Madalena 13th Jan 2018 Activity Coordinator

Hi everyone hopefully you can help me with some ideas for burns night in Scotland that will be on the 25 January.
My budget is small and i have for lounges to decorate.Does anyone has a template of a thistle that i can make with the residents. I managed the tartan table runners and posters of burns and will try to download some of the traditional music and poems for the event.

Any suggestions? Thank's in advance
