I love the dollar store, but sometimes their stuff needs to a little bit of help to reach it’s full potential. Never has this been truer than with the Dollar Store Pumpkin. It’s sort of a sorry looking thing, but oh the things you can do with this humble little orange orb. Check out these 17 Amazing Dollar Store Pumpkin Crafts.

17 Amazing Dollar Store Pumpkin Crafts

Gold Confetti Pumpkins from Making Home Base

I love some good copper craft paint. These super chic pumpkins would make a great centerpiece from early fall through Halloween and even Thanksgiving.

Chalkboard Paint Pumpkins from the Blissful Bee

I’m a fan of chalkboard on pretty much anything. It’s great that you can use chalk to write on these, but I really just love that matte black finish on these upcycled dollar store pumpkins.

Duck Tape Decorated Pumpkin from Pitter and Glink

I own this gold duct tape. I have never succeeded in making it look as cool as these pumpkins look. Well played.

Glitter Pumpkins from Do It Your Freaking Self

Glitter on pumpkins? Why not?? These formerly boring dollar store pumpkins are completely blinged out.

Studded Pumpkins from Lucy Designs

These pumpkins are a little shabby chic farmhouse with a touch of rocker glam. Not a combination you see often. I like it though.

Chalkboard Pumpkin Topiary from The Kim Six Fix

More chalkboard, but this time assembled into an adorable dollar store Pumpkin topiary!

Simple Confetti Pumpkin from Madigan Made

I love the colorful splash on these confetti pumpkins. So fun!

Pumpkin Serving Tray from Val Event Gal

There’s nothing I like more than a functional DIY. Need a spot to display your Keto Halloween cookies? How about a Pumpkin serving tray? This is one that will carry you through Thanksgiving, too!
