3-Tier Seasonal Serving Trays

Dark Green 2-Ply Lunch Napkins
- Price: $1.50

Fall Leaves Drink Napkins
- Price: $1.50
These fall leaves drink napkins boast colorful, assorted leaves, acorns and a plaid border to represent the changing season. Each napkin measures 9.84 by 9.84 inches, which is slightly smaller than Dollar Tree’s lunch napkins that are 13 by 13 inches. Pick up a 24-count pack for autumn gatherings with appetizers or cocktails on the menu.
Seasonal Collection Paper Plates
- Price: $1.50
If you’re serving more than appetizers at autumn celebrations, buy one or more packs of these fall-themed seasonal collection paper plates.
