Turkey Leg Place Settings

DIY Thanksgiving Party Favors:  A Cute Turkey Legs Craft

Paper turkey leg place settings are a fun way to spruce up the Thanksgiving table and keep little ones busy. To keep the kids entertained, have them construct paper turkey legs filled with flavored popcorn and fun little trinkets to be used as place settings. Children can then find their seats and enjoy opening up the paper favors to see their surprise inside. The popcorn is a light appetizer to hold them over until mealtime and the toys will keep them happily occupied. No need to limit these place settings to just the kiddie table, feel free to make adult versions as well.

These cute turkey leg crafts can be stuffed with fun favors. These creative, unexpected Thanksgiving favors that will leave your dinner guests in awe. From personalized mementos to edible treats, you can stuff these Thanksgiving favors that will add a special touch to your holiday gathering. They are also a great idea to use as a place card at turkey time.

Turkey Leg Craft Supplies:

Thanksgiving craft turkey leg supplies
  • Freshly popped popcorn
  • Kernel Season’s™ Popcorn Seasonings
  • Letter stickers
  • Paper lunch bags
  • White scrapbooking paper
  • Glue stick
  • Scissors
  • Optional: Thanksgiving trinkets and/or candy and chocolates

Optional Stuffing Favor Ideas

First gather your goodies that you want to stuff into the party favors for thanksgiving. Popcorn is perfect or you can stuff these favors with chocolates, candy corn, caramel apples, lottery tickets, or whatever favor ideas you think your thanksgiving guests will enjoy. More great party favors to consider for stuffing the turkey legs are homemade apple butter jars, personalized Thanksgiving ornaments, turkey-shaped cookie favors, Thanksgiving-themed scented candles, mulling spices, yummy treats, and Thanksgiving-themed seed packets. All of these simple ideas could all make great Thanksgiving party favors.

How To Make Thanksgiving Dinner Favors:

Pop popcorn according to instructions on packaging. Use Kernel Season’s popcorn seasoning to add some flavor.

Cut the tops off the paper lunch bags leaving the bags shorter, around 6-8 inches tall. This makes them easier to fill and keeps the drumstick shape a littler better.

Now, fill the paper bag with the popcorn or some of the other favors I mentioned. If you decide to mix the popcorn with anything else, I suggest putting the trinkets, stickers, or candies in a separate zippered plastic bag within the paper bag for safety reasons.

Cut a bone shape out of white scrapbooking paper. Use a thin layer of glue stick to adhere the opening of bag to paper bone. Allow to dry, then use sticker letters to spell out each guest’s name. Place paper turkey leg on each plate as a place setting. Or keep them to give out at the door before your Thanksgiving guests go home. These Thanksgiving goodie bags couldn’t be more cute!

These Thanksgiving favors are a cinch to make and such a festive addition to Thanksgiving dinner table. Enjoy!
