Have more kids and just watch your school project succah decorations multiply.

Oh, no, wait, that’s very expensive

What kind of an answer is this? Trying to understand, what exactly are you trying to say? Anyway, in the meantime, Hug

amother was joking. I laughed.

amazing savings, if you have one in your city, usually carries a nice supply of sukka decor at decent prices.

for diys, I bought some picture frames that I'll paint and put family related sukkah photos into it.

You can buy a nice backdrop on Amazon to put up on one wall. Make sure you have your measurements before ordering.

Like curtains?

Our succah gets wet. I’m worried it will get moldy or just stay wet after the rain.

We take pictures of the kids outside the sukkah on chol hamoed and then print them out enlarged (Walgreens is great for that) and put them in ziploc bags before taping to the wall so they wont get damaged by the rain. The next year they love seeing how much they have grown since the previous sukkos.

No like a photo backdrop. It's made from synthetic material, doesn't absorb. There are some nice scenes available.

If you get magazines like Mishpacha, you can cut out and laminate nice photos.

I have a few different sizes of these. We hang from the schach and put in 1-2 fresh flowers in each. Orchids work great. They usually stay fresh all yom tov.

Check out your local dollar store for ideas.

I have a bunch of lanterns I once found in Ikea for 1.50 each. I buy $ store electric tealights that I put in. I bought fake flowers that I threaded around the top. I hang them from the Schach. They are so pretty.

We have all sorts of school projects, and some bought items, like Tefillos you say before bentching Lulav/Esrog, Ushpizin, etc....

Besides school projects (and some deteriorate over the years) I bought a few posters that really spoke to me. Not cheap but not pricey. I was near an Amazing Savings one summer and found some nice decorations (poster style, vs. fruit, etc.).
