If you are looking for a fun and easy Thanksgiving craft to do with your kids this fall season, this Turkey Flower craft is it.
It’s a great Thanksgiving craft for school class parties, Sunday school classes, home school craft, or a just because it’s Thanksgiving, craft.
These turkey flowers are not only easy but cheap to make, too. You may even have some of the materials on hand, and you can buy most of the material at stores like Dollar Tree or Dollar General.
Or you can buy in bulk from Amazon at a really great deal or Michaels. Because there are so many other things, you can use artificial flowers for when doing crafts. I like to keep them on hand.

Plus, I feel like Thanksgiving gets the least attention of all the holidays this time of year.
I do hope you enjoy making this Thanksgiving craft as much as I did. And check out these recycled or upcycled pumpkin ideas for this fall and Halloween season.
