Flower Pot Turkey

Today I was bored! I called my sister over and told her to bring over the flowerpots she had so we could make turkeys for November. The other day I was looking for fun fall crafts on google images and found several flower pot turkeys.

Steps:

Step 1: Paint flower pot color you want your turkey to be

Step 2: Cut fall scrapbook paper into feathers

Step 4: arrange feathers the way you like and tape together so they won't fall apart

Step 5: Mod podge feathers onto piece of fabric (so that the back of feathers will be white.)

Step 6: When dry, cut out the feathers from fabric leaving a small border

Step 7: Find a square piece of fall fabric for the head and put a grocery bag into the middle and shape your turkey's head. Rubber band head.

Step 8: Arrange feathers and turkey head in your flower pot to your liking

Step 9: Hot glue feathers and head into place

Step 10: Cut the beak and red gobbler out of fabric (or scrapbook paper) and hot glue onto head

Step 11: Use buttons for eyes or googly eyes

Step 12: Find cute ribbon and hot glue around your flower pot

Now you are done with your cute fall turkey!! Easy!

Mod Podge Mail Sorter

If any of you are like me, your mail is a mess. I was at my friend's house this summer and she had 3 magazine boxes with bills/to be filed/and coupons. So I took her idea, and mod podged the outsides to make them my own. Thankyou Beth Larsen for you wonderful idea. She didn't even know that she helped. Needless to say, my mail is no longer a mess. I might do one more for all of my husband's mail..........

Steps:

Step 1: buy magazine boxes or any type of organizer you want

Step 2: cut desired scrapbook paper to fit boxes

Step 3: Mod podge

Step 4: decorate with stickers or ribbon to make it "you"

Easy!
