the stem of the mushrooms.

Then it makes them resemble little fairy houses.

Allow the marker to dry before you move on to the next step.

Hot glue the mushrooms onto the wreath, gluing at every touchpoint to make sure it’s attached well.

Continue gluing on small items like flowers, mini pumpkins, moss, sticks and small pebbles.

Make your little homes look lived in and as if they are waiting for their occupants to return home.

Finally, use lettering to spell out fall, a name, welcome, or anything they would like.

We already had plenty of these scrabble tiles on hand but you could use stickers or leave them off altogether.

Cheap & Pretty Make up brush holders

I always try to do things cheaply. It's a curse really. Sometimes I come up with an idea and go "that will work" even though it isn't the most pleasing to look at. Such was the case with my makeup brush holder.

Tutorial: Anthropologie-Inspired Mirror » Dollar Store Crafts

I found my mirror at Goodwill for just 99 cents, but I see large rectangular mirrors at Dollar Tree all the time. You might just have some old, inexpensive mirrors already in your home that need an update. I purchased my flowers at Dollar Tree, but, again, you might have some old ones at home that you’re ready to part with.

Flat Iron Holder

I love the never ending crafts you can make with a pot holder. To turn a pot holder into a Flat Iron Holder, I first found this cute polka dot potholder at Dollar Tree.  Then I sewed up the side vertically and along the bottom.  And now maybe my new Chi will last as long as it should this time!
