Give Your Dollar Store Decor a Remix

Decorating on a Dime: Make Dollar Store Pieces Chic

The days of dollar stores and affordable shops like Family Dollar only selling cheap trinkets and paper products are long gone. Now you can find reputable beauty products, decorate your house and even buy groceries…all for the low, low!

On a recent trip to Family Dollar, I stumbled across this cute, $22 drawer organizer. I knew it would be perfect to contain my accessories that are scattered all over the place. The fact that it has a cappuccino finish is definitely a plus because it creates a chic, modern feel. Although it came with six pull out bins, I decided to switch it up a little bit to create a one of a kind look that’s functional and unique to my style.

How to update an organizer

I ditched a few of the bins so I could neatly showcase some of my accessories. When your pieces are on display, you’re more likely to wear them versus having everything in bins. Not to mention, displaying accessories is a crafty way of adding to the décor of the room.

I also found a chevron lamp from Dollar General for just $12, which topped this look off perfectly. Now I’ve created a simple accessory corner using affordable finds!

Have you ever purchased home decor from the dollar store, Family Dollar or similar stores? What ways have you modified them to create a more unique look?

    I haven’t used the dollar stores much, but I keep seeing things on pinterest and now this post so I’m intriqued. I think I’ll be stopping by our local one next week to discover what I’ve been missing.
