Sometimes, the most stunning pieces of decor come from the simplest materials. This DIY rope basket, reminiscent of those found at Pier 1, is a perfect example. It’s a delightful surprise that such a stylish basket can be crafted at home using items that are much more affordable.
For this creative Dollar Tree home decor project, gather these materials: Cotton Piping, Plastic Bins, and White Spray Paint (optional, in case your basket isn’t white).
Begin by deciding on the color scheme for your basket. If you fancy a pristine white look, leave the cotton piping as is. For a pop of color, dip the cotton piping in any paint color that suits your decor.
Next, using a hot glue gun, start wrapping the cotton piping around the plastic planting basket. Ensure the piping is secure as you craft your way around the basket.
The finished product is a charming, handcrafted rope basket perfect for storing throw blankets, magazines, kids’ toys, or even as a stylish plant holder. This Dollar Tree DIY project highlights the potential of Dollar Tree items to become high-end looking home decor pieces. So why not give it a try and add a touch of handmade elegance to your home decor?

Dollar Tree DIY: Minimalist-Style Metal Wreath
One way to bring a minimalist style into your home is by creating a unique, metallic wreath using a Dollar Tree hula hoop.
For this Dollar Tree DIY project, you’ll need a hula hoop, rose gold spray paint, and a bit of greenery. Begin by spray painting the hula hoop rose gold. Allow it to dry completely, creating a sleek and modern metal-looking wreath base.
Next, attach your chosen greenery to the bottom side of the wreath. This subtle touch of greenery, juxtaposed with the rose gold, offers a minimalist yet chic look. This idea showcases how a simple hula hoop can be transformed into a stylish piece of decor. Hang this minimalist-style wreath on a wall or patio and enjoy the contemporary feel it brings to your space.
