Way Cool! You must have very blessed to have a generous budget? We did our rooms 9 years ago and had no money...so did bargain shopping, rummage sales, etc.

We did not have a big budget. The movie seats and were donated, but other than that, mostly paint, yard sales and donations. Salvation army and donations for costumes. Donated fabric or discount store. I did buy some big tassels. And the Elks club has a huge fabric sale once a year if you are feeling aggressive-makes Filenes basement look like a tea party. An artist donated her time for the mural. The movie poster I bought and are "on loan." I think we spent maybe $500, not too much more than we were spending on curriculum per year previously. And my time, and I did alot off the clock in the summer. I had gone through the process once before at a different church so I think that helped. People are generous. Thanks for looking.

Good to know! God works in wondrous ways! It's always good to get more ideas and see how the Workshop Model Ministry has grown and the life changing events that have happened because of this mission.
