Thanksgiving Placemat

   I made nice placemats for decoration for Thanksgiving. It's takes quite a bit of time. I made one in 45 minutes. 

              MATERIALS
       -2 pieces of brown paper
       -orange paper
       -green paper
       -yellow paper
       -red paper
       -scissors (or cutting board)
       -tape



   Step 1) cut out the brown paper into 11     strips. (Use a cutting board if possible)
   Step 2) do the same to each colored paper but cut them the taller way (only 3 orange, 3 yellow, 3 red, 2 green)
   Step 3) tape brown strips onto brown paper
   Step 4) weave colored strips through brown strips that are taped down.
   Step 5) tape the strips once done
   Step 6) repeat steps 4 and 5 until you have used up all your strips!

Turkey Place Cards

     These cute turkey place cards make a great decoration at your Thanksgiving dinner table! 
   You can make these by scratch or buy the kit! I got a kit for these at target. Buying the kit is much easier because you don't have to glue them or cut out the shapes. Also it comes with everything you need! 
  Have a great Thanksgiving and put these cards out on the table before you eat! :)

DIY Leaf Roses

Hi guys! Our troop recently had a progressive dinner, and as a decoration, we all made leaf roses. They were really fun to make! Click here to learn how to make them! They may take a few tries, but you'll get it eventually! The instructions call for florist's tape, but we used masking tape and they turned out fine. This would be a great craft to put out on Thanksgiving! Have fun crafting!
