The pack of Dollar Tree Pot Holders come in a pack of two, so I crafted with one of them and then gifted the other away.

First things first, make a 2-3 inch slit with an X-acto knife on the top back of the pot holder, and separate the back of the pot holder from the front. Then stuff it with as much polyfil as you can and then close up the slit with some hot glue.

Now, your pot holder is stuffed and we’re ready to decorate!

Next, hot glue the orange tulle trim all around the outer edge of the pot holder.

For the hanger I made a wood bead hanger with twine and black, white, and buffalo check wood beads.

Secure it to the back of the pot holder with hot glue, and then glue a couple strips of ribbon over the ends to reinforce it and make it look “pretty”.

Last, add a couple of mini black wood bats to the front, on top of the images of the bats for some 3D elements. I added two.

Here she is all said and done. This took me about 30 min to make and it came out oh so cute, don’t ya think?!

It fits perfectly on my doorknob for a cute little Halloween vibe.
