Consider picking up a cheerful pumpkin made of tinsel to hang on your front door.

Tinsel may be closely associated with decorating Christmas trees, but there's no reason you can't use it to get ready for Halloween, too.

Haught loves these Halloween pumpkins, which are made from orange and black tinsel and measure 8.5 inches by 13.5 inches. 

"This is a great welcoming pumpkin for your entrance," Haught told Insider. "Even during this scary season, it is nice to have a festive smile greet guests and young trick-or-treaters."

Add a touch of sparkle to your space with these creepy tree branches.

Glitter is still having a moment and there's no reason you shouldn't incorporate the sparkly goodness into your Halloween decor this October.

The branches, which have an overall rating of five stars, are 14 inches in length and come in black, orange, and purple. 

"These branches are a lot of bang for your buck," Haught told Insider. "You can use them to grace foyers, mantles, and dining-room sideboards. These branches will give a spooky sparkle in the candlelight."

These coffin nesting boxes will give your dining table a Halloween-inspired vibe.

These nesting coffin sets from Dollar Tree are available in black, orange, and tan, and come in three sizes ranging from small to large. 

"Coffin-shaped Matryoshka-style boxes are great on the table for a sit-down dinner," said Haught. "They also make great Halloween party favors for anyone."

A tea-light-candle holder that looks like a pumpkin or a ghost will light up your spooky space.

Get your bathroom counter or living-room mantle ready for Halloween with these orange and white ceramic tea-light holders.

Perfect for compact spaces, the ghost and pumpkin candle holders are quite small, measuring 3.75 inches by 3.5 inches.

"These adorable candle holders are perfect for gracing kitchen tables and fireplace mantles, too" Haught suggested.

Cylinder-shaped black candles will add a hair-raising flair to your home.

One of Haught's most loved items from Dollar Tree's Halloween-decor section are these dark candles.

She said she recommends pairing them with more candles that are about the same size "for a ghostly and dramatic mantle or sideboard."

Try picking up a candle holder that looks just like that Jack-o'-lantern candy bucket you had as a kid.

Pumpkins are the pinnacle of Halloween decor, and you can't go wrong by placing a few of these glass pumpkin candle holders throughout your home.

For added flair, you can fill them with some of Dollar Tree's seasonal scented tea lights that come in options like Cracklin' Fire, Maple Pumpkin Cream, Sweet Harvest Fig, and Cinnamon Spice. 

"I think tea-light candles en masse are the key to great decorating," said Haught. "You can pair these with seasonal scented and colored tea lights."

Hang a few of these orange string lights before the trick-or-treaters arrive.

Who says holiday lights are just for December? Tis' the season for all things Halloween with these tiny orange string lights. 

"I have used these for years on my entryway shrubs," Haught told Insider. "They welcome autumnal guests. I recommend putting the lights on a timer so the strands automatically turn on each night at dusk."

These black- and beige-colored linens can add a spooky, soft feel to your mantle.

Decorating with faux spider webs is a popular way to get ready for Halloween, but you can take your decor to a whole new level of eerie by draping your mantle or mirror with a pack of mummy-like cloths. 

"Creepy cloths in black and beige will go a long way when you're decorating your home for  Halloween," said Haught. Dollar Tree suggests using the cloths to decorate gates, entryways, or tables this October.
