Subject: Re: Noah's Ark Date: Sat, 24 May 2003 20:53:19 -0600 From: Linda Herreman Marie Duncan, CBA -- Noah's Ark You could use link-a-loons or Rouse Matrix to create the Ark and then fill it with balloon animals in giant sizes. For the guests you could sculpt balloon hats with animals in 2 X 2 (2 swans on 1 hat -- 2 dogs on the next hat, etc.) or you could make animal hats for each guest (turn one male guest into an elephant with an elephant trunk and Ears hat and then a female guest to match). Make each pair of guests different animals. For Table pieces you could make miniature arks and use plastic animals to fill the arch & float clouds and rainbow balloon sculpture over each table top or use 160's and sculpt the animals in the arch. Place ark upon blue foil paper to represent water or upon mirrors for more upscale look. There are foam party hats to represent animals in the form of visors also available to provide for guests to wear in pairs. Fun party favors and another quick way to convert your guests is to by the plastic noses and then make balloon ears & tails for each pair of animals. Be sure and get the Unicorn song by the Irish Rovers and use as background music for the party. It also makes a fun game for children and adults to enter a giant arch and helps you remember some specific animals to create. Hope this will jumpstart your creative juices.
