Clip-on Turkeys

Here's a fun and relatively easy Thanksgiving craft project — clip-on turkeys. You can clip them to curtains, or whatever!

What You Need

  • Construction paper
  • Pencil
  • Scissors
  • Yellow pipe cleaners
  • Glue
  • Wiggle eyes

How To Make It

  1. Make a turkey tail by tracing a child's hand, four fingers, no thumb
    (any color paper is fine.)
  2. Then design a body shape to glue over top of this.
  3. Glue wiggle eyes and a wattle; attach colorful feathers on top of the 'fingers' on turkey's back; cut legs out of yellow pipe cleaners
    (tape those on the back, glue won't hold them on.)
  4. When finished, glue a wooden clothespin crosswise on the top.
