Nesi's Thanksgiving Turkey Project

Nesi came home last week with a Turkey Outline
with directions to fill it in with anything we wanted
just no coloring. We could use yarn, wood shavings,
etc. We had pink yarn, Nesi said no pink Turkeys,
we didn't have wood shavings.

So I pulled out my craft bins to see what we had left
in there. we had 4 yards of black and cream burlap
that I was saving to do a cultural dance outfit for the
girls with. So we cut out [2] 2 inch strips from each
color lengthwise and then cut them in half a again and
down to small 1 inch or 1.5 inches, used craft glue
to hold it down and rhinestones from the dollar store.

I didn't take step by step pics. So here is what we got
in the end.


The colorful areas are yellow, red and green,
crepe streamers that we created into ruffled
sections then used Elmer's School Glue to
hold it down with. We then used Martha 
Stewart Crafts® Eyelet Lace Punch Around
The Page Set for the brown background.
