The next time you are in Dollar Tree, grab some of these supplies to make these brilliant Christmas Crafts! Not only are they affordable, but they turn out gorgeous, especially the last project!
Christmas Tree Countdown
Have you ever seen the wooden dice at Dollar Tree? Turn those dice into a Christmas Tree countdown.
Once glued together, they make a very sturdy piece. Paint it the color of your choice, and add stickers for the days. You can add them to the front, back, and the sides!
Glue three Dollar Tree wooden stars together to glue to the top, with an additional star to move through the days. I used an adhesive glue dot on the back, it is easy to move, and won’t damage your paint or stickers.
Santa Chip Brushes
Using different sized chip brushes, paint each of the handles and give them different designs using a paint pen.
Glue fur around the metal portion of the brushes, add eyes, and tiny pom pom noses, to create unique Santa brushes.
Video instructions on how to make each of these brilliant Christmas crafts, can be found here.
Wood Slice Snowman
Glue two wood slices together, and use the third as a base for the cutest snowman.
The scarf and stocking cap are made from a pair of baby socks from Dollar Tree.
Light Up Nativity Sign
This next brilliant Christmas craft is my absolute favorite in todays post!
All of the supplies for this project came from Dollar Tree, except the musical scrapbook paper. It was purchased at Hobby Lobby.

Sharing Christmas crafts you can create using household wood items. These are so fun and inexpensive to make!
Create these to use as decor or give as gifts. They would also make a great addition to sell at craft shows.
Christmas Crafts Using Wooden Spoons
You can find inexpensive wooden spoons at Dollar Tree or in my case Dollar General. At the time I purchased them, Dollar General was having a buy one get one half off sale, and I love when I can save some money!
Create one of kind Christmas decor by simply hand painting a snowman face. If you prefer, you could use your vinyl cutting machine to create a face decal.
Use your favorite pattern of fabric to create a scarf and bow for the stocking cap.
I created a set of three different designs to coordinate together. I made sure to paint each of the wooden spoons and turner the same color, nutmeg brown.
Get creative with their facial expressions, like this cute gingerbread man.
Using a wooden turner, I created a Santa face.
You can create the faux beard by stippling the white paint onto the turner.
As cute as they are separately, they really come to life together!
To see how I painted each of their faces, watch the video tutorial HERE.
Christmas Crafts Using Mini Charcuterie Boards
Mini charcuterie boards can be found at Hobby Lobby for only a few dollars.
By adhering a napkin with a vintage look to it, you can create a beautiful piece to display or even use as an ornament.
Add a ribbon bow and a piece of greenery to complete the look.
Use a musical sheet of scrapbook paper and a wooden nativity set from Dollar Tree to create this stunning piece.
I made sure to paint the sides of the board to match the nativity pieces.
