Choose Simple Decorations
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\nTo make the most of your Prom decorations, think \u201ceasy.\u201d Choose pieces that are simple and quick to set up, take down, store, and transport. Things like wire structures<\/a>, balloons<\/a>, fabric<\/a>, silhouettes and stand-ups<\/a>, and background paper<\/a> are great options. If you\u2019re including a complete theme<\/a> as part of your Prom decorating ideas, focus your energy and time there, and go simple and easy with the rest of your d\u00e9cor.<\/p>\n![\"Anderson_Reusable_Decor\"](\"http:\/\/www.andersons.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Prom_Wire_Structure.jpg\")
<\/a><\/p>\nReusable Prom Decor<\/strong><\/h2>\nChoose as much reusable Prom d\u00e9cor as possible. While you want some things personalized for this year\u2019s Prom, the more non-customized d\u00e9cor you have the better. Fabric, background paper, lighting<\/a>, table covers<\/a>, faux flowers<\/a>, and even some theme props can be stored and reused for next year\u2019s prom, drama productions, team banquets, and other events during the year.<\/p>\nMix and Match Prom Decor<\/strong><\/h2>\nFor maximum efficiency and value, mix purchased Prom decorations with hand made ones (recruit crafty students or parents to help out), or buy economical d\u00e9cor and enhance it yourself to create a more upscale look. Try these fun ideas:<\/p>\n
\n- Purchase inexpensive mason jars and fill them with mini lights for a million-dollar look.<\/li>\n
- Purchase glassware<\/a> favors, then embellish them yourself with glitter, paint, or bling to turn them into upscale keepsakes.<\/li>\n
- Take simple tin buckets, paint them a color, and embellish them with stenciled letters or designs to match your theme.<\/li>\n
- Use realistic-looking faux flowers to enhance everything from column tops to glassware pieces.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
