Additional Materials: Cricut machine, Cricut Design Space and the pinecone turkey project I've designed. go straight to Design Space to make this Pinecone Turkey craft, I have the canvas set up and waiting for you!

Or setup the project canvas on your own, here's how:

1. Insert the turkey image (#M8D1E4D) onto your Design Space canvas.
2. Choose which feather you'd like to use (or use both).
3. I used this cutting file to make a Print-then-Cut image. You can cut standard paper instead if you'd like.
4. To make the print-then-cut image, choose a color for the feather, hide the drawing/writing line, flatten the feather detail shape and feather piece together to create a printed shape. Repeat for all the different feather colors you'd like to use.
5. I made 5 larger feathers and 4 smaller feathers for this project. Follow the steps below to assemble the turkey.

Make a pinecone turkey with a printable coloring page

Grab the printable template below

1. Lay the pinecone on it's side and roll the pinecone a bit on the table to help decide which side is the most stable for it to rest on.
2. Cut out the turkey pieces: head and feathers. If you're using the printable, color your feathers before you cut them out, it makes coloring a little easier.
3. Add a bit of glue to the base of the turkey neck. Place turkey head in between the pinecone scales.
4. Add a little bit of glue to the end of a feather and place the feather in the pinecone. Repeat until you haved attached all the feathers. Allow to dry.
