Ill never forget a little pineconeturkey craftI made in the second grade.
I named mine Elliot and saved him for years, and I evenadded to his house regularly.
He had a bed, chair, and all sorts of items in his kleenex box house .
I believe he even had a picture of family members I made on the wall.
I guess its not a big surprise that over 30 years later Im a craft blogger!
Its fun to collect the pinecones and then choose the feather colors .
then put it all together using items you have in your pantry.
I love that you could make a glue with sugar and use it in kids crafts!
Heres how to do it.

You may need to hold the feathers for a few minutes to allow the glue to dry.
Cut out a small triangle out of the orange foam or paper for the turkey gizzard.
