I love it when inspiration strikes when I’m shopping at Dollar Tree. I came across some burner covers and thought they would be perfect to use at a tiered tray DIY since they come in a package of 2 with one slightly larger than the other. If you’re a fan of tiered tray ideas and tiered tray styling, you will love this post with this DIY dollar store tiered tray!
Tiered trays have become all the rage over on Instagram. I feel like everyone has a tiered tray in their home decor already, but if you don’t, you will love this easy tiered tray DIY. I learned how to make a tiered tray from inspecting my own farmhouse tiered tray (that I paid $40 for back in 2014). You may have seen the over-priced hobby lobby tiered trays but I’m here to tell you that you don’t need to over-pay for a tiered tray because tiered trays are simple to DIY and look just as good at the expensive tiered trays!
How to make a $1 tiered tray
This #5minute craft is so fun and can be made in minutes for less than $1!
Supplies:
- Dollar Tree burner covers (comes in 2-pack for $1)
- Cardboard tube (mine is the insert from Cricut Vinyl rolls)
- Glue gun
- Black sharpie (to give it that farmhouse look)
- Paper cutter or sharp scissors
- Everything pictured on the tray at the end of the video was all $1 each too!
Directions:
- Gather Supplies. I used a 2-pack of Dollar Tree burner covers for $1 total.
- Cut the cardboard tube in half.
- Use a glue gun to attach the top and bottom of the cardboard tube to the middle of the burner covers.
- You want to glue them so you have a tray on the top and bottom with the white side on top and design on the bottom.
- Cut 3 small”feet” from the tube.
- Glue gun the feet to the bottom of the tray.
- You can leave the “feet” off and paint the entire thing if you want but I left mine as is.
Happy Crafting! ????
