For the sail, simply cut a curved rectangle from white bulletin board paper. 2) The Waves. Cut a strip of royal blue bulletin board paper big enough to cover the bottom third of the bulletin board {including a bit of The Mayflower's \"hull\"} and use craft scissors to add a scalloped edge to the top of the paper. Add waves to the paper using craft paint or chalk. 3) The Pilgrims. Add your students' pilgrim crafts to the boat as well as their notes of thanksgiving written on pieces of paper.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhile the \"Thanksgiving turkey\" is certainly a fun decoration - we love that this design provides a unique theme for the holiday!
