The other day we decided to do a strictly craft day. I saw this neat thing on my dear old friend Pinterest about making your own light up sign. Instead of running to the store I knew I had some tools to accomplish this turkey Give Thanks light up sign. Not exactly my neatest craft I have done but that is what makes it so special. The turkeys are made out of Olivia's hands and she even helped paint the background of the canvas.
Instead of doing traditional brown for the turkeys, I decided to spruce things up a bit. Olivia picked out the purple sparkle construction foam paper and I couldn't protest! Who doesn't need some extra glitter in their lives?!
Definitely her favorite part of the craft. Gluing on the feathers to the turkeys. I love it! Makes it so unique and all about her creative mind.
I added the finished touches and wa-la! Turkeys!
After we painted the sign and added some of our own touches to it, it was time to add the lights. Seriously so simple! Get some mini lights that don't have an end plug. Poke small holes in the back and then weave the lights through. Easy!
Here is our finished Give Thanks Turkey Light Up Sign!!! Easy, creative, and kept our sick butts busy. Oh, and FESTIVE!
