    Easy DIY Stamped Wood Block Ornaments

    This is one of those projects that I did­n’t total­ly come togeth­er until the very end. At first, the plain ole wood blocks do not look that impres­sive.

They are made of pine, and can eas­i­ly be stained or sand­ed. A stamp set, paint, sand­pa­per and some string are all you need to com­plete these lit­tle gems!

    DIY Charcuterie Board Ornament

    I picked up this pack of 2 mini char­cu­terie boards from the Tar­get Dol­lar spot back in the Spring not real­ly know­ing what I had planned for them.

I pulled them out and rec­og­nized, for the first time, that they had the per­fect lit­tle orna­ment shape! Thus, the DIY char­cu­terie board orna­ment idea was born. After grab­bing a few more sup­plies from stash, I was ready to get crafty. I have includ­ed a list and Ama­zon affil­i­ate…

I real­ize many Dol­lar Tree loca­tions have dif­fer­ent assort­ments of sup­plies but hope­ful­ly you can take this tuto­r­i­al, and allow it to inspire you to cre­ate your own ver­sion. What­ev­er that may look like. I am pro­vid­ing a list of the sup­plies I used for ref­er­ence when plan­ning your own project. Begin your…
