Hi. I'm Matt Cail and on behalf of Expert Village I'm going to show you how to add some festive decorations to your Thanksgiving Day. Why go out and buy decorations, when tapping the creative talents of yourself and other family members may provide you lots really great decorations? What I'm talking 'bout here is coming up with some drawings that you, your children, or other family members can even do. For this you're going to need some good white paper to draw with. You usually can get this very very cheap. You can use the same paper you print with off your computer. Now you're going to need stuff to draw with. So I recommend things like pencils, pens, crayons. All sorts of stuff. I'm sure you remember this from and arts and crafts back in the day. This is going to do this a little more like an activity at home now. You'd be surprised with just like a little bit of time can produce. Just like in your own family for Thanksgiving decorations. What you can do with these drawings, after you're done with them they can basically go right up on the fridge. Get a magnet or two and there you go. You have something that's much more personable that you ever would've gotten out of the store. At the same time, it's something that you have uniquely created. You can use them again year after year. It can just be on some basic Thanksgiving topic. You know, hey it's a turkey, it's a pilgrim - whatever. There are a lot different areas you can even to learn to be able to do these. To learn how to draw some of these guys for yourself. So it's all these things to keep in mind and it's a lot of fun. I mean it's much more fun than going to the store and dealing with the hassles of holiday traffic and all other sorts of craziness. So definitely keep in mind the idea of doing some of your own drawings and art and then putting them up on the fridge or elsewhere in your house to have your specialized Thanksgiving decorations.
