Thanksgiving Place Settings- 2×2 Wood Turkey and Pumpkin

I know that it’s a little late for Thanksgiving posts, but I just made these last night and I couldn’t not share them! Plus who doesn’t love super cute place settings that are perfect for your Thanksgiving table :).

Since we are hosting Thanksgiving this year, I wanted to make some fun place cards for everyone. I also wanted them to be a decoration since I wasn’t planning on having a center piece or anything. So this is what I came up with, a little turkey and pumpkin! This would be a perfect kids craft because they are so easy to make the kids can make them!

This is how I made the turkey:

I took some popsicle sticks and covered them with fun washi tape.

Then I cut a 2×2 to 3 1/2” and spray painted it brown. I glued the sticks and then used a staple gun to secure them onto the back of the wood.

With vinyl I cut out with my silhouette, I decorated to turn it into a turkey. Then I wrote the name on the feathers. Here are the cut files:

We will have 11 kids, so I made each one of them a turkey. I wrote each letter of their names onto the Popsicle sticks. They make adorable place settings!

And here it looks on the table! Aren’t they so much fun?!

I wanted to do something different for the adults, so I made some little pumpkins for them. I made the stem out of card stock covered with washi tape. Wrapped wire and raffia around it and then attached a tag with the names on them so they could be place settings too.
