How to Create Thanksgiving Streamers

Video Transcript

"Hi. I'm Matt Cail and behalf of Expert Village, I'm going to show you how to add some festive decorations to your Thanksgiving day. Another fun decoration you can use Thanksgiving are streamers. It's a really really great thing of paper, they're a lot of fun and what's better -they're very affordable. Now there are a bunch of different ways you can hang up streamers around your house for Thanksgiving. The way that I prefer, is basically you take the streamer like this and you give it a couple of twist. Now see like the nice twisting shape that gives that very pleasing to the eye. Basically that's what suggest you go with for streamers. All you need to do is you need to get some transparent tape. That's the best thing for these. These are very lightweight, so unless you have a wall where nothing sticks to it - some couple of pieces of transparent tape are going to be able to put up your streamers. What I then do, is I tend to put one edge over here and then what I'll do is I'll twist it several times and then basically form an upside arc. This is a really nice thing to do and then basically you'll repeat this again and again going throughout a room. Don't overdo it. I try not to have the arcs any less than 10 feet apart at the minimum. Often times I've seen them 15 to 20 feet apart. At the same time you want to make sure there's enough support so that your streamers not falling down all night long which can get very aggravating very quickly. Going with your colors to say yellow, brown, maybe orange - although yellow and brown is better can do like a real nice streamer decoration for you."
