Colorful doormats

Emma Villaneda, the influencer behind The Crafted Studio Co., recommends brightening your doorstep with a colorful new doormat for spring.

"In the Dollar Tree Plus section, they have these cute doormats," she says in a TikTok video, sifting through a variety of styles. Keep in mind this means they'll be closer to $5 than $1.25.

Villaneda then shares a fun hack using two black doormats and one colorful mat: "What you're gonna do is lay the black thin mats out side by side and you can put your outdoor mat right on top of the wording, and you get that layered look on a budget."

Metal flower decorations

Kathryn Snearly, the YouTube influencer behind Do It On a Dime, suggests sprucing up your space with these fun metal flowers from Dollar Tree.

"You can add some spray paint to this for an incredible installation—and we can do this for about 20 bucks," Snearly told her 2.3 million subscribers in a recent post. "I know this looks like a lot, but just trust the process," she says while loading up her cart with flowers of all sizes.

Using Space Tape, a removable double-sided tape that she also purchased from Dollar Tree, the DIY star demonstrates how she arranged the flowers in a "gentle, flowing, very organic way" on her wall.

"This would look great above a vanity like I did but you could also do it in a nursery or a kid's room… The quality is so awesome. I love how this turned out," she says.
