Turkey Favors
Here is another fun Thanksgiving craft that your kids are sure to love making- turkey favors from thepartyanimal-blog.org. These cute edible Thanksgiving crafts are even fun for adults:). You just need some yellow, tan or brown tulle, which you can get at a craft store. Cut the tulle into 9 inch squares fill with a handful of M&Ms or Reese’s Pieces. Secure the tulle around the candy using a small rubber band or ribbon. Then use pipe cleaners to make the turkey appendages. Glue on googly eyes and stick piper cleaner into the tulle bags once they are in position.
Pine Cone Fairy Craft
My daughter made this fun pine cone fairy, which I think will be a lovely addition to our table centerpiece. I would give you instructions but since she figured this pine cone craft all out by herself, I bet you will too! (She used embroidery thread hair and construction paper wings.)
