Looking for suggestions... does anyone know an affordable way to get large pots or vases with a tall plant or tree (I want total height to be about 4 feet) that I can use along the sides of the auditorium? The walls in my church are very white and plain along the sides and with how we're setting up the chairs there will be a fair amount of space there too.
What I wanted to do was rent large potted plants or trees but the prices I found were around $45/each! Since I will need either 6 or 8 of them that's pretty outrageous. I'd rather not have anything than spend that much.
So now I'm thinking of going to Ikea or Walmart for some large pots.. filling with soil.. and finding some large plants (either real or fake) to put in them.
Any ideas if there's a better option? Any places I should look for cheaper plants or pots? Even doing it this way I'm looking at 10-20 per pot plus 15-20 per plant.. I'd rather keep the cost around $100, max $150.
