For the Little Turkeys

Nov 19th, 2010

Drat. Just when I thought my only obligation was to bring a pie (thank you, Village Inn) and some wine to Thanksgiving dinner, my mom assigned me the task of decorating the kid’s table.  It’s time for mama to get crafty…luckily little turkeys are easy to please.

A little inspiration from Fiskars.

I love the pilgrim hat crayon holder and the turkey leg. The turkey clip is cute but I don’t think I will be getting that detail oriented.


My centerpiece.

Who doesn’t love a Popcorn Turkey.


The Turkey Tutorial from One Charming Party


Chalkboard placemats from Flamingo Toes.

These are awesome and not only for Thanksgiving. What a great way to calm the fidgeting before mealtime.


But how much simpler would it be to just draw a ‘placemat’ on the table. The common theme for all the tables has been the butcher paper table ‘cloth’.  I see an easy clean-up in my future.


My kid’s table will in no way resemble this alfresco heaven but I still had to share. Maybe I’ll try it next Thanksgiving…
