Turkey Place-cards
Supplies Needed:
- Brown Cardstock (2)
- Red Cardstock
- Yellow (or Orange) Cardstock
- Patterned Paper
- Googly Eyes
- Glue
- Templates
Step 1: Fold each patterned sheet of paper in half and glue. (This forms double-sided patterned paper.)
Step 2: Trace Feather Pattern. You need 5 per turkey. You can fit 2 feathers on each folded and glued piece of patterned paper.
Step 3: Fold the Yellow (or Orange) piece of cardstock in half. Trace the foot template (or draw your own foot) and cut out (2-together). On the folded edge of the paper, cut a beak.
Step 4: Trace Turkey's head on the small brown piece of cardstock andthe gobble on the red piece of cardstock.
Step 5: Roll the larger piece of brown cardstock to form a tube. (Fold from the 3-inch side of the cardstock.) When you glue the tube, you will leave an inch or so of the brown cardstock extended for balance (see pictures).
Step 6: Glue the eyes, gobble, and beak on the turkey head.
Step 7: Glue the feathers, feet, and head on the tube to form the turkey.
Step 8: Write a person's name on a strip of white cardstock (center the name). Then hold it up to the front of the turkey and tuck the ends inside the tube.
