Making reunion decorations on the cheap

Making reunion centerpiece on the cheap (but NICE!)

Ask your friends...my friend had TONS of clear vases leftover from a wedding. Didn't cost me a dime.

Check out the after holiday specials - I got this really cool trim for 75% off at a after Christmas sale at Pier 1

The flowers are from Michaels - try to hang on until a sale comes along - I got these 40% off - just make sure you buy more than enough - I bought too early and when a ton more people signed up for the reunion I had to scramble to find similar flowers...lesson learned...

These cost me .15 cents each at the after Christmas sale...

Helpers at the reunion unfluffing the 'pom pom's to hang among the trees.

I saw this posted on a booth and I liked what it had to say!


Paper butterflies - when I was a kid, everything was pink - pink bedroom, pink clothes, pink, pink, pink...

I'm getting ready for my class reunion and was searching the trade show floor for ideas for decorations. Can you see this in purple and gold?

My dear friend, PattieWack.

My friend, Cheryl Ball, created with butterfly dress - love it, Cheryl!!! Can I borrow it for my class reunion?

It was old home week at the show. Crafty Chica AKA Kathy Cano-Murillo shows off cannon spray paints in the i love to create booth.

This girl was soooo getting into spraying on dye to make a cool scarf.

I had so much fun making a button pin in the Blumental Lansing booth - it was great to be a crafter and enjoy all of the make-it and take-its.

Can you tell what this dress is made from?

Purple and gold??? Hanging from the oak trees at my reunion?

Too cute, paper dress.

When my brother remodeled his house (the house I grew up in) he offered me an old lighting fixture from the hall. I'm thinking it would look great as the top of a mobile like this.

Kathy Ireland was on the floor showing her new trims.

Such a colorful display of afghans and hats.
