Someone just told me that if you give them a small donation you can rent chairs from them.

Yes my friend does this every year for her block party. She has about 100 people at her house, so it helps tremendously.

I just don't know if I could actually do that. I feel like the chairs have such sadness attached to them. I mean, I KNOW they are only chairs, butChat Icon

I didn't know that, but I did know that they will donate flowers after a wake.

My HS used to stage a mock wedding for a business law class and that's where they got the flowers from.

I'm so glad you said that. I was afraid I was the only one thinking this!

When my cousin was PTA president they used to get arrangements from funeral homes, pull them apart and put them in vases for centerpieces for awards dinners and such. The funeral home was happy that they were being used rather than just tossed.
