Christmas Float Ideas

RE: Christmas Float Ideas By Terita (1) Contact I work for a non-profit organization and we have limited funds so, we decided to try setting 4 chairs in the back of a pick-up or a trailer hitched to the back of the truck. Use the 4 chairs to seat able bodies, (People) Ha! Wrap large square boxes (Not Rectangle because of the room involved) with Christmas wrapping paper. Cut a hole at the top for the head to fit through and one hole on each side for the arms. Have the person sit down in the chair then place the wrapped box over them. Place a BIG BOW on their head. Our them is " This Christmas give the gift of yourself." Since we take care of the Elderly and Disabled, we felt this theme was fitting, to volunteer your time to help someone. Of course, decorate the vehicle or trailer with plenty of garland etc. Our banners were to cost 300.00 however, our budget would not cover something that expensive. So, I decided to make the banners myself. All you do is purchase a few of the poster type boards, the plastic, thick kind as big as you would like. Then, have plenty of ink in your printer. Hopefully you have a computer. Go to Microsoft Works etc, where you can type letters or documents. At the top of the application, where it has the size of the letters (Font), delete the number that is in the filed then type in 400, this will give you 4" letters all ready to place on your poster or banner. size them up, space them out and tape them down where you want them. Then cover with Clear Drawer liner to protect them. Works great and saves a ton of money and looks very professional! Of course choose the color you want the letters to be and print each letter one at a time. Have fun!

Suckers, take dowel rods, place a round Styrofoam piece on it, and cover it with colored saran wrap. Tootsie rolls,We also took toilet paper rollers, painted them brown, wrote on them with orange painer markers, and then glued white paper to ends and bunched up ends, and tied them. Peppermint candy, take round disks of Styrofoam and paint red swirls on them.

We used this theme before and it was really cute. Just use anything to do with dental and hang them on the tree. We used candy lips, bubba teeth, and any thing smiley, lots of smiles. It'll look great. Good luck.
