These cute little turkeys make great party favors. Try adding a few different colors of tulle for a rainbow of feathers.
Difficulty level: Intermediate
Time required: 1 hour
Age range: 8+
Things you’ll need:
Tulle
Pipe cleaner
Googly eyes
Reeces pieces
Things to do:
1. Cut a piece of tulle about 12 inches long and fold it in half.
2. Place a small handful of candy in the center of the tulle.
3. Cut a piece of pipe cleaner about an inch long.
4. Bunch the tulle with the candy in the middle and secure closed with the pipe cleaner. Fluff up the ends of the tulle and turn the bunch of candy slightly on its side so the ends of the tulle stick up in the back.

6. Stick the legs into the bottom of the turkey.
7. Cut a light brown piece of pipe cleaner a few inches long and fold the end over to create a head.
8. Cut a small piece of orange pipe cleaner and wrap it around the base of the “head” to create a beak.
9. Cut a small piece of red pipe cleaner and wrap it around the base of the head/beak with an end hanging down.
10. Glue the eyes to the head, one eye on either side of the beak.
11. Stick the head into the top of the turkey.
