I'm look for a way to decorate my cabin for next event does anyone have any good places to get items for this?

Goodwill is a good place to find things.

A few inexpensive sheets to hang is a good start, too.

I will highly recommend a good, sturdy Bin to keep it all in, that you can pack it all into between events.

Feel free to visit some of the decorated cabins and ask the occupants for suggestions for future ideas.

If you use a bin to store your costumes, throw a sheet over it and put a box on top. Instant table with decoration.
Home Goods has some inexpensive cool props like lanterns or boxes that look like books.

Mason jars with "components" in them...use herbs, candy, glass, etc...whatever you can find that looks interesting.

Just try to stick to a theme and remember: less and well thought out is better than just having a bunch of random stuff.

Also, several of us work at Michael's Arts and Crafts (Myself, Chris Z. and Laura W. at the very least). If there's something you wanted from there, we might be able to help you get it at a discount if you let us know what you were looking for.

Also, if you go to Joann's, they have a remnant bin. You can find really pretty tapestry and sari fabric for hangings and drapings.
