11 Best New Five Below Fall Craft and DIY Finds Under $5

Cooler weather has a way of pulling people back indoors and, for a certain type of person, straight toward a craft table. Five Below is one of the best places to stock up on supplies. Its fall craft lineup covers just about every medium—clay, markers, beads, tape, and DIY kits—and every single item rings in at five dollars or less. This is a solid haul whether the plan is a rainy afternoon project, a gift for a crafty kid, or just restocking supplies that ran out over summer. These are the 11 best new Five Below craft finds worth grabbing right now.

If you’re looking for a perfect afterschool activity, consider this 42-pack of air-dry clay in a rainbow of bright colors. It’s open-ended enough to spark the imagination, substantial enough to make a range of artworks, and costs just $5 at Five Below.

Colored pencils are another craft basic that you should always have on hand, and there’s no better brand than Crayola. This 24-count comes in vivid colors and come pre-sharpened, meaning they’re ready to go straight out of the box. You’ll spend just $5.

Small-scale knitting kits are a nice entry point for anyone curious about the craft without committing to a full scarf or blanket project. The fall theming (think apple cider donuts, bat kitties, pumpkin spice lattes, and more) makes these especially well timed. Grab one here for $4.

Unlike air dry clay, this polymer clay set needs a low oven bake to set, which makes it a better fit for more durable projects like jewelry or small figurines. Forty-eight pieces cover a wide color range for just $5.

Markers can be basic and boring, but not when they come with a metallic sheen. These dual-sided, multi-sized markers have a shimmer and shine that regular markers can’t match, and this 12-count set works well on dark paper, cardstock, or even fabric for anyone branching into mixed media. Again, $5.

Personalized stamps turn plain notebooks, cards, or gift tags into something that looks a little more custom without any actual design skill required. Kids will love writing their names or spelling their favorite words, with infinite opportunity to get creative. $5.

Diamond art has become a genuine craft trend, and Five Below always has it stocked. This DIY kit gives beginners a low-cost way to try it out before investing in a bigger set. Bejewel all of your favorite items for just $5.

This one’s an easy gift project, letting a kid or adult build a custom photo holder rather than buying a generic frame off a shelf. Once finished, they’re perfect for Polaroids. Find them at Five Below for just $5, and get crafting.

Any number of projects could call for a paper trimmer, and this one comes conveniently sized and safely rendered. Whether you’re scrapbooking, making cards, or creating something from your imagination, it keeps lines straight without the wobble of a freehand cut. Shop it at Five Below for just $5.

Beading projects, from bracelets to keychains, get an upgrade with this metallic finish set instead of the usual matte plastic beads. It’s a solid pick for younger crafters especially. Grab it for $5.

Washi tape shows up in everything from journaling to gift wrapping to scrapbook pages, and a 30-count set covers a wide enough range of patterns to avoid running out mid-project. It’s available at Five Below for $5, and comes in a range of patterns, colors, and sizes.
