Dollar Store Ornament

I have become more and more fond of the dollar store over my crafting years. It is amazing how many projects I have been able to find all of the supplies for at the dollar store. That is the closest place to me that has crafty supplies. Then my next stop is usually Walmart. To get to a full on craft store I have a bit to drive so I usually save that for special supplies. Luckily the dollar store has me covered and I have been stopping there on the daily for Christmas stuff. Just kidding….kind of. I made these adorable fairy garden ornaments all from a few dollar store supplies. They were really, really easy to make and have such a pretty whimsical feel. I’ve seen all kinds of fairy gardens but never in ornament form. It was time for a fairy garden ornament!

What you need to make them:

clear ornaments

small faux flowers

faux moss or greenery

small pebbles

butterfly or fairy decoration

1. Fill the ornament about a third of the way full with the moss. You can spread it around by using the end of a pen or pencil.
2. Add small pebbles or rocks.
3. Add 2 small faux flowers.
4. Hot glue a butterfly or fairy to the outside of the ornament.

Such a simple pretty, girly project! I really love how these ornaments turned out! Find more fun dollar store projects below.
