A Thanksgiving Decoration Idea

Turn a Pumpkin into a Turkey!

This Thanksgiving decoration idea came from my creative sister-in-law! It is fun, easy and so clever.. turn a pumpkin into a turkey! It's the cutest Thanksgiving decoration idea ever!

My sister-in-law found the cutest kit in a small local gift store that allowed her to turn a pumpkin into a festive Thanksgiving turkey decoration. It would make a pretty Thanksgiving centerpiece or can be used to decorate your front steps or anywhere in your house. The kit she found allowed her to simply poke the various parts into a pumpkin and presto.. she created a Thanksgiving turkey decoration.

Here are some similar kits that you can buy online to make this thanksgiving decoration for your own celebration.

Terry's Village has this exclusive and adorable metal Pumpkin poke-in set that will turn your Halloween pumpkin into a Thanksgiving Turkey! It got great customer reviews..the only caution is that they are sharp.. so not a kid's project. Just click the link below to Terry's Village and search "pumpkin poke-ins" and you will find it. Very reasonably priced too! Order early so you have in time for Thanksgiving! I love how mine turned out!

And here is mine sitting outside my porch door. He will come in and adorn our Thanksgiving table in a week or so!

If you are looking to use this idea with the kids for Thanksgiving, Amazon offers this inexpensive kit that will let you decorate your pumpkins with these TURKEY PARTS to create a fun Thanksgiving turkey centerpiece. Wouldn't these be so easy and fun for a Girl Scout or kid's craft project? The kids could make them as Thanksgiving crafts and gift them in early November?

One of the things I like best about this idea is that you can re-use the metal pumpkin pokes each year. Just pull them out of the pumpkin after Thanksgiving, wash and pack away til next year! More Fun Thanksgiving Ideas here!
