Let the holiday crafting begin! We, as a family, have so much to be thankful for. I’m excited to share our Thanksgiving crafts with you and hope that you have as much fun creating them as we did!

Craft Number 1:
The Thankful Kernel

Materials

Red, yellow, and orange paint
3 Paint brushes
3 paint containers
Thick white paper ( we like watercolor paper)
Scissors
Pencil

directions

Freehand draw a large corn kernel. Cut out your kernel.

Trace your kernel, as many times as it will fit, onto a single sheet of paper. I like to use heavier paper for painting products. Watercolor paper always seems to hold up the best. Trace as many kernels as needed. ( I messed up the saying on the middle kernel; hence it being scratched out.)

Write the above phrase onto each corn kernel.

Provide your artist with red, orange, and yellow paint.

Clip your paper to an art easel, or place on table with something underneath to protect your table top. It’s time to paint those kernels!

Allow paint to dry.

Cut out each kernel.

Ready to be given to someone special!
