Once you complete your project, you might be inspired to start finding other DIY decor ideas using Dollar Tree wood crafts for your home. These simple DIYs can easily make your wood pieces from Dollar Tree look high-end, so you don't compromise on style. For this particular accent wall project, you'll need to grab yourself three to four of the Crafters Square 2x16 in. Craft Wood Planks. You should also pick up three of the Crafter's Square Wood Plank Boards. You'll also need some wood glue or a hot glue gun, sandpaper if you want to smooth out edges, a foam paint brush or small roller, and your choice of paint or stain. To finish your project and hang it, get some hanging hardware, such as adhesive hooks or sticky strips.

You can start by measuring your wooden plank pieces against your boards. Cut the planks into three pieces, measuring against the two sides and the bottom of your craft boards. Glue them around the edges of your board to create a frame. These will provide you with one open edge that isn't framed. This part stays open, since it's where you'll be adding your faux greenery or floral later. Feel free to sand and smooth the edges of the framing after cutting and gluing it to the boards if you feel they are sharp. Next, apply your paint or stain to the wood, depending on your preference. You can go with a dark wood stain for an elegant, vintage vibe, or maybe paint the boards white for a more chic and farmhouse aesthetic.

Your next step is to hang them on the wall. You may want to use a level to keep each block going straight across. Ensure that you have the open edge side up when you hang them. Consider using these YSJNUS Adhesive Wall Hooks for easy hanging, but save your walls from damage with these hooks by using painter's tape. Once you're satisfied with their placement, you can add your greenery or flowers. You could use this Winlyn Mixed Floral Eucalyptus as a base, and add in a pop of color with other faux flowers. You can also incorporate and change out decor for the seasons or holidays by adding additional floral or pieces to your greenery.
