This Hello Fall Leaf Sign combines two simple Dollar Tree wood blanks with one of my favorite crafting techniques: heat-press napkin decoupage.
I covered a square wood sign with a pretty fall leaf napkin, then painted a raised "Hello Fall" leaf cutout olive green with golden yellow lettering.
A jute rope border adds some texture around the outside, and a simple twine bow finishes off the leaf.
The green and yellow color combination is a nice change if you want fall decor that isn't completely covered in orange pumpkins.

Finally, we're finishing things off with a cute Halloween ghost.
For this Dollar Store Ghost Door Hanger, I painted a jumbo wooden ghost white and added small gray accents around the edges for a little dimension.
Then I painted three small wooden gift tags with orange, yellow, and white ombre finishes and added B-O-O in black vinyl.
The tags are strung between the ghost's hands with burlap strands and embellished with black and white check ribbon. A little greenery and an orange check bow finish off the top.
It's festive and Halloween-y without being the least bit scary—exactly how I like my ghost crafts.

Who knew a wooden ghost and witch hat could make such a cute fall gnome?
For this Dollar Store Fall Gnome Sign, I painted a Dollar Tree ghost white to create the gnome's beard and decoupaged a wooden witch hat with a pretty pumpkin and sunflower napkin.
A tiny wood bead becomes the nose, and the whole gnome gets attached to an orange-painted and distressed wood slat sign. Finish it with a simple burlap bow, and you've got an adorable little fall decoration.
I especially love this one because you can customize the hat with whatever you've got—napkins, scrapbook paper, fabric, or just paint would all work.

Halloween wood cutouts becoming Christmas ornaments? Obviously.
After making the fall gnome sign, I had leftover ghosts and witch hats, so I turned them into Santa Gnome Christmas Ornaments.
Paint the ghosts white and the witch hats Christmas red, then glue the hats directly over the ghost faces. Suddenly, the ghost becomes a fluffy Santa beard and the witch hat becomes a Santa hat.
Add a tiny wood bead nose, red and white check ribbon, a white pom pom, and baker's twine for hanging.
They're ridiculously easy and such a fun way to use up leftover Halloween craft supplies instead of storing them for another year.

I've decorated a lot of these raised Dollar Tree pumpkin cutouts, but this stenciled wood pumpkin craft uses those dimensional sections a little differently.
I painted the entire pumpkin a dark olive green, then cut an intricate fall leaf stencil from stencil vinyl with my Cricut.
Instead of stenciling the entire surface, I used creamy white paint only on the raised pumpkin sections, leaving the recessed divider lines green.
Add a green and white check bow to the stem, and you've got an easy fall pumpkin that feels a little more modern than your traditional orange decor.
And because you can cut pretty much any stencil design you want, this technique is super easy to customize.

This might be one of the cutest uses I've found for a Dollar Tree plastic chopping mat.
For this Halloween Ghost Window Mini Centerpiece, I removed the fabric from a stretched canvas and used the wooden frame to create a faux window. Stained popsicle sticks create the window panes, while a translucent chopping mat becomes the "glass."
Then there's a black wooden ghost peeking through from behind.
Attach the window to a Dollar Tree mini wood crate, fill the crate with fall florals, and place a battery-operated candle behind the window.
Turn it on at night and the little ghost window actually glows!

This is one of those projects where you really need to trust the process.
The Jack-O-Lantern Halloween Candy Door Sign starts with a jumbo Dollar Tree jack-o-lantern cutout and five giant paint stir sticks.
I painted the pumpkin with layered orange and brown shades, added a darker wood piece behind the face so the eyes and mouth really pop, and assembled the paint sticks underneath to create a large sign.
Then I added white vinyl that says:
Trick or Treat!
Help Yourself to Something Sweet
Hang it on your front door and put a bowl of Halloween candy underneath.
Perfect for my fellow introverts who want to participate in trick-or-treating without opening the front door 97 times.

This Dollar Store Fall Mug Cutout Wreath started with one of those cute wooden pumpkin spice latte mug cutouts.
I covered the mug portion with plaid scrapbook paper using the heat-press Mod Podge method, then painted the raised whipped cream with creamy white paint.
The best part? I pounced a little tan paint over the whipped cream to make it look like it had been sprinkled with cinnamon.
The finished mug gets attached to a burlap-wrapped wire wreath with burgundy eucalyptus, greenery, and tiny white pumpkins.
I'll admit this one took a little trial and error—and if I made it again, I'd probably use a larger wreath form—but I absolutely love the decorated mug itself.

Yes, those Dollar Tree witch hat cutouts can be used for something besides Halloween.
For this Wicked-inspired reverse canvas sign, I painted two wooden witch hats pink and green and embellished them with coordinating ribbon and tiny bows.
The background is made from a Dollar Tree stretched canvas that I turned into a reverse canvas. I added 15mm wood half balls around the frame for a preppy bobbin-edge detail, painted the frame pink, and used charcoal gray for the canvas.
Finish it with pink, green, and white vinyl that says "Pink Goes Good With Green."
If you're a Wicked fan, you already know.
