Dollar Tree Fall Decor Ideas – Some of the Best I’ve Found Online
Reverse Canvas Pumpkins made by the Crazy Craft Lady
The canvas craft ideas are adorable and she makes it look super easy to put together. The possibilities with this are endless as I’m now thinking about how to do the same idea with a Christmas tree, snowman, hearts, flags…. on and on!
Cute Little Ghosts made by White Oak Shop
I have little kids so I can’t do anything overly spooky.
These little ghosts are adorable and not scary at all. Looks super simply to make as well.
Dollar Store Wire Pumpkin – Chunky knit style made by Home Talk
Apparently, these wire pumpkins sell out super fast at the Dollar Store so if you see them grab them.
You can DIY the pumpkin wire wreath and customize it to your liking.
You can find them as well on Amazon but they’re more expensive so if you can find them at a Dollar Store they’ll be more affordable prices.
DIY Real Pumpkin candles made by Home Edit
The creator of these real pumpkin DIY candles scented them with cinnamon and I can just smell them now! You can pick up with wax supplies at Dollar and Tree and get to crafting. I’m starting to thing of all the other possible containers I could make into a candle.
Gold Leaf Pumpkins made by My 100 Year-Old Home
This creator didn’t mention the Dollar store, in fact, she says she already owned her pumpkins but you could always pick up your super cheap pumpkins and added Golf Leaf to them. I think these look so high end and she says she found the golf leaf sheets online for a deal! Score!
Dollar Tree DIY garland from Ruff and Renew
Such a cute DIY garland made with Dollar Tree supplies. I like how she painted the leaves and orange pumpkin to look more muted and soft. It is an inexpensive project and a great way to add some fall decor to your house.
This creator complimented the garland with a matching wreath for her door with all the same supplies.
Mason Jars Salt & Pepper Shakers made by Debbie Doos
Looks like you could make these easily and you could do a set for each season. I’m thinking about how to do some snowman shakers for Christmas next!
Pumpkin Decor from a Pizza Pan made by The Makers Map
You would never know this adorable pumpkin wreath came from a pizza pan. I’ve decided to look at pizza pans completely differently from now on now that I’ve got this inspiration. I especially love the bow at the top with the shredded ribbon.
This is one of many fall sign options that would look nice on a front porch or front door.
Transform Easter Eggs into Acorns from A Pretty Happy Home
When Easter hit stock up on those large plastic Dollar Tree Easter eggs. Fall you will thank yourself when you can make these adorable acorns!
Natural Elements
Think using pinecones, leaves, and branches to make a beautiful fall display. Natural elements like pumpkins, gourds, and squash can add a pop of color and texture to your decor.
I started making real flower pumpkin arrangements each year for Thanksgiving years ago and I love them. They bring so much color to the table.
Dollar Tree is has a lot of natural elements for your fall decor. They have a wide range of seasonal items like pinecones, leaves, and branches that you could add to your fresh flower pumpkin arrangements.
Fall Color Schemes and Themes
Fall decor has endless possibilities with so many color schemes and themes to choose from. Warm and cozy colors like orange, yellow, and red are classic choices for fall. If you prefer a cooler palette, muted colors like green, blue, and purple can make for a calm and sophisticated look.
I don’t gravitate to the usual oranges and yellows that you see in a lot of fall decor. I love the idea of adding a pop of color that you might not expect like purple, copper, or mint green.
For a modern look try a monochromatic color scheme with different shades of one color. This will give your fall decor a contemporary feel and still be seasonal. Dollar Tree has a wide range of fall decor in various colors and themes so you can find pieces that match your style and decor.
Tips for Shopping at Dollar Tree
- Shop multiple stores to see what’s different in inventory and styles.
- Check the Halloween section for super cute pumpkins with a spooky or glittery flair.
- Take your time and move things around to make sure you’re not missing anything.
- Shop early and look online first to know what you’re looking for before you go.
Storage for Seasonal Decor
As fall comes to an end it’s time to pack up your seasonal decor and store it away until next year. Finding the right storage solutions is key to keeping your decor organized and in tact.
I always put my stuff in storage bins and containers. Choose bins with lids to keep your decor dust-free and protected.
Another option is to use a storage ottoman or bench. These provide extra storage and are functional and stylish pieces for your home. They can hide your fall decor out of sight but still be easily accessible.
I like to label my bins with the season and EXACTLY what’s inside my bin so I’m not scrambling for things later.
