How to Make a Craft Stick Turkey
Step 1: Gather Your Supplies
Gather your supplies. You’ll need four jumbo sticks, brown paint, construction paper in red, yellow, and brown, googly eyes, scissors, glue, and a paintbrush.
Step 2: Paint the Sticks
Paint all four craft sticks brown and let them dry completely.
Step 3: Cut the Body Parts
Cut out the turkey’s body parts from construction paper.
Step 4: Assemble the Turkey
Glue the painted craft sticks to the back of the round body, fanned out like tail feathers.
Glue the head to the top of the circle. Then attach the eyes, beak, and wattle to the face.
All done!
