Spring DIY Ideas

My friends and I are sharing easy spring DIY’s today! So many beautiful ways to bring the feeling of spring to YOUR home!

Turn Plain Frames into Trays

I found pre-built frames with deep sides which made them perfect to turn into trays. I added simple ball feet to the bottom of the frames by hot gluing them onto the corners of each frame.

Personalize Spring Stacking Trays with Paint

The next thing I did was spray paint the trays. I used a white chalkboard paint which has a matte smooth finish. You can use ANY color you want. If you love bold color, pick something that goes with your personality!

Add Scrapbook Paper for a Pretty Bottom

I used paper from my new Pebbles paper line — Reaching Out for the bottom of my trays.

My paper is available in March at JoAnn Stores. I am so excited!!

Decoupage Paper onto the Bottom of the Spring Trays

I painted the bottom of the trays with Mod Podge and then cut the paper to the size of each tray bottom. Then I laid each sheet of paper on top of the mod podge and smoothed out the air bubbles with a smoothing tool. At this point you can leave the paper, OR put another layer of mod podge on top of the paper to protect it from moisture or wear. I used a matte mod podge because I didn’t want the paper to have a shiny surface.

Layer the Spring Trays

Once the mod podge was dry I put the smaller tray on top of the larger one. You can do this or put them side by side on a table if you want a larger centerpiece.

Add Spring Items to Spring Stacked Trays

Fresh Flowers

I love fresh flowers. I added ranunculus in a white pot as the focal point of the stacked trays.

Candles

Candles bring a coziness and warmth to a centerpiece. Add as many as you want. Especially if you are using the centerpiece in the dining room.

Eggs

If you want to celebrate spring and easter, eggs are a great choice to add color and texture to the stacked tray centerpiece. I used painted eggs as well as moss eggs to bring a spring vibe to the centerpiece.

Add a Figurine

A marble bunny also brings spring to the centerpiece. Other ideas would be chicks, a saying or another object like a small house or lemon.

Enjoy the Spring Footed Stacking Tray Centerpiece

No matter which area of your home you use this centerpiece in, you and your guests will enjoy this spring DIY centerpiece.
