Description: I made a bulletin board encouraging smokers to quit during the holiday season by making a bulletin board look like a big present. To do this I taped a large piece of Christmas, wrapping paper to the wall and then placed a coordinating bow at the top of the display. I then gathered facts about the health risks of smoking and statistics on the amount of people who become victims to the different health consequences each year due to smoking. I took these facts and printed each one on individual pieces of construction paper which were shaped like presents too (just square pieces of paper with curling ribbon attached to the top of each present). Next, I placed a computer, printed banner above the bulletin which read, "These are the gifts you're giving yourself when you smoke!". Finally, I taped a suggestion sheet next to the bulletin informing smokers the steps to quitting the deadly habit.

Instructions, Things Needed:

~Christmas wrapping paper
~Curling ribbon (red, green, gold, white and silver)
~Construction paper (red, green and white)
~Tape, scissors and markers
