Dollar Store Fall Runner

I'm always scouring the dollar store for thrifty craft inspiration.  This season when I saw these felt pumpkins and maple leaves I knew I had to find a way to incorporate them in my Fall decor!  It was so simple and fast to sew three together for a cute Fall table runner.

To sew the felt mats together I simply used a heavy duty needle (the felt is quite thick) and jute twine I had on hand.  Total cost just $3!
My runner is pretty short to fit on the kitchen sideboard but for just a few bucks more (each mat is a $1) you could make one for the Thanksgiving dining table.  Dollar Tree stocks these mats for every season - perfect for Christmas or Easter decorating too!

Have you made any dollar store Fall decorations yet?

Thanks for visiting!
