how to makeover dollar general decor using an art print

I’ve been on a Dollar General ROLL lately, and I’m here for it!!! This $5 arched sign had some water stains, so I was able to snag it for just $2… you know I already had plans to cover it anyway!

here’s what you’ll need…

*tap on the bolded items to shop my affiliate links!*

  • dollar general $2 arched sign
  • re-fabbed hot glue gun/hot glue
  • the best scissors!
  • art print (I found in my crafting stash from a few years ago!)
  • re-fabbed pen (currently sold out)

Like I mentioned above, this sign had some water spots, but she DEFINITELY still had lots of potential!

I was digging through my craft stash and came across this print. I knew immediately that it was the perfect match! I so wish I could tell you where I got it, but I can’t remember.

First, I traced the arched sign onto the art print.

And cut it out using my FAVE scissors!

I’m sure there was a better way to do this, but I started trimming down the sides until they fit just right inside the sign!

I dabbed a bit of hot glue using the best hot glue gun to adhere it to my sign.

THAT IS ALL, folks!!!

I had to pair it with some cute little pumpkins I snagged at HomeGoods!

I LOVE the color scheme in this print!

Like I always say, never discount a piece just because it’s not your style! Can you believe I only have maybe $5 in this project?!? I would LOVE to know if this gave you some inspiration!

BE SURE TO PIN FOR LATER!

    Yes I am inspired.! I never look at a picture like you do, and then to repurpose it, making it your own with another picture. I love the arched frame. So now im going to look better next time I see one. The same things goes with your beautiful flower canvas from Goodwill. Very impressed. Turned out amazing.. Thanks Brooke????

    I absolutely love this make over. The print you chose is so pretty. I bet the Mod Podge pumpkin you just made in the MVP class would look nice with this as well. I saw some beautiful floral printed canvas at JoAnn’s today. I need to keep an eye out for something like the arch frame that I could put it in. Thanks for always reminding us that there are many ways to make things beautiful!

    I’m going to have to pay better attention to the DG frames. I love that arch and the watercolor print is beautifully framed by it.
