We all know the holidays can quickly get expensive. From gifts to family dinner prep, the costs sure do add up. Well, thanks to Target, there’s one area where you can save some cash this year, and it’s your holiday décor.
The key to the holidays this year is to snag whatever you want early, and this includes your festive décor. Target has everything you need from wreaths and throw pillows, to actual Christmas trees, and all with budget-friendly price tags.
If you’re ready to deck those halls on a budget, here are some of our fave Target holiday decorations.

Wreaths
When it comes to wreaths, prices can skyrocket quickly, but they don’t have to. This adorable flocked garland wreath is ultra-festive with its red, white, and green ball ornament details. At 22-inches wide, it’s the perfect midsize option for your front door or others inside your home.
Yes, it’s also weather-resistant, and the ornament details are shatterproof. At just $22, this piece should still last you a few years and will be an option you’re happy to pull out of storage each year.
Want something a bit less traditional? Target has you covered there, too, with more modern styles, like this hoop wreath.
Garlands
Flocked trees and garlands are nothing new, but they appear to have risen in popularity over the last few years. They can also get pretty pricey. However, this option from Target measures a whopping 18 feet, is pre-lit, and, at this writing, costs around $70. Pretty great deal, right? Drape it over your banister or set it on top of your bookshelves.
If you prefer something a bit quirkier, Target’s got that, too! Check out the variety of fun pompom garlands, Merry Christmas banners, and colorful bottle brush tree garlands. Basically, if you want something to drape, Target’s got it.
Festive Door Mats
The holiday season means guests, and why not welcome them with this adorable, gnome-themed Christmas mat? Not only is it fun, but, thanks to its 100% coir material, it’ll prevent folks from tracking mud, snow, or leaves into your home.
Target isn’t short on designs either—you can also snag a traditional Happy Holidays or Hello Winter mat.
Signage
Need an easy, set-it-and-forget-it type of holiday decoration? Think signs—and Target has plenty. This “Happy Holidays” sign is large enough to make a real impact, and, thanks to that, you don’t even have to mount it to your wall.
Simply prop it by the door as a welcome sign or place it by your tree. The best thing about this sign, though, is it’s reversible—the opposite side is red and features the word “Merry” in bold, white letters.
Cozy Winter Throw Pillows
Getting cozy is a major part of the holiday season, so why not let it double as décor? This adorable snowflake pillow from Opalhouse designed by Jungalow is a perfect example of how to incorporate festive design.
The fun pom-pom details, soft pink velvet cover, and white embroidered snowflake, mean you can use these all winter, not just during the holidays.
Advent Calendars
For many people, nothing says Christmas like an advent calendar. While you might already have a food, drink, or beauty version, this adorable, felt Christmas tree advent calendar makes the perfect decorative display.
Whether you have kids, or you’re still a kid at heart, the bold, vibrant colors of this whimsical calendar are eye-catching. Also, because it’s felt, you can mount it practically anywhere using something as simple as a command hook (AKA, it’s renter-friendly). It really stands out from more traditional holiday designs. Plus, at just $10, it’s a steal!
If you prefer something a bit more traditional, check out this adorable antique truck, which uses blocks to countdown the days, or this light-up sign, which counts down how many sleeps there are until Santa arrives.
Throw Blankets
Not all holiday décor items have to be covered in snowflakes and Santa hats, and these knit throws from Opalhouse Designed with Jungalow are the perfect example. The chunky fabric gives them an unmistakable winter vibe, while the tassels add a festive flair.
Plus, because these all come in solid colors, you can use them year-round, not just during the holidays. If, however, you do want something a bit more on the (red) nose, check out this holly berry print or the fair isle-inspired design.
Nutcrackers
Nutcrackers are a holiday staple, and this classic design from Target’s Wondershop is perfect. With his black boots, white and gold glitter cape, and traditional hat, this nutcracker will fit in with any holiday décor or design style.
But he’s not alone—Target has rolled out a plethora of nutcracker options, including similar traditional versions, as well as some unique characters, like this dog and adorable penguin.
If you’re looking for some fun, but affordable, holiday décor, hit your local Target. From cozy throw pillows and blankets, to nutcrackers and advent calendars, it’s basically a one-stop holiday shop. And while you’re there, don’t forget that Target’s Black Friday promotions are already on!
