Budget Friendly Thanksgiving Decor – DIYs

I love decorating for Thanksgiving with trends that can easily move with me through Christmas. That is where the Thankful Corner comes in. By mixing reindeers with silver and white-light decor, this corner can easily transition from Fall to Winter. And as anyone with limited free time can tell you – the less work one has to do around the holidays, the better!

Plus – it’s totally budget friendly!

This entire corner is either thrifted or a DIY project. Let’s just get right down to it, shall we?

Budget Friendly Thanksgiving Decor – with DIYs

Thankful Corner - all thrifted or DIY projects with tutorial. Decorations that move from Thanksgiving to Christmas

 

Lets break it down, budget wise.

>>FROM TOP TO BOTTOM<<

  • Gold Spray Painted Reindeer Antlers, $6
  • Picture frame with Black paper covering up the original (not seasonal) artwork, with hand-drawn white chalkboard marker image, $1
  • Old white frame, had on hand. Fabric reindeer trophy head – free pattern by Charming Doodle HERE. Sewn with Michael Miller Gold Dot fabric, and brown faux suede – both of which I had on hand. $0.
  • ‘THANKS’ backlit sign – DIY, $32
  • White chair, thrifted and spray painted white. Had on hand.
  • Blanket, had on hand.
  • Diagonal Striped Washi Tape Pillow – DIY, $7
  • Leaf Pillow – DIY Below, $5
  • French grain sack hanging wall basket – DIY coming soon, $10

TOTAL COST = $61

Now I know you probably don’t have the same items that I did on hand. But I am a true believer in ‘making it work’. And all of the stuff I already had, I had to search through my house to find! My guess is – if you did the same, you would be amazed at what you can come up with. I find corner tables that I look right past every single day, so many times, that are suddenly perfect for a photo shoot. Or old fabric stuffed at the bottom of a plastic bin, that I forgot I had. You’ll be amazed at what you find when you simply start looking!

Happy Sewing!
