Turkey on a Hat
Date Submitted: June 27, 2006

With just a few simple items you can create this fun and friendly turkey on a hat for Thanksgiving. 
Materials:
- Felt (Orange, red, yellow, white and brown)
- Large goggle eyes
- Tan paper twist
- Large straw hat
- Gold glitter paint
- A small piece of wire
Instructions:
Print out your pattern and cut it out. Trace the pattern onto desired colors of felt, or follow the example in the picture and cut out the felt pieces.
Glue the turkeys face onto the hat first so you know where the center is. Then glue the felt feathers on the top of the hat slightly overlaping. Glue the brown bib felt piece over the top of the feathers right around the hat ball part. And lastly, glue the two brown looking hands on each side of the bib shape.
Make a bow out of the paper twist and fluff up. Glue the yellow legs to the back of the hat.
Finishing touches: Using the Gold glitter and glue, add some swirls and dots on the bow and straight lines on the feather. I didn't put any more lines on the felt feathers. I didn't want it to look like leaves.
Last, secure a small piece of wire to the top back of the hat. So you can hang it on the door. About Author
