The Turkey

How to Make a Turkey for Thanksgiving DIY Holiday Decor- Thanksgiving TurkeyDIY Holiday Decor- Styrofoam TurkeyThanksgiving is one day away and I thought would't it be nice to have a turkey decoration, so I decided to make one. I made it for decoration, however, my nephew liked it and I gave it to him as a toy. I definitely think this project is kids friendly, plus its really fun and easy to make. Materials that will be needed is scissors, hot glue gun, foam paper, toothpick, eyes, two styrofoam balls of different sizes, and brown spray paint. If you don't have spray paint you can substitute it for brown paint. First, you will want to stick the toothpick into the middle of both styrofoam balls. Spray paint both of the styrofoam balls and let it dry. While you wait till it is dry you can start cutting out the tail of the turkey. Used different colors of foam paper to create colorful tail fan for your turkey. Trace your finger onto the foam paper and cut it out. Once you think you have enough feathers glue them all together. Use a orange foam paper to cut out a triangle for the nose and two irregular flowers for the feet. Use red foam paper to create a small hammer, which will be used for the wattle of the turkey. Once you have all the parts glue them to the styrofoam balls to create a your turkey. I hope you guys enjoy this project!! :)
