Planning to end summer with a bang, but want to do it without squeezing your bank account dry? Thankfully the internet is a giving place, full of freebies that will make your Labor Day party one to remember. So don't simply let the calendar slip into fall without giving summer a proper send off.
Party Invite
Round up your besties and ensure they make plans to spend Labor Day with you by sending out an invite. Don't spend money on this key party ingredient. Instead print out a freebie at ItBakesMeHappy.com or MarthaStewart.com. Fill in a few key details, stuff them in envelopes and get ready for a day of fun.
Food Labels
Put some fancy in your presentation of Jell-o casserole or corn on the cob with free printables from ZooCutiePrintables.com. You'll need Adobe Reader to be able to edit the text, font and ink colors.
Recipes
Burgers and hot dogs are a must for any Labor Day party. But before you fire up the grill, serve up some delicious party-friendly apps. Find a list of ten great recipes at MilitaryWivesSaving.com. Whip up some hot spinach and artichoke dip or veggie bars to curb appetites until the main event.
Party Decor
Did you know that Grover Cleveland created Labor Day in 1894? Tap into the retro side of this American holiday with free printable party decor available at catchmyparty.com. The collection includes a frameable sign, tent cards and food circles.
Classic Entertainment
No need to spend money to keep Labor Day guests entertained. Instead pull out sidewalk chalk, bubbles or a soccer ball. Start up a game of backyard kickball or hide-and-go-seek. Say so-long to summer by finishing off the night with a bonfire and a generous serving of graham crackers, marshmallows and chocolate. No one will question how much money you spent because the memories you'll create will be priceless.
