Tina,

One more that I think may be Awesome for your situation....Popping Cork
Champaign Bottle

	Learned this at a class and really can't remember the instructor....

	Empty or corked champaign bottle
Cork
	Iridescent paper (1 sheet)
	Wire (not quite as big as the gauge of clothes hanger)
	Plastic Champaign Glasses (optional)
	260Q Clears (optional) - iridescent shred (optional)

You take the Iridescent paper and wrap it loosely around the wire.  At one
end push the paper down toward the other end.  What you should get is the
paper pushed into a tornado shape.  (Boy, this is hard to describe!)  Now
where the bare wire is, on that end push on the cork. and put the other end
into the bottle top.  Then if you want, glue the plastic champaign glasses
(2, 3, or 4) on the sides of the bottle and add 260Q bubbles and/or
iridescent shred.

These are easy and fun.  It appears like the cork is in mid-air popping off
the Champaign Bottle and the Champaign is bursting out.  Can add helium
balloons to some.

Eventfully Yours!
