Christmas Float Ideas: "Christmas' Past"

RE: Christmas Float Ideas: "Christmas' Past" By Andrea (Guest Post) How about a tribute to the nurses of the American Red Cross. During many Christmas Celebrations through US history the American Red Cross created Christmas Celebrations for the men who were enlisted and away from home. It would be fun, easy enough to create and would honor the women who worked so hard... Plus you may be able to get the American Red Cross in your town involved! Good luck!

Posted on 08/31/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Christmas Float Ideas: "Christmas' Past" By Penny Foss (Guest Post) How about a theme like something out of Currier and Ives-a cozy warm kitchen scene with children making cookies and X-mas tree deco's by an old-fashioned stove and oil lamp, or maybe a Kinkaid winter scene photo/X-mas scene of family and relatives taking the horse and buggy out on a snowy eve to deliver presents to other families and friends with scenes of old Victorian houses dressed in Christmas best! At any rate a look see at your local library can give you some good theme idea's too. Might look at some old Norman Rockwell illustrations too for some nifty idea's-ie -Christmas at the Fire House etc showing old fashion Fire trucks dressed up in Christmas finery? At rate, enjoy and have fun! Posted on 08/28/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Christmas Float Ideas: "Christmas' Past" By Karen Lawson (Guest Post) I love the Elvis and poodle skirt idea too!!! Immediately I thought about the old silver aluminum Christmas trees! I guess that was more in the 60's. I remember we had one when I was a kid. They are making a comeback too! Good luck! I'd love to see the pics when you get it done whatever idea you come up with!

Why not make a faux jukebox (use cardboard boxes for the base and cover with colored paper, then run Christmas lights through holes poked holes from the inside), and have Santa bopping and jiving right beside it along with the girls in poodle skirts? Cute!

You could have a potpouri burning(put in a metal pail in case it gets toppled over) with cinnamon, allspice and ginger. The cookies could be real or made out of playdough Others could be dressed for carolling behind a door waiting for a treat for a song Add lots of decorations Posted on 08/27/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Christmas Float Ideas: "Christmas' Past" By (Guest Post) How far "past"? How about a nativity scene on half and Xmas tree. stockings, maybe kids/g.kids singing carols on the other (Or 2 floats and elaborate each).
