It’s hard to imagine the modern fantasy world without Sarah J. Maas. With more than 75 million books sold worldwide, the bestselling author has built an empire of magic, romance and unforgettable characters across A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR), Throne of Glass and Crescent City. Her books have helped make “romantasy”—the irresistible mashup of fantasy and romance—a full-blown publishing phenomenon, inspiring an especially devoted fandom that can’t get enough of her richly imagined worlds.
And if you’re one of the millions of readers who has fallen head-over-heels for Feyre, Rhysand and the rest of the ACOTAR crew and can’t wait for the two newest installments A Court of Splintered Harmony (releasing on October 27) and A Court of Forgotten Melody (releasing January 12, 2027)—or simply love the moody, magical aesthetic of all of Maas’ books—you’re going to want to see these finds.
We rounded up Sarah J. Maas-inspired decor from Dollar Tree that can help bring a little of that enchanted, otherworldly feeling into your own home, without spending a fortune. Here’s how to recreate the look with a few seriously budget-friendly treasures.
What Is Sarah J. Maas’ Aesthetic?
If Sarah J. Maas’ books had a look, it would be moody, magical and a little mysterious—the kind of space that feels like you could curl up with a book and accidentally step through a portal to Prythian. Think rich, dramatic colors like midnight black, deep navy, royal purple, amber and burnt orange, layered with shimmering gold and silver accents. Earthy shades, including forest green and deep red-brown, add warmth and keep the space from feeling too dark.
The magic is in the details, too. Dark or rustic wood, romantic florals, flickering candles and vintage-inspired accents can instantly give a room that enchanted-library-meets-fantasy-tavern feel. Look for bookish decor, botanical touches and tavern-style hanging signs to really lean into the aesthetic. And, of course, the more candlelight, the better—because nothing says romantasy heroine quite like a room glowing with candles while you dive into your latest Sarah J. Maas obsession.
Dollar Tree’s Sarah J. Maas aesthetic
Star novelty pens
Add a little starlight to your desk with these star novelty pens. Topped with a whimsical star, they feel like they were plucked straight from one of Sarah J. Maas’ magical worlds—and they’re a fun way to bring the romantasy aesthetic into your everyday space. Choose from pink, purple, blue or green, then display your favorites on a dark wood desk, tucked into a book-shaped pen holder or alongside your latest fantasy read. At just $1.25 each, they’re an easy little splurge, whether you pick one or collect all four.
Dollar Tree shoppers adore these pens and you will too! One review for the product reads, “Super cute pen that always made journaling something to look forward to,” while another says, “I love these pens! I used these as party favors for my daughter’s Sailor Moon birthday party!!”
Taper candles
No Sarah J. Maas-inspired space is complete without a little candlelight. Pick up a few of these taper candles to create the warm, flickering glow that makes any room feel instantly more magical. The ivory shade is especially perfect for the aesthetic, adding a soft, romantic touch without competing with the deeper, moodier colors. And if ivory isn’t your vibe, they’re available in other colors, too. Best of all, you can snag a two-pack for just $1.25, making it an easy—and incredibly affordable—way to add a little ACOTAR-inspired ambiance to your space.
One happy shopper wrote in a review, “These candles burn thoroughly and evenly. I love them for all my candle holders and flower arrangements. Price is the main reason I buy them at the Dollar Tree.”
Glass candle holder
Get all of the elegance of Sarah J. Maas’ aesthetic by grabbing these glass taper candle holders. The holder is a stunning choice to hold whichever candle you pick out for the ambient lighting and adds yet another element of the author’s aesthetic. For just $1.25 a piece, the glass candle holder is worth the buy.
One review for the product reads, “I love these glass candleholders. As a person who enjoy doing DYIs these can be used to make so many beautiful pieces. They are beautiful and expensive looking.” Another says, “I buy these for whenever I need to make centerpieces. They are the right height to add to a centerpiece to give it depth and a little razzle dazzle. These are a crafting staple for me!”
Charger plates
Bring a little Sarah J. Maas magic to your dinner table with these gorgeous charger plates that look far more expensive than their $1.50 price tag. The navy blue has the deep, moody feel of a night in Erilea, making it a fun nod to the Throne of Glass series, while the gold charger plate feels fit for a royal Crescent City celebration. Better yet, layer the two together for a dramatic tablescape that combines both aesthetics. At just $1.50 each, you can mix, match and create a fantasy-worthy feast without spending a fortune.
A pleased Dollar Tree shopper reviewed the product, writing, “I love the prices and quality of your products. You have always made my events look amazing for a very great price.”
Sun and moon wall decor
The sun and moon are heavily used motifs throughout all of Sarah J. Maas’ work, so what better piece of decor than this sun and moon wall piece? For just $5, you can incorporate one of the main pieces of the aesthetic while also adding in the pop of silver or gold you need. You can also find the item in a deep orange, which is yet another one of the aesthetic’s colors. Grab yours now to complete your new look.
