The Purpose of this Blog:
This blog shares practical advice and ideas on how to plan events, decorate, and celebrate every day for less money. I will give examples of how I have saved money by finding what I want to buy, then recreating it for less. My first example: The picture to the left perfectly captures the theme of my blog. I found it online for nothing! It didn’t cost a single pinched penny, and I will use free pictures all over this blog. I’ll show pictures of my handiwork, but I like this free picture because it depicts what this blog is about. It’s cheap and gets the job done!
Our journey with frugal event planning
One of the features of this blog is to share practical tips for saving money without sacrificing the wow factor. Our goal is to help you plan extraordinary events with less.
I will write about true events. Hopefully I will get some questions from readers, then I can give different options for how to wow your friends, family, co-workers, other parents from school, the list goes on and on. Until then, I will use my real-life experiences about the many events I have done to show you that saving money planning any type of party can be done cheaply!
