Today it is time for another Dollar Store Christmas Decorations segment. I have been decorating with dollar store items for the last few years and love the challenge of making nice decor items and saving lots of money. I am happy to say that this post is sponsored by Dollar Tree.
I recently went to my neighborhood store to check out their supplies.
I ended up getting these items.
I wanted to make a nice inexpensive Christmas tablescape using the items.
Dollar Store Candles
First I took these glass vases and decorated them with glitter pens. I just drew swirls around the glass. It instantly updated these!
Then, I wanted to make a cute centerpiece using the foil trees. So I started by printing off the words Merry Christmas on cardstock.
I cut each letter out, making a little tag for each letter then punching a hole.
I then attached the letter bunting tags to create a banner on the string of bells.
These became this.
Dollar Store Holiday Bunting
I used the gold pipe cleaners and wrapped them around the small clear holders twice around and tied together.
I then added my dollar store chargers for place settings and placed the dollar store ornaments on the napkins.
And those dollar store vases that I painted on? I added water to the vase and floated little candles on top.
Thanks for stopping by today!! Please let me know, do you shop at the dollar store for Christmas decor?
