Turkey hands and feet!

I hope everyone had a good thanksgiving!

We made some quick turkey decor for our Thanksgiving meal

Rock's Turkey

Rain's Turkey

My turkey

Here is our decor in full, with the pumpkins we had made for Halloween decor (though i did take down the jack o lanterns we had made as well)... daddy's turkey went missing (I guess his foot wouldn't have fit on the page even if he did make one) .... Rock said it was in the oven and Hubby said it was on the calendar.... You can tell he isn't from a hunting family... he didn't know that was a pheasant not a turkey until I told him. He laughed it off and asked if I was going to tell anyone about it......

“Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,

And into His courts with praise.

Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.

For the LORD is good; His mercy is everlasting,

And His truth endures to all generations.”

Psalm 100:4, 5 (KJV)

Teemo Shirt

I have completed the Teemo shirt I was starting last time I posted about freezer paper. It is much more difficult to use this technique with multiple stencils because freezer paper doesn’t stick as well to already painted shirt (at least not in my experience). I had four stencils since there was so much detail.

And when I started I of course needed to distract a little one who wanted to help….

Note: next time I mix paints I will have to remember to save colors for touch ups in the end. I only have basic colors not eleven tints of yellow and fifty shades of grey ;0 I ended up with a completely different color for the main ‘skin’ color in the end because I couldn’t get it right… uggh

Here is my completed shirt on the recipient of the project…
