Shopping For Fall Home Decor At Dollar Tree
Dollar Tree, the beloved go-to for budget-friendly finds, is a hidden gem for creating stunning fall decor on a dime, LITERALLY! I remember when everything at Dollar Tree was $1 or less. A few years ago they increased price to $1.25 (inflation!) and most recently, some stores are now carrying merchandise that is over $1.25. I’ve seen $5 items at my neighborhood Dollar Tree, however, still really a good bargain.
If you’ve never shopped at the Dollar Tree, please read on as to why you should consider shopping at your local store for inexpensive fall decorating ideas. Check out their fall decor here.

My $23 Dollar Store Fall Decor Flower Arrangement Centerpiece
This fall I want something pretty and not the typical fall colors we see everywhere. For the arrangement above, I shopped at Dollar Tree and Pop Shelf. Pop Shelf has lots of last season home decor for 50% off right now. I purchased the tall pink glass vase for $6 on clearance (see my quick video below). This was the most expensive part of my flower arrangement, but I wanted something a little shi shi foo foo or even dramatic.
Since this vase is hella tall, I purchased 1 bag of scented pinecone filler. It smells so good! I would get two of these if you want the same look, but I just improvised mixing the pinecones filler with wine corks. This bag of filler is $3 regular price. My wine corks are in abundantly free! I stash them to use for future crafts or fillers. The fillers hide the stems. So I’ll be adding enough to fill halfway at first and then more once I finish adding all the florals to my vase.
This year, I’m in the mood for soft greenery such as faux silk lambs ear. Also, for a pop of darker green, I’m mixing with faux silk eucalyptis. All floral stems are $1.25 at Dollar Tree. I purchased 2 faux lambs ear and 2 eucalyptis which totals $5.
My favorite part is adding the flowers and the spray. I purchased to white chrysanthemums and two pink hop bush from Dollar Tree, at $1.25 each, so totaling $5.
Finally, I’m adding two pumpkin picks and a faux gold willow branch spray on top. Totaling $3.75. My floral arrangement is 25 inches tall, chic and beautiful for $23!
Update: I found the maple leaves at another Dollar Tree, so $2.50 more LOL 😀 Added those after posting this, so it’s not in the video. I swear every Dollar Tree is full of treasures. I didn’t see the maple leaves at my neighborhood Dollar Tree.
Fall decor is already in stores now friends! (Halloween too LOL). To get the best selection go shopping now and again right before Christmas season to get the clearance prices. See all steps in video below:
