Cut colored paper into half sheets. In pencil, write one letter onto each colored paper, spelling a Thanksgiving word, like: Thankful, Give Thanks, Thanksgiving. Collect “natural” items for forming letters. These natural items can include: dried cranberries, marshmallows, sticks, hay, leaves, raisins, popcorn, leaves. With craft glue, glue collected items onto the penciled letters. Let the glue dry completely.
Now hang each paper onto a wall that will be seen by the guests. This is one my family did 3 years ago.
Matt wanted to do the letter M, but he ate a lot of marshmallows in the process.
Enjoy the natural beauty of the banner that will help set the mood of the dinner to come.
