I always enjoy a good decor challenge on a budget, so when my friend Terrie, from Decorate and more with Tip invited me to her DIY Dollar Tree Challenge, I knew I would love it!!
DIY Dollar Tree Challenge:
Rules: Purchase an 18 inch tree from The Dollar Tree and decorate it as budget friendly as possible!! Challenger accepted ✅
I started off with this white Christmas tree from The Dollar Tree. I decided to use some of my leftover painter’s drop cloth canvas to make a bow topper and ribbon for the tree. All you do is cut a small cut at the top of the canvas then make a second cut, depending on your width you want of your “ribbon”. I decided my bow ribbon and ribbon cascading down the tree would be 2 inches in width and around 20 inches long. I like my ribbon to sort of bunch into the branches. A drop cloth is only $3 for a small one.
Next I decided to use my wood star garland from one of my fav shops, 302 Wood Works .
Lastly, I went to Hobby Lobby and purchased these little pink mini ornaments for $1.99 at 50% off!
Along with these mini ornament hooks for .99 cents at 50% off. For the tree skirt, I used a piece of canvas drop cloth! I only spent $3 and some change on the supplies for decorating the tree. My total cost for decorating my tree was $4.32!!
I wanted to style the tree in our girls bathroom upstairs, which is decorated in a boho theme. I wanted the tree to reflect that, with a pop of pale pink for color and a fun flair! What do y’all think?

Shae your tree looks amazing in your girl’s bathroom. I think you mastered the boho look for the room. How beautiful your Dollar Tree looks. It really looks nothing like the tree that comes from Dollar Tree. Nicely done! Thanks for joining us on the DIY challenge this month. Your inspiration will be pinned and copied I am sure! Happy Holiday!
