Jubilee Ideas

Some of these ideas have been extracted from the HobbyCraft web site

Having a party?

Party Tables Cover tables with red, white and blue crepe paper - weighted at the corners to stop them flying away.  

Flower Power Staying with your red, white and blue theme, place small
displays of fabric flowers in the centre of tables.  Add small Union Jack
sandwich flags - for extra decoration.

Guards of Honour
Make colourful red, white and blue streamers from strips
of crepe paper or tissue paper, attached to a dowel stick. 'Plant' along driveways and
pathways to create 'guards of honour' to welcome your guests.

Regal Ribbon Drape it around the home and garden and make colourful bows to add a splash of regal colour inside and out.

Balloon Bonanza Festoon the house and garden with balloons hung with
ribbon and crepe paper chains in red, white and blue.

Crowning Glory Make regal crowns and tiaras for your guests - and issue
everyone who stays until the end with a Fimo Jubilee medal


Frame It Don't forget to capture your special moments on camera and frame
the prints for posterity

Memory Box You can also make a Golden Jubilee Memory Box to collect all those little mementoes that never fit into a photograph album! 

Medal of Honour If you have a pet, award it with a Jubilee Medal for its
loyalty


Face Painting Red, white and blue faces for Jubilee fun

Jubilee colony scrap book with all the Beavers collecting ideas and info from magazines,
newspapers etc.

Rosettes to wear - in red, white and blue
