Cute and Quick Last-Minute Thanksgiving Projects

Wow, Thanksgiving is next week already! I can’t be the only one who completely forgot, can I? If you, too, have been in denial about the passage of time you may be wondering if you can still make something cute to display on the table and have it done by next Thursday. Well, of course you can, if you pick something simple!

Pom Pom Turkey

The Pom Pom Turkey is a super quick and easy little decoration — all it takes is a pack of Bonbons®, a pom pom maker, and some other small craft supplies. You could probably make several of them for all over your table!

Quick Wreaths and Other Thanksgiving Treats

You may also want to try your hand at a couple of quick wreaths. No knitting or crochet skills required! These would be a great way to include kids who are at home on a school break in the decorating activities. They’ll especially love the colorful feathers used to make the turkey’s tail in the Turkey Wreath below!

Of course, if you’re a speedy enough crocheter, you might be able to make a few quick amigurumi decorations. They would certainly look cute on the dinner table, and around the house where guests will be mingling. The great thing about the apple and pumpkin decorations is that they’re useful at other occasions, too! In fact, you could have them in your house all through autumn.
