Dark Brown Felt for back
Light Brown Felt for body
Orange or Yellow Felt for beak
Various colored felt for feathers
Lightweight cardboard
4mm wiggle eyes
Cut one 2" circle and one 3" circle from Dark Brown felt.
Cut one 2" circle from lightweight cardboard (mine is from a tissue box)
Cut one 'peanut shape' from light brown felt. Mine is about 1 3/4" tall. I just drew it freehand.
Cut out lots of various colored feathers. Again, just freehand it. Mine are probably 1" long, or so.
Glue the cardboard circle to the center of the 3" dark brown felt. Turn over the edges and glue down. Glue the 2" dark brown circle to the back. This is your Turkey foundation. For more detailed pictures check out yesterday's Sunflower Tutorial.
Gobble. Gobble. Gobble.
And if you've got some leftover feathers, let your 8 yo daughter make some flowers for her hair.
