I've been lucky enough to have a team of dedicated parents to help me with my vision
of our school's "Taste of the Town", an Autumn themed food, drinks, and game night for adults.
The objective was to keep the costs as L O W as possible. L O W as in free.
So we searched our homes and yards for things that would fit in to the theme.
Half the time I think the other parents thought I was crazy with some of my request.
But, they hung in there and worked their butts off!
I used Pinterest to help me create a vision for what I wanted the night to look like.
This really helped when I was trying to explain to my team what we needed to do to create
an event that was different than the usually school event.
My board for the event looks like this...

Are ya' gettin' the feelin'?
So, with all this inspiration form the online world, here's
what we have so far...
Burlap sacks for table toppers...
Small stumps for labeling items on the buffet and raffle table.
(which will be used at Thanksgiving for name cards)
Tons of Paper flower bouquets.
Paper & twine garlands.
Electric Candles.
And a pinch of Tiffany Blue added in for a burst of color.
(I didn't want to use typical "Fall" colors", so that's why I threw in the blue)
There's a lot more too.
Hopefully I'll take some photos of the set up and post them early next week.

What do you do to cut costs? Any tips?
