But if minimalist swaps are more your style, a subtle glow is all you need to reset the seasonal mood. Dollar Tree’s latest crop of tiny lanterns, solar lights, and twinkle-light sets makes a strong case for decorating in little pools of light instead—on the porch, along a mantel, tucked into a centerpiece, or scattered across a patio after sunset.

And yes, as you’ve probably come to expect at Dollar Tree, all of these are $1.50 or less. That leaves plenty of room in the budget for cider, pie, and everything else calling your name in autumn.
