How to Make a Dollar Store Christmas Cloche

Guys, this project will take you all of ten minutes to make.  TEN MINUTES!  I promise.  I whipped this up right before I had to go volunteer at my kids’ school library (I’m getting real friendly with the Dewey Decimal System, friends!) – easiest project ever!

Begin by spraying one side of the foam disc with spray adhesive.  Transform a dollar store ornament and other supplies into a pretty Christmas Cloche for your DIY Christmas decor! #dollarstore #dollartree #Christmasdecor

Then press some fake snow onto the disc.  Transform a dollar store ornament and other supplies into a pretty Christmas Cloche for your DIY Christmas decor! #dollarstore #dollartree #Christmasdecor

Next, cut two strips of 12″ woodgrain scrapbook paper to be a little wider than the edge of your disc.  (If you happen to have woodgrain paper that is longer than traditional 12″ scrapbook paper, you may only need to cut one strip of paper.)  Transform a dollar store ornament and other supplies into a pretty Christmas Cloche for your DIY Christmas decor! #dollarstore #dollartree #Christmasdecor

Fire up that hot glue gun and wrap the woodgrain paper around the edge of the foam disc.  Make the top edge of the paper flush with the edge of the foam disc that has the fake snow on it.  Then flip the disc over and trim the excess scrapbook paper from around the bottom edge of the foam disc.Transform a dollar store ornament and other supplies into a pretty Christmas Cloche for your DIY Christmas decor! #dollarstore #dollartree #Christmasdecor

Hot glue the church ornament to the foam disc (snowy side), and place the cylinder vase on top.  That’s all you need to make a cute Christmas Cloche for your holiday decor!  Transform a dollar store ornament and other supplies into a pretty Christmas Cloche for your DIY Christmas decor! #dollarstore #dollartree #Christmasdecor

I paired my cloche with these adorable ceramic houses that I found in Bullseye’s Playground at Target.  They don’t have them on their website, but here’s a link to similar ones on Amazon!  Transform a dollar store ornament and other supplies into a pretty Christmas Cloche for your DIY Christmas decor! #dollarstore #dollartree #Christmasdecor

I just love the simplicity of these little houses.  (My kids asked me 89348 times if they could paint them.  NO.  No, you may not paint my little white houses!)

This simple look is perfect for Christmas decor, or to be left out all winter.  Make sure to “pin it” so you’ll remember to make this for your seasonal decor!Transform a dollar store ornament and other supplies into a pretty Christmas Cloche for your DIY Christmas decor! #dollarstore #dollartree #Christmasdecor
