In the days before Pinterest, people put some branches in a vase or hung up a wreath for Thanksgiving decor and called it good. But now we want more. And we don’t want to spend a lot for it. If you’re lacking in DIY skills like me, you also need it to be easy. Thank goodness for the Dollar Tree and some very clever bloggers. Here are 12 Dollar Tree Thanksgiving decor ideas that will make your home Pinterest-worthy on a budget.
- A little copper spray paint completely transforms these plastic pumpkins into an elegant centerpiece.
Up to Date Interiors
- This Fall Candle Centerpiece looks easy enough for even the craft-impaired like me.
That’s What Che Said
- I love how the wine glasses in this centerpiece serve double-duty.
- These pretty mason jar vases are perfect with the sunflowers, but you could fill them with any kind of fall foliage.
Crafting in the Rain
- This is actually a picture from a Pottery Barn catalog, but imagine how easy it would be to replicate these with some plastic pears and a can of gold glitter spray paint.
- Got candy corn that nobody wants to eat? Use it to make a pretty fall bouquet.
Craft Elf
- It’s hard to believe this hurricane centerpiece was made entirely with Dollar Tree supplies.
How to Nest for Less
- Here’s a clever way to make a fall-themed pillow cover.
Sparkles of Sunshine
- This fall leaf garland is as easy as it is welcoming.
Making Home Base
- Those same leaves take an elegant turn when they’re gussied up with some metallic paint.
The Crazy Craft Lady
- This candle centerpiece takes about two minutes to put together, but it looks like it’s straight out of a magazine.
Passionate Penny Pincher
- What’s seasonal decor without a wreath? I love this version from House of Hepworths.

I also used the $1 leaves, cut out a round circle of cardboard box, hot glued the leaves in circular pattern, overlapping, and made a couple of candle holder and/or mug cozy. Saw that these were at Pier1 for lots more $$$.
Great Ideas THANK you do much
They are beautiful
Blessing Happy Holidays! thank you so much
Like the candy corn filler & popcorn seeds. My favorite though is spraying the plastic pots in copper. Paint is the least expensive option to transform almost anything!
Thx for sharing
I love the copper too!
I love how I can see what others do and mix parts of several ideas and come up with more. Thanks for sharing.
I really like the wreath idea and want to try to make it out of the metallic leaves. Thank you for the affordable decorating ideas!
I bet that would be really pretty!
