10 New Dollar General Home Items That Look Way More Expensive Than They Are

Whether you're in the midst of a bedroom re-vamp or have just moved into a new place, you're probably eager to fill your space with charming decor and home items. Popular home decor stores can be a great source of inspiration during times like these, but some of the higher-end options come with a hefty price tag. If you're looking to keep your budget tight, then Dollar General might surprise you. Currently, the dollar store chain has a wide range of new home items that look way more expensive than they actually are.

With some items costing as little as $1.50, you really can't go wrong with a trip to your local Dollar General. You will find everything from glass wine racks to holiday decor and tabletop fire pits — all for less than $20. So if you're interested in jumping on expensive decor trends that you can score for cheap, then these items are sure to pique your interest.

Artificial Succulent with Terracotta Pot

With so many unique ways to decorate your home with plants, it's always a good idea to pick up nice greenery when you see it, especially when you see it for a good price. At Dollar General you can choose from an assortment of faux plants that almost look real. The Artificial Succulent with Terracotta Pot, in particular, comes with a rustic terracotta pot that looks far more expensive than the $1.50 the store is charging online.

Dolly Parton Salt and Pepper Shaker

Whether you go for the candy-themed shakers or the gingerbread people, these little kitchen trinkets would certainly run you more than $5 at bigger home decor stores, especially with a big celebrity name on them.

Christmas Rectangular Lumbar Pillow

Much like throw blankets, throw pillows are performing double duty, serving as easy but cute decor while also being readily available whenever you want to rest your head. Dollar General's Christmas Rectangular Lumbar Pillows are especially cute for the holiday season. These pillows in particular have two design choices: Three Christmas-themed dogs, or three nutcrackers with legs that dangle off of the pillow. At $12, the pillows are a real steal, especially when similar designs from Pottery Barn are going for nearly $50.
