We Gave a Designer $25 for Holiday Decor at Dollar Tree – Here’s What They Bought

“These coolers are perfect for serving up your favorite holiday drinks,” Tatsioni says. “The winter woodland design adds a cozy touch to your table, making every sip feel special.”

These stemless wineglasses help dress up your table and are perfect for serving wine or other nonalcoholic beverages. According to Tatsioni, “They’re chic and functional, plus, they tie in beautifully with the woodland theme.”

“These adorable ice skate ornaments are just too cute! They add a playful vibe to your decor and can be hung on the tree or used in centerpieces for that extra festive flair,” Tatsioni says. Personally, I love the assorted plaid patterns and holiday pine and berry accents on these ornaments — they look so cozy.

Tatsioni’s next pick is these holiday trays, which are great for displaying treats and snacks. You can even gift them to friends and family — once they’re finished enjoying the treats, they’ll have a new tray to use for the holiday season.

“This sleigh ornament is such a fun addition! It can be used on your tree or as part of a centerpiece, bringing a whimsical charm to your decor,” Tatsioni says. It’s available in two different styles: red and white, both of which would look lovely in any home. I’m also a big fan of using ornaments to adorn wrapped gifts as well. They’re such a fun and cost-effective add-on!

Tatsioni’s next pick is perfect for anyone looking to add light to their decor — “it provides a warm glow that creates a cozy ambience in any room perfect for those chilly winter nights.” There are three different color options, and you can find either a single pillar candle or a trio of smaller pillar candles inside. Because the lanterns are LED, you can place them anywhere in your home.

No holiday table setting would be complete without a side plate to serve appetizers, desserts, and other dishes. The intricate details of the trees make these ceramic plates look so elegant. “Not only are these plates functional, but they also add beauty to your holiday dining experience with their lovely woodland design,” Tatsioni adds.

If you’re searching for another cooler glass option to serve your holiday drinks in, this one’s for you. They’re perfect for holiday parties and will definitely impress your guests with their glittery design. The snowflake prints on the outside of the glass feel especially festive and will help dress up your table.

If you want to bring the feeling of a white, winter wonderland into your home, look no further! These ornaments come in a pack of two assorted designs. I love decorating with white accents wherever possible, because they blend in so easily with my other holiday decor.

Gift boxes are my ultimate time-saving hack when wrapping gifts — especially when they already have ribbon and bows on them. Available in red, gold, rose gold, and silver, these embossed foil gift boxes come in two sizes and are great to have on hand for any last-minute gift giving.

These bowls add a nice pop of color to your setup, and are super versatile. Matching the other winter woodland plates and cups, they’re the perfect complement to any holiday place setting. I love that the minimalist tree design wraps around the entire bowl.

If you’re in need of cost-friendly candles for entertaining, Dollar Tree has you covered! These pillar candles are great to use when hosting for the holidays. With their apple cinnamon scent, “these candles will make your home smell amazing and create a cozy atmosphere,” Tatsioni says.

These cute winter icons will bring a touch of elegance and luxury to your holiday decor, especially when added to your tree, wreaths and garlands. Each pack comes with a matching set of two ornaments.

“Mini trees are so fun! They’re perfect for tabletops or entryways, bringing that festive spirit without the hassle of real trees,” Tatsioni says. I’ve always found that mini trees are an easy way to decorate every room in my home. You can customize the ornaments and lights to match any holiday decor theme.

These baskets can be used for organizing small items or as decorative pieces like ornaments or treats, and add texture among all the red, white, and green. They come in three different color designs, so you can choose which one will look the best in your room. The best part is that you can reuse them for everyday storage after you pack away all of your holiday decor.

This set of snowflake ornaments will look stunning on your tree or around the house, enhancing that winter wonderland vibe. Each package comes with four snowflake ornaments with two different designs.

“You can’t go wrong with classic stockings! They add a traditional touch to your holiday decor and can be hung by the fireplace or on walls for an inviting look,” Tatsioni says. You can also hang stockings in your kids’ rooms to add some festive flair to their rooms. When I’m traveling for the holidays, I like to use stockings to “wrap” small hostess gifts like a bottle of wine.
