Cute Turkey Wreath
The Turkey Wreath is such a delightful and festive decoration that adds a touch of whimsy and warmth to any Thanksgiving celebration. Crafting your own Turkey Wreath can be a fun and creative activity for the whole family to enjoy. Adorned with autumnal colors and adorned with beautiful feathers, this decorative piece will surely be a conversation starter at your holiday gathering. Whether you hang it on your front door to welcome guests or display it indoors as part of your seasonal decor, the Turkey Wreath is a charming and charming addition to any home during the fall season.
Use acrylic paint to paint the wreath form and floral disk.
You’ll need 2 coats on the form, let dry between coats.
When painting the floral disk, make sure you apply the paint heavily so it goes into the pores of the foam, showing less white foam.
Lay 1 piece of fabric onto a flat surface and fold it in half to measure 18″ x 10.5″.
Place a measuring tape across the folded area and use scissors to snip the fabric at 2″ intervals.
Remove the tape measure and continue to trim the rest of the fabric so you have strips.
Repeat for all the pieces of fabric.
Fold a fabric strip in half and place the loop under the form. You’ll be making a slip knot.
Bring the bottom, loose ends of the fabric through the loop, wrapping it around the form. Pull the ends firmly toward the outer edge of the form.
Continue to cover the wreath form with fabric, scrunching each piece together after it’s tied on.
Repeat until you have the desired look of a turkey!
Flip the form over and you’ll have the front of the turkey feathers.
Pull on the ends of the fabric to tighten and position them to your liking.
Use red felt to create a red turkey snood for the face, measuring about 3″ in length.
Use yellow felt to cut out a diamond shape for the beak. When you glue it on you’ll fold it in half to make a 3-D triangle beak.
I used 2 pieces of felt and glued them together to create more dimension.
Glue the eyes, beak, and snood onto the brown disk with hot glue. Attach the disk to the front of the wreath form with hot glue.
