Dollar Tree Christmas Art. I know it’s hard to believe, don’t you just love these prints!
The red truck is my favorite. I would love to have a truck like that.
But this post isn’t about the truck, it’s about Dollar Tree Christmas Art.
$2 each…
I have been busier than one of Santa’s elves. I have so many fun projects to share with you over the next few weeks. All Christmas related!
Ok, which one is your favorite? They look awesome don’t they. I debated about taking the matting out. I tried it with and without and I actually liked it with the matting. Totally a personal preference and you could go either way. Dollar Tree Christmas art with or without matting!
Here’s what you need:
- 3 Frames
- 3 Christmas Gift bags
- I removed the glass from the frame and placed it on top of the bag. I knew the whole thing wouldn’t fit in the frame, so I used the glass to measure what I wanted visible.
- Cut bag to fit.
Simple as that and then I hung them in my guest room.
Now what do you think?? I love my new Dollar Store Christmas art. It’s the way to go when you’re doing seasonal decorating on a budget!

Cute Idea. I have done this before with other bags too like Halloween. I have even used the reusable bags for this. Another idea is get 5×7 frames or 8×10 with a big matt and frame beautiful greeting cards. Cards are 2 for 1.00 at Dollar tree.
Debbie says
Great idea with the greeting cards!!
Nancy @ Artsy Chicks Rule says
Oh my gosh, Debbie! Cutest idea ever!! xo
Debbie says
Thanks Nancy!
Catherine says
I love this idea. I wish my Dollar Tree sold bags like this. They had the frames, but their gift bags weren’t even close to the ones you used.
Debbie says
Try the Dollar General or Walmart, Target – they all have gift bags. Good luck 🙂
Deborah says
The truck is also my favorite. Thank you for sharing it! I will be looking for them at my Dollar Tree.
Barbara says
Love these prints! What a brilliant idea. You have inspired me to look closely at gift bags for all seasons!
Thank you and keep on sharing your creativity!
Harriett says
This is a neat idea. But your painting of the birch trunks remains my favorite. I find it fascinating.
Debbie says
Thanks Harriet, I still need to do a demo on them! Have a great weekend!
Bliss says

I would think all dollar tree stores would have the same items. I have been in the one in my town and the clerks say these bags have not been in their store. Wish I could find them. My fav is the truck.
Debbie says
So sorry Karey! I hope you find them somewhere!
