Christmas Parade Float Ideas: Theme "Home for the Holidays"

I am looking for ideas for a Christmas float with the theme: Home for the Holidays. Please keep in mind we have more of a trailer than a flatbed for our float. It is kind of like the trailers gardeners use where the sides come up to about waist level. It will be holding the marimbas and mallet section for our band's drumline. I want ours to be really creative this year.

A marimba? Hmm, sounds like a theme is already developing with your float:) Home is where the heart is, and music is the heart of a home-since you are using a marimba band, maybe your float should reflect the Christmas customs of the area the marimba comes from.

I think it would be pretty to put a bunch of candy canes and then maybe a balloon of Santa Claus of some sort. Then it would be fun to have a lot of sparkly things on the float.

Here are some links to making a float, it sounds like so much fun!
