Decorating on a Budget Who isn’t decorating on a budget these days? Take a look at our economy and its obvious why couponing has become so popular. Well, we have a few great decorating tips that shouldn’t cost you more than a dime and some time. If you have kids, know that these decorations make great crafts, too. You may remember popcorn strings from when you were a kid. It involves stringing popcorn on thread like a bead and making what looks like snowflakes on the Christmas tree.

With Christmas colored construction paper and some paint, crayons, or markers, you can cut and draw shapes and Christmas pictures to hang on the tree. Kids love it and it adds such a personal touch to your Christmas décor. You can make wreaths from items around the house, such as recycled fabrics, ties, corks, cards and the like, which means you can make quite a few and place them all around the house while you save the fresh wreath that you get at Allen’s Flowers and Plants for the front door. Make snowflakes and angels with the kids. You can do this by [...]
