Two trends that never seem to go out of style are crafting with the Dollar Tree foam dice, and decorating with Bumblebees. So let’s combine the two for a budget friendly Summer decor DIY and make an easy and affordable (and adorable) Foam Dice Bumblebee to sit on your bookshelf or Tiered Tray!
I wasn’t able to find the Dollar Tree foam dice for the longest time, but now that I did, I’ve got about 20 of them! And let me tell ya, they make for great crafting supplies.
For Christmas we made an adorable Foam Dice Snowman in my VIP Crafting Group, The CRafterparty, and now this Foam Dice Bumblebee. Question is…what foam dice thing can we make next?!
This Dollar Tree Foam Dice Bumblebee is small enough to fit on a Tiered Tray, but large enough to stand alone on a bookshelf. She brings the most perfect whimsy touch to any of your Summer and Sunflower decor!
For as obsessed as I am with Sunflowers, I only just started getting into the crafting and decorating with bees. And now that I’ve started, I can’t stop!

I chose to make this little Bumblebee girl with a fun a whimsy feel.
With her broken and aged black stripes, pretty little lashes, and pink rosy cheeks.
I gave her some Pipe Cleaner antlers, and jazzed her up with a lace and bakers twine bow in her “hair”.
Would you ever believe her wings are just cardboard and diamond dust?!
She looks so super adorable on my tiered tray with the rest of my Sunflower and Bee decor, doesn’t she? I keep calling her a girl…she’s a girl right!?
