Give Thanks Banner

As we were putting the Halloween Decorations away and taking out the few Thanksgiving Decorations we have my daughter said, "Let's make some more Thanksgiving decorations!"  So I looked through our craft supplies and found that I had purchased a pack of foam fall leaves.  I cut out the letters on my Silhouette for "Give Thanks" and let her color them anyway she wanted - she choose to do some in crayon and some in marker.  She also decided to add a sparkly jewel to each letter.  We then glued them onto foam leaves.  I found a coloring page turkey by doing a google search and then printed that out for her to color to have a break in the lettering.  Then I punched holes in the foam with my crop-o -dile and my daughter threaded them onto a ribbon.  Then we hung it up - tada!  It took 3 days of her brother's nap time to get this done so it held our interest for quite a bit.
