How To: Be Thankful Fall Garland

Need some last-minute decoration to welcome your Thanksgiving guests? Here's another spin on fall bunting that is easy, fast, and incorporates the sentiment of being thankful.

Cami of Full Circle got her kids involved in this activity which only requires paper, scissors and string. What we really love about it is that everyone wrote something they were thankful for on each leaf. This might be nice to read as you're gathered around a Thanksgiving table or you could pass out leaves at the table for writing and hang them afterwards as a remembrance.

Visit Cami at Full Circle where she's also linked to a leaf template to use.

AH!
I soo did this- but horizontally and with pumpkins too... They're draped accross our windows in the our living room and accross our porch. It's a really sweet look and has been up since before halloween. I had a little fall-fun-party for my son- These garlands were the decorations. I like the vertical look but I don't think our 2 year old is ready for things he can pull down ; )
I saw a potterybarn garland for christmas with ribbon and felt candy canes- The candy canes have clips on the back to hold holiday cards... I'm gonna try to make some!
