What you need to Make a Clothespin Turkey:
- Clothespins
- Googly Eyes
- Hot Glue Gun
- Hot Glue Sticks
- Cardboard
- Colorful Card-stock paper
- Scissors
How To Make The Clothespins Turkey:
I have colorful star clothespins; if you do not have colorful clothespins you can color them with acrylic paint because it dries brighter.
To make a clothespin turkey, cut out two circles, one bigger than the other out of cardboard. Hot glued these two circles together. Add a turkey face using googly eyes
Lastly, cut out a yellow beak, yellow paw and red waddle from your yellow and red card-stock paper. Now paste beak, paw and waddle on circles.
Now your clothespins turkey craft is complete, ready to crawl around your table and eat everything in sight. Have fun!
Happy Thanksgiving Day!
