Craft Stick Turkey Instructions

Lay down a few pieces of scrap paper or an old newspaper before you get started.
Paint three craft sticks tan and let dry. This step is totally optional, and the craft stick turkeys look great unpainted, too.
Glue your three tan craft sticks together in the shape of a triangle and let dry.
Trace the outside of your triangle onto a piece of brown card stock, cut out and glue to the back of your tan triangle.
Cut out a small triangle from your orange felt and glue to the center of your triangle.
Glue two googly eyes above the orange beak.
Cut a small 3 inch piece of red pipe cleaner, fold it in half making the bottom into a loop and twisting the top and glue the top under the orange triangle.
Then glue five craft feathers to the back of the triangle to make a turkey and let dry.
