These tips and ideas are great for the Fall/Autumn and
Thanksgiving season.
Pick up acorns and let them dry out and then add to baskets
and jars for a fall look.
Pick up fallen leaves of assorted colors and make an
arrangement of them in a vase or maybe a jar.
Lay mini pumpkins and other gourds around the house and in
baskets.
Hollow out a pumpkin to make room for a glass jar in which
you add water to the jar and put flowers in the jar
which
makes the pumpkin look like a vase.
Hollow out mini and smaller pumpkins and use as candle
holders. (If you light the candles always use care and
common sense in any situation you use lit candles and never
leave them unattended.)
Use mini pumkins, gourds or leaves as name tags at place
settings, simply write the name on the item.
Let the children make a pine cone turkey. Simply lay the
pine cone on its side and cut small colorful feathers
from
construction paper and glue them on the large end of the
cone and then glue wiggly eyes and orange paper beak
for its
facial features.
Use a light colored sheet as a table cloth and let all your
guests sign their name and write what they
are thankful
for. Save it and reuse it again the following year and
compare from year to year what you are thankful
for.
