Cheap Graduation Party Food Ideas (Menu for 100)

Are you looking for unique grad party food ideas? With 6 kids in our family, we have to stick to a very tight budget. So, when my oldest daughter was graduating from our homeschool, we knew that we would have to be very creative in our choices for the venue, food, and decorations. While it's very common for people in our part of Nebraska to grab frozen finger foods from Sam's Club, or a meat and cheese tray from the grocery store, we had only about $125 to spend total and many out of town relatives coming for the entire day. We had to feed them a full meal if we expected them to make the drive. (Note that this budget was created and met by shopping in bulk with my Sam's Club membership in 2017. Prices will vary, but I was able to get many items on sale or when they had their Instant Savings events. I planned ahead for a month or so to get the best deals!) No Sam's near you? Try BJs! The first thing that crossed my mind was pasta. It's what we eat when

How to Make Papier Mache (Paper Mache)

Papier Mache (or Paper Mache, as it's often spelled) is an easy and fun way to create a durable gift or decoration, and all kids can get involved. (It's also the ultimate recycled art project.) The process is rather simple, but it does take time and patience to get to the end of the project. Read on for your fuss-free paper mache tutorial : 1. Tear your paper strips . We use plain newspaper and make them an inch wide. Make an assortment of longer and shorter strips. You'll need different sizes to cover different areas of your project. 2. Make your paste. There are several different variations, but the cheapest and most affordable is to use one part flour to one part water. (We used Great Value brand flour for our project, but any white version will do.) Just mix them together in a bowl to create a smooth soup. Add one teaspoon salt to discourage mold. (This is important if you live in an area of high humidity!) 3. Prepare your surfa

Helpful Garden Hack: Wrapping Cages in Plastic Wrap

So, we've had some crazy springs and summers here in Nebraska. High winds, hail, random freezes, and heat waves have made it very hard to put newly transplanted bushes and tomato plants into the ground and have them make it. My husband came upon a clever idea to use Saran Wrap (or any high-grade plastic food wrap) around the bottom of tomato cages to keep out bunnies, hail, high winds, and cold temps. I have been over the moon with how well this works. Use several layers of wrap to keep it strong, and make sure it's tight! We have seen some very sickly looking plants turn out super-strong after a week in our wrapped cages. Use this method on pre-bought cages, or make your own cages with fencing cut to size and bent into a circle (like above.) Have you ever heard of doing this? What has your experience been like?
