The festive season has got us in its firm grip. Hardly recovered from Halloween's Tricks & Treats, our creative brain half needs to get busy again to put in order the big family get together on Thanksgiving Day.
Whilst you might hold on to the primary evening meal with turkey, potatoes, sweet corn and brussel sprouts, you may want to experiment with your decoration. So, why not try a 'Thanksgiving Balloon Bouquet'? It's quick and easy to make and your family will be impressed, guaranteed!
For one bouquet you'll need:
one foil balloon that matches the theme, for example a pumpkin, a smiley pilgrim or - in honour of Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade - your favourite cartoon character,
three high ability 11" latex balloons in a colour that goes well with your foil balloon,
colour matching curling ribbon (5mm wide),
a small basket, filled with autumn fruit and vegetables (the basket should have a cope where you can attach the ribbons) and
a small flask with helium to fill the balloons.
