Not too bad considering I can reuse most of what I have for other decor projects once the season is over. I had coupons from JoAnns and Michaels was having a heck of a sale, so I didn't pay full price for anything. I wish I had found a tablecloth or runner. I'm hoping I'll get lucky with that next time. I'm planning on using the leftover pine cones to make ornaments for the Christmas tree. I'm going to glue ribbon to the pine cones and just hang them up. I might let the kids put glitter on them, too. The decor has to be skimpy this year because my 2 and 3 year olds will just tear up anything they can get their hands on, and I'm done spending money.
