What was the last thing you festooned?

Festoon can also be a verb that is used as a synonym of "decorate" or "adorn" (as in "the room was festooned with streamers and balloons"). The verb "festoon," which first appeared in the late 1700s, comes from the noun "festoon," which appeared over 100 years earlier.

    I asked this question last year. It's deja vu all over again. (I'm too lazy to put the funny marks over the e and a.)

    I can't remember festooning anything. This post was edited by Element 99 at June 14, 2019 10:38 PM MDT

      Oh. Well, if you've asked it before, I'm going to delete mine. I don't want to be a copy-cat.

    The coffee table - with flowers and decoratively arranged bowls of pickles and nuts - expecting friends to arrive for lunch any minute now.
