DIY Dollar Tree Bless This Home Fall Sign

Image
This DIY Bless This Home Fall sign is so adorable and easy to make using Dollar Tree products. This craft cost me all of $4. I did have some of the supplies already in my craft arsenal but even so, it’s a fraction of what you would pay for something similar at Hobby Lobby or some other home store. Prep Time 5 minutes      A ctive Time 15 minutes        Drying Time 30 minutes        Total Time 50 minutes       Difficulty Easy SUPPLIES YOU WILL NEED: Dollar Tree pizza pan Dollar Tree round fall sign Dollar Tree Rope Glue gun and glue stick Chalk Paint in white Faux leaves Paintbrush INSTRUCTIONS Paint the pizza pan white with chalk paint. You really only need to paint the edges. Let dry completely. Glue the round sign in the middle of the pan.  Glue the rope inside the edge of the pan. Arrange the leaves at the top of the pan/sign and glue them. If you are hanging this, you can use the twine that was originally on the sign and glue it to the back. I suggest not using the glue gun be

Make sure the can is clean and dry. Place the candle into the can/pot. Heat the water to melt the candle wax. Drop a few drops of essential oils in the hot wax and stir. (Below are some essential oils you may use if you would like to keep the mosquitos away.) Line the bottom of the tin with wax paper. Stand the cardboard tubes up on the end in the cookie tin.   Stuff some lint into each tube. Leave a bit of room to tuck the wax paper in. Ca

I do remember having menstrual pain and taking meds for relief but I wished I had a more natural way to help me.

So, it’s no surprise that cinnamon oil also fights inflammation and reduces menstrual pain.  In fact, a 2013 study looked at the effect
