Check Michael's or any craft store. Some specialty wedding shops also carry them. If you can't find one, make it your self, and it will have even more meaning to you.

try stringing life savers on fishing line.  they catch the lights very nicely, and they're yummy to boot!  make it a candy theme, with candy canes, cookies and other favorite sweets.  i myself prefer theme-less trees.  just stick on as many lights and ornaments as you can.  the gaudier, the better.  merry christmas!

rectangular milkcrates (not the square ones) make perfect record holders. i got some in nifty colors at target for super cheep. I'm sure you can find them for free and decorate them too. \n\nOtherwise, try antique stores or thrift stores, or ebay.

A lot of times, just the little things can make a difference between "ok" and "memorable".\nhmmm, party ideas:\n• come up with 2 or 3 colors to set your party mood. This year, we are going with a yellow-green, bright pink, and  a deep cranberry red for a real 50's retro Christmas look.\n• Serving punch or eggnog? Dip the edge of glasses in water or apple juice, then rim the glasses with plain or colored sugar for a pretty sparkle effect. \n• Use napkin rings in your chosen colors. \n• How about renting an arch for people to stand under for picture taking? You can decorate it with balloons in Christmas colors, tufts of iridescent garland, and maybe some mistletoe or pine boughs at the top. Stand it in front of a plain curtain for a solid background.\n• Come up with cute take home party favors so guest will remember the night even more. Cheap plastic ornaments with the group name and year written in silver or gold marker are always nice. \n• Get a guest book to sign at the entrance to make the party feel more special.\nHope these help, and have a wonderful time!

At the school where my mom works they have the kids bring in 100 things and make a collage or something.  Or if you have fruit loops or Cheerios or just beads you can make necklaces with 100 on each.  Another neat thing to do is hide 100 small prizes (party favors for ex.) around the room and have a hunt for them.  One last suggestion that i have is to divide 100 by the number of students you have and have each kid bring in that number of pictures of their favorite things or people.  Then you can make a collage in the shape of a 100 for your classroom.

Do a $1 grab bag....everyone brings something from the dollar store, wraps it, and puts it in a grab bag.  During the night, you get to pick one out if you brought one in. \n\nChristmas Karaoke\n\nAsk your mom to go to orientaltrading.com for CHEAP party decor and favors...I mean CHEAP!  And CUTE!

Here's an idea, it's what my husband and I did:  At the reception, have small photo frames (I bought nice, but inexpensive ones at Christmas Tree Shop) with a piece of paper in them.  On the paper it said the guests name, table #, and meal choice.  We did this on the computer, so it would look professional. We looped some ribbon on to the back of the frame, so it can be used as a Christmas tree ornament.   When we sent thank-you's (they arrived shortly before Christmas) we enclosed a picture of us in the card.  This picture was the right size for the frame.  We used the computer to put our names, and wedding date on the photo.   Some people use it as a small frame/decoration,and some use it on their tree.   Everyone seemed to like it, at least it is something everlasting.
