  • Go ahead and decorate the fingertips {and the palm} with a few lines of glue and loose craft glitter shaken on top.
  • Shake off excess glitter.
  • Now glue the decorated “feather” piece to the center of a piece of white cardstock paper.
  • Follow that up by gluing the cupcake liner {un-flattened} to the center of the decorated handprint design.
  • Next add your children’s trimmed down photo, to the center of the liner.
  • Finally, draw on stick legs under the handprint to look like turkey legs.
  • Add any other embellishments you see fit and allow it to dry completely before displaying it proudly for all to see.
