My Husband and I ended up writing "WE LOVE YOU" with beads on a piece of green satin material over a pillow. We took a picture of it and made copies in eight by ten size and framed them for the kids. Everyone  still displays their picture. But I would love to do the satin ball thing if anyone finds the satin balls.
