Materials:
- wood discs (you can size these based on how big you want your pins to be)
- hot glue gun
- scissors
- felt, in yellow, orange, and red
- pin back
- chalkboard paint
- brush
Instructions:
Step 1: Paint your discs with the chalkboard paint. You will need at least two coats, and up to one hour of drying time for each coat.
Step 2: Cut out feather shapes from the felt. If you need a guide, draw the feathers onto the felt before cutting them out. Or, just cut out a long almond shape and then cut fringes. I made 7 feathers per pin to get the full “turkey” effect.
Step 3: Glue the feathers on to the pin in whatever colors order you like.
Step 4: Glue on the pin back and let it dry completely
Step 5: It should look a little like this when it’s finished! You will want to let the chalkboard paint cure for a day and then treat it before using it. Enjoy your pins and happy Turkey Day!
