50 BEST EVER CHRISTMAS DOLLAR TREE DIY PROJECTS!!!🎄

[@SusieBohannon-t1f]

Just just wanted to let you know Angel I love all your DIY‘s specially the pinecone tree I’m 62 years old. My name is Susie Bohannon. I live in Euharlee Georgia. I’ve got a few projects that I’ve done Reeves with fireplaces in it with lights. I just love everything you do and you have a wonderful, rest of your day God bless

[@michellesimons7208]

I painted the inside of clear ornament bulbs with the 50 cent liquid acrylic paints from walmart. Great fun for kids to create their own ornament.

[@lindafaucz9428]

You always have great ideas but I think your right ....your pinecone tree is gorgeous. Very rich and elegant in a rustic way

[@Leealee1373]

Praise the living King Jesus. Bless that little baby, sweet angel. God is so real. ❤

Just an FYI from a woodworker of over 25 + years. One thing about using two different glues is that if you overlap them, like E6000 and hot glue, it changes the chemical composite of the glues and they WILL NOT work where there was any overlap. If you use two different glues, us woodworkers use wood glue and super glue or E6000 together all the time for the exact reason crafters do, but we never ever overlap them. Your items will still adhere in the areas where the glues have not touched each other. This has bothered me so much because almost every crafter, but maybe one that I have seen specifically say this to her viewers, doesnt know this about glues and they pass on through their videos that you can overlap them and in all actuality over time the bond will fail. I do love this channel. You were the first crafter I ever subscribed to. Watching you makes me want to start a channel so bad and by watching you, I purchased a Cricut and am ADDICTED! I have used it in many of my new wood products and I live how it has enhanced my products. Thanks, Liz!! So glad I started watching you!

[@ilovenoodles7483]

Wow! Thanks

[@patriciawoodland1406]

Thank you for the info.

[@TorchAndWillowDesigns]

@ilovenoodles7483 absolutely! Anytime and you're very welcome!

[@TorchAndWillowDesigns]

@patriciawoodland1406 you're so very welcome. If you ever have any questions you can ask me anytime and I'll answer to the best of my knowledge. I'm actually thinking of making DIY tutorial KZbin channel of my own. This channel inspires me to do so much!

[@Nana1959.]

Thank you so much for your wisdom . It’s very frustrating when diy projects don’t hold together!

[@junerobbins6871]

I love the pinecone tree. Its my favorite !! I gathered pinecones from outside. Then read that to kill any critteres that might be in them to bake them for several minuets. Ive forgotten what temp to preheat the oven. I followed all of the instructions, but forgot thst they were still in there. They burned and i had to start over. 😢 I love the cinnamon stick trees. I've seen these made with many pieces of ribbon til it's really tight leaving enough of the cinnamon stick showing fir a trunk. Then trim the ribbons into the shape of a tree. I love the faux tile ornaments!!

[@kimhavey7850]

With the matchsticks, you should glue a circle of sandpaper to the bottom of the bottle. They sell sandpaper at Dollar Tree as well. 😊

[@lizfenwickdiy]

Great idea!

[@jojosmumdorothy2829]

I was thinking something similar make a sandpaper gift tag glue some card on the back and shape it into any Xmas shape you like.

[@DeborahAdkins-in9yi]

​@@jojosmumdorothy2829z

[@autumn7031]

Oh yes, I was thinking same thing to the top so you can strike the match, or, take the strike patch off a larger box of matches and glue it to the top.

Hey, I'm having mostly White on my Christmas Tree. I love "painting the deer," so I'm going to paint my deer White. Thank You for sharing a great idea.

[@bobbiek2960]

These are so beautiful, all of them❤ I buy fall and christmas placemats. Hot glue them (fall/Christmas) together and call them a “flip pillow”. Fall on one side and christmas on the other, flip it between holidays.

[@hopetennill4892]

The bowl with trees and plate was so so cute.

[@lizfenwickdiy]

Thanks!

[@lindasmall4317]

Love it also

[@TorchAndWillowDesigns]

I was thinking for the "gingerbread" stars that you could put spackle in a piping bag and make the same shapes as you did with the paint but it would look like you piped on real royal icing! 😊

[@NikkiRN-CLC]

Or even caulk maybe?

[@TorchAndWillowDesigns]

​@@NikkiRN-CLC absolutely!!!!

[@BumblingBee-xm4dy]

11:04 could totally spray paint the Base and dowl rod flat-/matte-gold, spray paint all the cones white or off-white, then hand-paint all the pinecone edges with gold leaf

[@sallystith7260]

Love your vid. There are several I am going to try. I did have a suggestion for your pillow stuffing. If you want to use the fiber fill stuff, get a cheap pillow and use its stuffing. Same stuff for lesser price.

[@evelinagarcia7430]

Buy a cheap canvas to put under your candle paint pour. Now you have an abstract picture that matches your decor.🎉 You can also add the rest of the paint. Now there's not much waste of paint.😊😁

[@richiesmom12]

I love the pottery barn candle recreation but I would just use the wax melts and 3 wicks instead of the tea lights so you can use it longer. Great job!

[@AZJH8374]

Everything you make is beautiful, as are you! ❤❤❤ thanks for sharing ❤❤❤

[@sobeitone3336]

A tip for the faux mercury ornament used a can of compressed air to move the Spray paint around and it also helps it dry quicker

[@martina21953]

The pine cone tree brought back fond memories of my grandparents. One year, my grandfather made a large pine cone Christmas tree that he built on a frame and chicken wire. I used it for literally decades!

[@glendawente7317]

I made one decades ago using a dense foam life preserver.

[@lindaharrison780]

I love the berry garland card holder. So talented.

[@debbiepasleygray9301]

For the bell candle, why did you use tea light candles instead of candle wicks? The short wicks on the tea lights will waste the rest of the candle.

[@sheiladowney5644]

Spray paint bowls before you add the melted wax. Great projects!

[@dirtydoormat123]

Everything you makes looks awesome. Better than the ones you get at the stores.

[@joannewatson1129]

Love your work! Taper candles can give a lot of wax and a longer wic to reuse

[@rea8755]

Merry Christmas!! Thanks to Evelyn for outsmarting the developers; and providing this beautiful historic community gathering home.

[@-LivingProof]

The metallic ornaments were very pretty, but considering one can of the metallic spray paint costs between $13-$15 I'm not sure how much more cost effective it was. All in all your projects are really creative and fun.

[@AZJH8374]

You're awesome! I love your channel. God Bless you and your family! Many prayers 🙏🏻 ❤️. What does a turkey say to the hunter? "Quack quack" Happy Thanksgiving! Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister!

[@jillsipocz3582]

The pinecone tree reminds me of a pinecone wreath we had when I was a kid in the 70's. I love your style.

[@lindamontemarano3638]

Liz, I love the match idea and all of your ideas in this podcast. I personally did the matches myself as well, but several months ago. But I was thinking that you forgot to add the striker to it. I cut the striker off the box, and I glued it to the bottom of my jar that contained the matchsticks. It's just something for you to think about.

[@dawesy1748]

I love your ideas and how you create beautiful decorations but for me, I’m still doing Christmas with a blast of colour! I have all of the Disney ornaments and other bright things I have collected over the years and if it can go on the tree, it’s there. I use multi-coloured lights and decorations and leave the posh, high end look to the neighbours. If my house was as big as yours, I might go for colour coordinated decor and make it look as though it had been professionally decorated but as it is, everyone loves my attempt at Christmas. I will, however, use several of your ideas to raise the bar, so to speak, on previous years’ decorations. Keep up the very good work. 😀🎄

[@katsgreatlife3171]

For the candle bells use the silver dog bowls looks great

[@adunning790]

To the bottom of your match stick holder, add the strike piece from the box so you don’t have to go searching when you want to light a candle.

[@cyndimanka]

Those long pine cones are sugar pine. My favorite. I collect all kinds. I also have sequoia ones. Really cool😊

[@saraream133]

The runners on the sleds are upside down! Get it together, Dollar Tree! 🛷

[@RobynCoburn]

The pine cone tree is my favorite. Imagine some tiny wire led lights on it. The decoupage snowflakes are also lovely. This whole video is a series of winners actually.

[@kmoore6105]

Liz, maybe next time with the bells roll out some air dry clay and imprint a sweater pattern into clay then adhere to the bells and paint. This way you can cover the top hole.

[@Michelle-kf6mi]

I love your style. My favorite style was the bells hanging over the stocking. Looked so simplistic and classy. I would definitely like to be considered for the extra set of stockings. I look forward to the next video and good luck to everyone being considered for the stockings ❤

[@juliebessett8127]

I'm in awww of your determination. I would have bailed before the thought to continue entered my mind. God bless you!!! Continue your love!!! ❤️🎚

[@cyndimanka]

I’ve used the Christmas trees from dollar tree for many years. But I put two together. I just pull the base off one and stick them together and use the branches to water them together to make them Fuller.

[@Pattyaguilo]

Hello!! I love your advent vlog videos. Day 17 was exceptional to say the least. Your holiday gift was superb and advent day 5 & 17 were so good. The Tuma and the Dior giveaway red velvet bag .......❤ Good luck everyone

[@denisef3228]

I loved the glass bulb ornaments that you sprayed with metallic paints! I am going to do that craft for sure! Thanks for all the great ideas, Liz ❤

[@mist4926]

You can make those wreath bells with toilet paper rollls

[@KellyJean-gj5fu]

I was wondering for 2YEARS how to make a duplicate...THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH!!

[@mellissayutzy8768]

Girl you amaze me! Come decorate my home! I am at a loss with all the stuff I have collected since 1987!!!!!

[@tammychilds3260]

I just love watching your videos and getting ideas..the balloon pop paintings were awesome..soo expensive looking..and so many more crafts..the door stop was just as pretty and less than 1/2 the price..lol For the marbling..Instead of using skewers…you can also use a hair dryer on cool to move the paint around.. I would like to see you do a 3D sea scape painting..making rocks using brushed on concrete on the canvas..those are very pretty.. I am subscribed and get caught up watching your videos for hours..keep up the good work!!

[@StephanieGrealis]

I’m back on this video for the 2nd time so I can make my craft shopping list! 😂 Love all the crafts but if I had to pick, I think the pinecone tree is my favorite!

[@DawnDavidson]

On the wrapped stars … I actually liked it when you had just the arms covered, and you turned it over so that the center wood parts showed. That was lovely! Maybe try stopping at that point sometimes on purpose. :)

[@francesmason4768]

I went to my dollar tree today and picked up a lot of items . I got 2 of the 4 foot candy canes for my front door. I'll send you a picture of it when I get finished. Thank you so much for all the cool ideas.

[@kelliealley7418]

I really love how you are detail oriented. Your craft always look like store baught!

[@shirleykathan-sayess5764]

The pine cone tree is gorgeous!!! You are so creative. I can always count on you for great ideas. ❤ SayessDesign

[@mommygarcia9137]

New subbie here ! Simple but beautiful projects you create ! Was wondering if you can diy any boho Christmas decorations using burlap twine wood items from dollar tree ! Would love to see your creativity in boho decor !

[@janjones4772]

Love everything you’ve done,it’s beautiful. You are so talented and so creative, great imagination ♥️👍wish I had one inch of your talent. Thanks so much for sharing, all great are just beautiful ♥️👍👍👍👍👍👍♥️♥️

[@odalysgonzalez2847]

All of them are pretty but the one I like is the pine

[@Gypsyjonescafe]

I love the terra cotta, beige & white ornaments! I’m going to do those, along with painting the bells terra cotta, beige & white and maybe even the nutcrackers & reindeer would look adorable as well! It will be a very upscale boho Christmas palette!

[@deaneclark6469]

All of your diys are awesome, as always, Liz!😊 I love all of your diy projects!❤ The snowflake is gorgeous! Just a suggestion for your snowflake using napkins & mod podge...when you add your napkin on top of your snowflake following the mod podge, cut slips like you did, then use a lighter to light one section of the napkin. It gets into all of those nukes & crannies.😊 The mod podge must be wet for this technique to work.😊 I really love your domes with the pinecone trees!😊 Everything turned out beautifully, as always!❤ As always, Liz, thank you for sharing all of your hard work, creativity, talent, and inspiration! Stay safe, healthy, and positive! God bless you and your family!🙏❤️🇺🇸😊🌲

[@lauriepayseur5897]

For bigger bells you could use dollar tree cloche they have in spring time for plant starters and then use one ply of the nautical rope for the rings and the round puffy stickers for the “nail head” around the bottom edge.

[@lizfenwickdiy]

Thank you!!! This is a great idea.

[@valerieallison8055]

Oh my goodness. Great ideas. I love them all. Can't pick a favorite. Thank you

[@georgannebeck1293]

I used the adhesive spray on my butt to hold my posing suit in place when I do bodybuilding contests so the suit doesn’t creep and slide. Works great 😆

[@sharijackson6149]

The bells could work with dollar tree planters and use a bobble to hang on the inside to make it look more like a bell.

[@jodiesmith8848]

Loved this whole video…going to put on a simmer pot this evening!

[@ginamacdougall9012]

It would be a good idea to be mindful of the storage of crafting supplies and the disposal of crafting bits and cleaning equipment.

[@leewillers4621]

What great Ideas! Im not crafty at all, but I could actually do some of these! Thanks so much Liz for all of the great ideas that you show!❤❤❤

[@bunny7403]

The painted canvas witih the snowflakes would made cute placemats and napkins - with smaller stars, of course...

[@loriThomas-fx4xr]

I love your diy ideas. It has inspired me to get started. The kids want to help.

[@vickiemeisinger9632]

Thank you for this wonderful video. I can do not to do “crafts”, as I am an artist. but I was looking for ideas because my family was large with 12 children but now we’ve got married and had our children and then some of have grown up….. that makes four generations of Christmas ornaments that I’m always looking for new ideas because we have to make somewhere between 40 and 50, so I watched your video and it’s entirety and I found your ideas very clever and I definitely am going to make some for my own home after watching your video. Thank you so much and I will look forward to your next videos because I did subscribe to your channel. Have a great week.😊

[@Kathryn-o5f]

The pine cone tree is one of the best hacks I’ve seen in awhile, thank you! I’ll be putting fairy lights on mine. ❤❤❤

[@lizcollins723]

Calling from The Bahamas🇧🇸 My family and others used pine trees for Christmas and cones for decorations, I loved that it always smelled like Christmas.

[@trinapemberton]

Hey Liz I’m just watching this cuz I’d seen it last year, boy I forgot alot of them. I have a diy I’d love help with. Or someone to invent. I want blow up big ornaments, not for the yard, but for my tree to save storage space. I want Metallics only. I mean they’re good for every Christmas even when i change color schemes. Like 8-10 inch ones. Maybe some 6 inch ones too! Then you can easily buy/make 4 inch ones. I love using big bell ornaments inside my tree!

[@giorgimartinez781]

I wonder if you could blow up round metallic balloons? but you would have to do it every year… I know they sell some really nice inflatable ones but they’re pretty expensive. (I saw them on shark tank). They were super big though for outdoor use. I’m sure they make 8-10” ones for trees somewhere though. Good luck with your search lol!

[@sunnyartist1785]

I love the snowman idea with the glass bowls. So stinking cute!!

[@deeholbrook8951]

As far as I'm concerned, you are the undisputed queen of painting and staining.

[@patriciaforan4789]

You are so clever! I can’t wait to try making some of these crafts. I’m still working on a few Fall DIYs. I absolutely love the pine cone tree. I’m always collecting pine cones, but never have many ideas on what to do with them. Now I know. Thank you for this great video. 😊

[@lizfenwickdiy]

Thank you for watching!

[@Notallwhowanderful]

Loving the pine cone tree. I made one in the past using a foam cone base. Held the glued cones a little easier than maybe the dowel did. Love the look!

[@lizfenwickdiy]

Thank you so much!

[@lisadixon-gt5ej]

Adorable Christmas decor, LOVE THEM ALL❤

[@MurielMoore-c4v]

You didn’t mention drying the pine ones you found outside. Mine are always damp. I put them in a slow oven (200 degrees) for an hour or less until open and dry. Plus side your house smells wonderful!

[@thekingofgames6293]

Love your ideas! I just had a thought of the tree that you flocked. That made me think of getting some spray adhesive (i dont think DT has that though, i could be wrong) and spray the tree with thay, then take some faux snow and sprinkle it afterwards? It'd be messy, but thats part of the fun i think. ❤

[@mariet6805]

That red Christmas ornament on your tree, did you make that or buy it? It's beautiful! The red one with the white on it and looks like it has the chunky clear stuff over it.

[@wandabeal1414]

I love the terra cotta, beige and white ornaments.

[@kimberlykirkman970]

The pinecone tree is my favorite. Lot of great ideas.

[@bubbydumas]

When I paint the insides of ornaments I use an empty egg carton so they drain out cleanly. But watch out if you have a cardboard egg carton, you should also put something underneath that because sometimes the drained paint will seep through the carton. Hope this tip is helpful for you! Rose

[@vickiemeisinger9632]

I also use egg cartons to get my ornaments to drain out any excess paint that might be inside. I have found that they don’t make a mess if you put them in the egg carton and also you don’t mess up any painting on the outside if you have some. I’ve tried other different Things over the years but I have found that the egg carton works the very best so thank you to Bubby Dumas… great minds, think a like❣️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@clairemillette4645]

De bien belle décoration, merci de partager votre savoir-faire ❤👍🥰🎄🎁🐧🥳

[@gracehowell.]

We don't have Dollar Tree in Australia, but I've bought some bases for flat and 3D baubles. I'll probably use Christmas paper to decoupage them, and maybe some stencils in black, gold, or silver. I saw some ceramic decoration bases, which I'm sure you'd find a good use for! Some of them were bone-shaped. They'd be lovely for a pet decoration.

[@rivchick]

To do mercury glass easier spray or paint the out side and then spay alcohol on top of the paint while still wet and blot. Wayyyyy easier and faster

[@doliver65]

I love all of your DIYs & hacks. I really enjoy your channel & look forward to many more inspirational ideas.

[@MarieDani.]

Love the pottery barn candle dupe recreation using the dollar tree bowls 😍

[@claudinem576]

Did you not take the tag off before you painted the bowls?

[@msheidiyodel]

Yarn stars!!! we actually made yarn hearts for Valentines, but I just cut the hearts out of cardboard which was free! Edit to add: I would pour paint on the white candles to for the antlers just so there was a contrast

[@jojosmumdorothy2829]

🎉ive got a cheap idea hope you like it? I brought alot of gold,beige white and transparent balls that you use in kiddies ball pits. And use glitter coloured sticky foam to decorate i then cut up two large cardboard circles and string the balls at dif lengths through holes then glue the 2nd circle on top and decorate as you wish. Cheap and looks like a chandelier. Hope you like my idea xx

[@lgcushman9154]

Love it!!! Can't wait to make an angel jacket and a headband.

[@angelicamartinez323]

It is simply, lovely. Thanks for sharing 😊

[@alldaymusiclover107]

All the crafts were great. Now I have to decide which to make. Thank you, Liz.

[@angeliabyrge1971]

Really enjoy your spunky attitude and love to watch the new finds😊

[@atred26]

These are really great ideas. However, as a professional candle maker, I am going to urge everyone to NOT do the bell candle the way it was described and demonstrated. Wax melts have sometimes almost double the amount of fragrance oil that candles do because they are not intended to be set on fire. You will quickly create a little fire starter for your home if you are not careful. Also I would be careful of what kind of vessel your " candle" is made in. There's a good chance that the paint used in the ceramic is not flame resistant. And then add on top of that, the flammable metallic spray paint on the outside of the bowl in the event that the fragrance oil from the wax melt catches on fire. There are plenty of DIY candle kits from reputable candle supply sellers if you want to do this hack safely.

[@maryowens9179]

They were wonderful dupes and diys.i love the cone tree I'll be recreating that.thank you for sharing these with us. You did a great job ❤

[@lizfenwickdiy]

Thank you Mary!

Love all these ideas. If I may suggest to those getting Floetrol..make sure you don't use it in oil based paint.

[@denisesmelley8546]

The cork tiles would look nice with brown paint mirroring the snowflake pattern on the ceramic side.

[@melissamuse4486]

Great ideas 💡 Liz! I was thinking about the Christmas 🎄 tree soap 🧼 dispenser. I like the idea of painting it 1 color, like silver or gold. I do think maybe the pump should be either green or red instead of black. I think I'll try that so it matches my decor. Thank you!
