Our nature shelf runneth over. It seems my little guy is as much a scavenger and collector as his mama. Every walk through the forest or along the seashore results in us coming home with our pockets full of treasures. We have baskets of pinecones, bowls filled with seashells, jars filled to the brim with acorn tops, chestnuts and feathers. I love that Logan has this simple enjoyment except for one small problem...were running out of room! So now I am on the hunt for clever nature crafts and thought autumn inspired themes may be a good place to start.
Here's our first craft of the season, just in time for Thanksgiving. Crazy little pinecone turkeys, complete with feathered tails, googley eyes and dressed in their Sunday best.
You just know these two are waiting to gossip to each other once the service is over.
I did the glue gunning and Logan carefully picked out each feather and placed it just right for the turkeys tails. He glued on the clothes and arranged the beaks and eyes on the faces. I love how each one has it's own personality.
