Last year, Allison from House of Hepworths fell head-over-heels for some fabulous nutcrackers in the West Elm catalog. But at almost $30 each (or $60 for a larger model), she couldn’t justify buying them. Not when she knew she could make them! You won’t believe the “before” picture of these guys; they were pretty hideous when she found them at Dollar Tree. A few modifications later, their mod makeover made a world of difference!

Project estimate:
- Nutcracker, $1 and up
- Spray paint, on hand or $1 and up
Total: $1 and up

Nice job! I bought a couple of these to make at the dollar store today. An easy and cute project.
