Make a "Crazy Turkey Game"

I made this turkey game after seeing it on this blog today

I made my turkey's different colors because I did not have enough dark brown to make more then one turkey. (It was snowing outside also and I did not feel like going anywhere.)  I used buttons on the eyes, and did a blanket stitch around the turkeys with brown thread (with my sewing machine).  Other then that I did what the tutorial said.

It is an easy came like candy land with colors.

Non eatable Thanksgiving Turkey

I made this Turkey with my friends a few weeks ago.

We drew a pattern on paper then traced the pattern onto some scrap piece of pressed wood.  I held the wood steady while my friend cut the wood.  I was afraid to fun the saw.

Then we spray painted all of our turkey feathers and body.  Then we cut out paper and mode podged it to the feathers.  I added a antique gel to the feathers.  Add the accessories after it is dried and glued together.

The May Flower

I saw a ship like this in a Kids Pottery Barn Catalog and thought it was fun for Thanksgiving, but I was not about to pay the $30 sum dollars for it!  So I made my own! 

 In the picture they filled there May Flower with gourds and pumpkins.  I had a few form my garden but it took to many to fill.  So I filled my ship with floral foam and flowers I had bought for another project.  The sails are held up with odds and ends sticks, dowels, even the twisty thing for my blinds!  It was a fun table piece!   My husband made wanted me to it leave it at my Mom's because she had more room to "store it".  It was on the large side.

Turkey Cookies?

I found these turkeys in the Family Fun mag. a long time ago.  We decided to try them last year for Thanksgiving

My little turkey helper.

I learned:

Must use double stuff Oreo s or Off brand (the candy corns will not fit other wise, and you have broken cookies to snack on.)
Use honey to stick candy on then you can't see the frosting mess!
Also I saw Our Best Bites did these turkey with a Reeses Peanutbutter Cup as the body and then used the wopper as the head. 
When it comes right down to it the kids scarf them up so fast it does not matter what they look like!
