Dollar Tree Home Décor DIY – Coffee Syrup Dispensers




Hey Guys,

Today I’m sharing a very quick, and even better, extremely inexpensive DIY project. I had been on a hunt for some syrup despensers to serve my coffee flavors in and I ran across these glass vinegar containers at the Dollar Tree. Unfortuntely, the Vinegar label was not removable, so I had to paint over it with chalk paint, and write what I wanted.

Here are the supplies I used for this project:

Here are the dispensers I found at the dollar tree. Unfortunately, the Vinegar labels were not removable, thus this DIY.

Apply painter’s tape around the Vinegar label. Be sure to smooth around the edges to prevent leakage.

Allow to dry slightly with painters tape in place. After about 30minutes, remove the tape. This is dry to touch, but I would recommend allowing it to dry overnight before writing on it.

Here are a few pictures of the final outcome. Of course minus my bad handwriting. I chose chalk instead of the chalk markers so that I’m able to change this as needed.

      Hi Ana. Have you considered a coffee cart. The small bar carts are very popular now. Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting. I hope you have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. 🙂
