The possibilities are endless for the Dollar Tree Calendar prints, but have you used the mini’s on the back? This Mini Dollar Tree Calendar frame is made with the Farm Fresh Pumpkins print, but you could make this same craft for any season or holiday, and its the perfect decor for your tiered tray!
Day 3 of the “Back of the Calendar crafts” series! Today we’re making a mini tiered tray “frame”! Super simple
super easysuper quick super cute!! And it looks just darling on my Fall Tiered Tray.
If you aren’t aware, this week were doing a series of crafts with the Dollar Tree 2022 Calendar prints. But it’s not what you think. We’re not using the large prints for each month. All of the crafts we’re doing can be made with the BACK of the calendar ‘minis’! Hence the name “Back of the Calendar crafts series LOL!
If you missed the other ones, make sure to go back and check those out (*blog posts coming soon*), as well as all of the other Dollar Tree projects we’ve been doing over here at Manda Panda Projects.
The best part of this project is that it totally doesn’t have to be made with the Farm Fresh Pumpkins print for Halloween or Fall. You could take this exact same concept and make a mini frame for your tiered tray for any of the other seasons or holidays, just like I did for the Farm Fresh Christmas Trees print for my Christmas Tiered Tray!
How stinkin’ cute does it look even just sitting on my bookcase next to the adorbs Wood Bead Pumpkin?!

How to Make a Mini Calendar Print Frame for a Tiered Tray
I made this adorable mini Dollar Tree Calendar frame on video, so you can WATCH the step by step tutorial on HERE.
Start this cutie off by staining some Jenga blocks with Antique wax, and then gluing them together to make a mini frame.
Cut a piece of cardboard to use as the backing, and glue a piece of burlap on top, and then the mini farm fresh pumpkins calendar print on top of that.
Add some orange painted half wood beads to each corner for decoration, and a mini twine bow to the top. If you want to get super cute, make a teeny tiny little raffia bow to the stem of each pumpkin.
How stinkin’ cute did this Dollar Tree Calendar Print Frame turn out! SO happy we made it through day 3 of our “Back of the Calendar Crafts” series, make sure to stay tuned for day 4!
