With a few simple steps, you too can recreate these TURKEY friends with ease! It’s just a matter of “wrapping” the lollipop and adding some embellishments to bring them to life!

Here is what you need for your turkey Lollipops:

• Pre-Wrapped Lollipops – one per turkey lollipop {we used Tootsie Roll Pops – affiliate link}
• Gold Tissue Paper {affiliate link}
• Red Cardstock Paper
• Orange Cardstock Paper
• Decorative Plastic Leaves – two or three per turkey lollipop {affiliate link}
• Basic Craft Scissors
• Twine or Ribbon – one long piece per turkey lollipop
• Small Wiggles Eyes – one per turkey lollipop {affiliate links}
• TONS of Glue Dots {affiliate link}

The simple directions to follow:

Simply cut out a square of tissue paper for EACH lollipop you are making. Place your lollipop in the center of the square, fold up/bunch the tissue paper around the lollipop {to cover it} and tie it off with a piece of twine or ribbon to secure. Repeat for each party favor you are making.

Next is the cardstock. Cut out a beak/wattle for each turkey. Use glue dots to secure them to the lollipop/tissue paper. Go ahead and add on the wiggle eyes as well!

The final touch is the plastic leaves aka – the feathers! Use your glue dots to secure them to the lollipop/tissue paper.

And just like that – you have some AWESOME turkey-themed party favors to hand out on Thanksgiving!!!
