ADD FLAIR WITH DOLLAR-STORE BASICS

Garland from the dollar store looks no different on your mantel or banister than the kind you buy at big-box stores, but it costs much less! "You can also find paint, glitter, sequins and glass jars there," says Zakiyya Rosebelle of HappyRosyDay.​com. Use these items for this simple holiday craft project: Pluck acorns, twigs and leaves from your yard and paint them silver, gold, green or red, then sprinkle with glitter. They're perfect to hang on your garland, tree or mantel.
