Make a Turkey Magnet Note Holder

This adorable turkey note holder can hang from your front door. Whether he is saying "Welcome," "What's for Dinner?," or "Get Me Outta' Here," everyone will think he’s adorable!

What you'll need:

  • Hot glue gun
  • Miniature orange foam triangle
  • 9 feathers in fall colors
  • 2 jumbo craft sticks
  • Brown acrylic craft paint
  • Small wooden clothespin
  • Paintbrush
  • Small straw hat, cut in half
  • Scissors
  • Small red foam heart
  • 2 yellow foam chick feet
  • 2 small wiggle eyes
  • White craft glue

How to make it:

  1. Paint both craft sticks and clothespin with brown paint, set aside to dry. Paint a second coat on the craft sticks, but not the clothespin.
  2. Glue feathers in a fan behind one of the craft sticks. Sandwich the second craft stick behind the feathers.
  3. Glue the straw hat half to the top of the craft stick.
  4. Glue two wiggle eyes under the hat.
  5. Glue red heart upside down for waddle. Glue the orange triangle upside down at the top of the waddle.
  6. Glue the yellow duck feet to the bottom of the craft stick, pointing upward.
  7. Glue the clothespin to the front of the craft stick, pointing downward.
     

Tips:

  • To hang on the fridge, attach two round magnets to the back of the turkey.
  • To hang on a door, attach a piece of ribbon or yarn to the back of the turkey.  
  • Save the other half of your straw hat for another project.
