Decorative Tree Topper
- Price: $5
Dollar Tree shopper Krystalbee shared photos of the decorative tree topper in a five-star review — and they’re absolutely fantastic! Consider this your sign to buy your favorite style before they’re sold out.
“These are such a steal! I didn’t pay attention to the description in store and bought a few of these for decorations. They are super full and great quality. I was shocked by how long the ribbon tails actually run. I didn’t realize they were a tree topper bow, so they run down very long!” wrote Krystalbee.
Faux Fur Stocking
- Price: $5
The faux fur stocking is another Dollar Tree Christmas item we added to this list thanks to a great customer photo from shopper Jenn26.
Available in red, green, gray and cream, these stockings are plush and big enough to fit most small stocking stuffers.

There are many ways to enjoy the Christmas coloring and activity book. Pair with inexpensive crayons or colored pencils (also sold at Dollar Tree) for stocking stuffers, break them out on snow days for creative fun or bring them along on holiday travel to keep young minds occupied for hours.
