Hello, list

Here's hoping there is someone out there reading this!  I need a bit of
advice on making balloon letters.  I am spelling HOPE, and making each
letter individually.  The letters are 3' tall each, and in using 5" sized to
4", I lose the shape of the letter somewhat.  Should I size to 3", or should
I redo the frames to 4 or 5 feet?  I made the frames out of 1/2" plastic
pvc, and am somewhat worried that they would be too "bouncy" with that large
of pieces.  They will be connected with mono line to each other, and tied to
my rod pillars and bases as it needs to be free standing.  And it is
outside.  I am doing this tommorrow, but still have time tonite to redo the
frame.  (Thank God for husbands!!)  One additional note this is completely
donated to the Cancer Society relay for life, so I want it to be special for
them!

Any help is much appreciated!
