Farmhouse Mini Rolling Pins
These mini rolling pins are one of the most popular items in my shop and on Instagram. I created a video sharing how to make farmhouse mini rolling pins and they are been so popular that I put together this post sharing how to DIY Mini Rolling Pins. You will find a video and printable instructions to make wood mini rolling pins and the best place to buy mini wood rolling pins in this article.
I use my Cricut machine to make decals for mini rolling pins and I sell the decals in my shop. If you don’t have a Cricut or Silhouette machine, you can still make these mini rolling pins by using stickers from Dollar Tree or purchasing the decals from my shop.
If you’re curious (or in a hurry)…
They are an excellent brand and yet, you’ll also find that it is one of the cheapest options you’ll find online.
The Rae Dunn Mini Rolling Pins are the most popular so all of my mini rolling pins have the Rae Dunn font. I like to decorate my inspired by Rae Dunn mini rolling pins on a tiered tray with other Rae Dunn items.
In this tutorial, I share how to make farmhouse mini rolling pins by using alphabet stickers or a circuit machine.
I like to paint my mini rolling pins to match our home decor and the current season.
I offer 100+ different decals in my shop, however, I do not offer custom decals at this time.
You can also find Etsy sellers that offer the entire rolling pin already made with the decal, but these mini rolling pins are so easy to Do It Yourself, you will save so much money!
Does Dollar Tree sell Mini Rolling Pins?
Unfortunately, Dollar Tree does not sell mini rolling pins. I can’t find a regular rolling pin on their website either.
How Do You Make a Mini Rolling Pin?
I purchase the plain wood rolling pins online here and then I decorate them with paint, decals, and ribbon.
I highly recommend purchasing the craft mini rolling pins online because they are very popular and are always sold out in stores. The wood mini rolling pins come in a package of 3 and I recommend purchasing multiples 😉
What do you do with Mini Rolling Pins?
You may be wondering what is the purpose of a mini rolling pin. That’s okay 🙂 Many people use them in their home decor on tiered trays. shelf decor, and table decorations.
I share some images in this post and on my Instagram page with ideas to use mini rolling pins in your home decor.
