Tips to Make A Dollar Tree Farmhouse Tiered Tray
- Because you never know what’s going to go into your top tray and how much pressure that joint line between the parts might face, I recommend using glue a little sturdier than your typical hot glue. I like to use E6000 glue like this, even though it takes longer to dry, just to add a bit more hold.
- I love making crafts with Dollar Tree supplies, but if you run into trouble finding the the little wood craft at the dollar store, you can grab a similar one here. It’s not exactly the same, but it’s close enough that you’ll still love the way it looks.
- Personally, I love a good gnome on my farmhouse tiered tray. I just grabbed the nearest gnome on my shelf to add to my tiered tray for the photos, but when I get it all set up in my entryway, I am going to make a couple kissing gnomes to add to the top tier!
