Simple Turkey Craft
What You Will Need to Make a Cup Turkey
- Plastic cup (orange, blue, red, or brown make good colors)
- Yellow paper
- Real feathers
- Large googly eyes
- Glue stick
- Scissors
Turn the cup upside down.
Cut out two feet and a beak for the turkey from yellow paper. We didn’t use orange in this case because our turkey’s body was orange, but if you use other colors of paper you can use orange for the beak and feet.
Cut out a small waddle from red paper.
Turkey craft
To make this cute turkey craft, start by using glue to affix the beak, feet, and waddle to the orange cup turkey body.
Easy Turkey Craft
Glue the feathers to the back of the cup and the googly eyes to the front. You may need to trim the feathers a bit to make them fit better against the back of the cup. It will depend on the size of your feathers and cup.
Wait for the glue to dry before playing with or displaying the turkey. If you’re in a hurry, you can use hot glue for faster drying time.
