Thanksgiving Turkey Crafts

It's fun to use God's nature in our art and craft projects.  Take a nice autumn hike in the woods and let the kids scavenge around for some pinecones to make this simple craft.

You'll need:

Pinecones

Elmer's Glue

Googly eyes

Construction Paper 

or

Pipe Cleaners

1) Laying the pinecone on its side, insert the feathers into the back.  Cut construction paper pieces into the shape of feathers and glue into the pinecone.

or

Bend a pipe cleaner into a loop and glue into the pinecone.

2) Glue on the eyes and beak.

Decorate your windowsills, table or use them as place cards for your Thanksgiving table.  Just slip the name card in front of the 'feathers', into the pinecone.
