Kid's Thanksgiving Crafts Turkey Gloves


Pair of knit gloves (brown, orange or other fall color)
Felt - yellow, orange, white, black, goldenrod, tan, red, and brown
Washable fabric glue or hot glue
scissors
plastic wrap


Stuff fingers and palm of glove with plastic wrap. This will keep the gloves from sticking to themselves during the gluing process.
From goldenrod felt, cut out 2 oval shapes for the turkey's head, about 2" high and 1.5" wide.
From red, yellow, brown, and tan felt, cut out 3" long strips. Cut points at the end.
Cut 2 small triangles from the orange felt, about ¾" inch in size.
From red felt, cut 2 elongated heart shapes about 1.5" long.
From white felt, cut two 1" ovals, and from the black felt cut 4 small ovals for the eyes.
Lay all the pieces out on the glove first, following our photo as a guide. Once you have them in place, glue in place in the following order:
First, glue the strips in place for the feathers.
Next, glue the "head" on, then the red "gobbler" (heart shape).
Now glue the white and black pieces on for the eyes.
Finish the face with the orange "beak".
Allow glue to dry completely.
Remove all plastic wrap from the gloves.
