How to Make a Dollar Tree Duster DIY Easter Wreath

The first thing you’re going to do to make this adorable Easter wreath is filet open your Dollar Tree dusters.

You need 7 dusters if you’re going to make a small wreath as I did, and luckily, they come in packs of 2 at Dollar Tree!

Once you have them all fileted open, you’re going to hot glue them onto the Dollar Tree wreath form. I really didn’t want a very big wreath for this project, so I went with a smaller wreath form than I usually use.

Place hot glue on each wire of the wreath form and press the dusters onto it. I used a butter knife to press the wreath down into the hot glue on the dusters and get a really secure bond.

I then pulled the edges of the duster over the side of the wreath form and hot glued it down to itself. Make sure that your wreath form is completely covered with the Dollar Tree dusters and you can’t see the wreath form underneath.

How to decoupage

Next, you’re going to decoupage the Dollar Tree paint your own bunny with a scrapbook pattern of your choice. First, I traced the shape of the bunny onto my scrapbook paper and cut it to shape.

Then, I applied a coat of Mod Podge to the wooden bunny and carefully placed the scrapbook paper.

You want to avoid creating any wrinkles or creases, but if they do form, you can use a rolling pin to smooth them out.

Allow the Mod Podge to dry (I used my heat gun to speed up the process), then apply another coat of Mod Podge over top of your bunny. This is going to help weather protect it if you plan to hang your wreath outside.

Next, I painted the wooden rectangle. I decided to go with pink, but the pink paint I had was a bit too bright for me.

To fix that, I mixed in just a little bit of Dixie Belle Fluff Chalk Paint to create a more pastel pink.

Bring it all together

Once the paint has completely dried on the wooden rectangle, it is time to secure it to the wreath.

To do this, I drilled three holes in the rectangle where it overlapped the wreath form underneath it. Then, I looped zip ties through the holes and secured them around the wreath form.

You can see the placement of the holes I drilled in the Facebook Live Video Replay. Next, I started bringing all the parts together.

I dry placed the Happy Easter lettering, decoupaged bunny, and three yarn carrots, then hot glued each piece in place. Let the glue dry, and you’re ready to decorate!
