Scottish Decorations for the (Very) Thrifty
The Year of the Cats There aren't any pictures of the year we honored Clan Chattan (Does
anyone have any?). However, we used primary colored tablecloths...and
used a runner of cat-embellished gift wrap (which was sold as a fund
raiser by our local schools) down the centers of the tables. We cut out
of plain old black construction paper...black arched-back cats...put two
of them together and stood them up in the centers of the tables...
You know what we did next! We scattered our mix of garland, ribbons,
glitter and candles down the middle. We had extra cats...and cut out some
giant ones to put up with "sticky stuff" (that comes off without harm) all
around the room.
Oh yes...our candy that year was chocolate hand-made cat-lollipops!
