Puppet Theater
Re-inacting the first Thanksgiving just got a whole lot easier thanks to our finger puppets. Our free, downloadable characters are available here but just remember it's totally BYOB.

Thankful Jar
Grab an empty vase, a bunch of pens and pencils and print out our decorative notes. Have your guests fill out what they are thankful for before the big meal (strategically place near the drinks so there are no excuses). After every one is sufficiently stuffed, read them aloud. A sweet and memorable tradition that everyone will look forward to every year.

Flower Power
A pile of felt (even those wool sweater you accidentally washed will work!), scissors and a few snips later, you have a new set of napkin rings for Thanksgiving courtesy of the 10 and under crowd. Check out the pattern online here but freehand is best as each flower ends up as it's own unique creation.
Personalized Cup
There are a lot of people at Thanksgiving and with that, a lot of cups and lost drinks. Stop the waste by simply wrapping some washi tape around the glasses and write the names of each sipper without ruining your glassware.
Memories...
Craft additional memories with our free, downloadable Thanksgiving-themed game. Acorns, pumpkins and squash all come together for hours of fun.

Bountiful Display
The best kind of DIY? When you take something familiar and turn it into something new. Sugar cones get new life as individual cornucopias, spilling out candy pumpkins and candy corn. A little warm water allows you to bend the end into place. Dry standing up or if you are impatient, dry it with a hairdryer.
No-Glue Feather Wreath
A grapevine wreath is the perfect base for Thanksgiving wreaths. Procure feathers from a craft store and simply slide in between the vines for a gorgeous display that will have everyone ohhhhing and ahhhing. No glue or craft-talented required.
Placemat Pictures
The kid's table often gets overlooked but no longer. Our free, downloadable placemats are coloring pages so each child can pick their favorite and color away. Not much is better than family and friends eating around works of art.

Instant Centerpieces
What's great about this centerpiece is that it uses everything you already have like toys and natural elements. Grab those leftover floral-delivery vases, and send the kids out into the yard as part of a scavenger hunt. Once they return, have them design and style mini-terrariums for the Thanksgiving table, using all the toys that you have handy. Indiana Jones was never so thankful.
