DIY Dollar Tree Children's Bookholder
Once you have gathered all of the necessary materials, assembling this DIY should be extremely simple and can be done in just a few steps. First, start out by using your zip ties to connect your three napkin holders. Connect them on their short sides to create one long shelf. Next, cut off the long pieces of the zip ties with scissors. The final step is to attach the shelf to your child's bedroom wall using the adhesive wire hooks. Keep in mind that this step is optional but will make the shelf more stable so it doesn't fall over from the weight of the books.
Customizing the DIY book holder
Creating a DIY book holder from Dollar Tree items is just the beginning. TikToker @diymomhacks shared her method of placing the book holder on the ground for easy access to books. However, you can explore other placement options such as on a nightstand, dresser, in a closet, or even attached to a bedroom wall using adhesive hooks. Just ensure the hooks are sturdy enough to hold the weight of the books. If you need more storage, consider using additional napkin holders to expand the book holder's capacity.
Once assembled, you can further personalize the book holder to match your child's room decor. A simple coat of spray paint can transform the look and help conceal the zip ties. Consider using Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch spray paint, available at Home Depot, which offers a variety of colors at an affordable price. Choose your child's favorite hue or explore color options to enhance the room's aesthetic.
Customizing the DIY book holder not only adds a personal touch but also ensures it blends seamlessly with the room's design, making reading time even more enjoyable for your child.
If you're looking for a fun and budget-friendly DIY project to do with your little ones, consider sprucing up some metal napkin holders. Once the piece is dry, get creative by using hot glue to attach colorful items like Craft Pom-Poms or Craft Feathers that come in various fun colors. Dollar Tree is a great place to find affordable crafting supplies like these. If hot glue isn't your thing, you can also opt to decorate the metal wiring with Decorative Adhesive Paper Craft Tape in different patterns for a unique touch.
