Turkey Boxes for Silhouette Cameo

My son wanted to have a fun craft for after school yesterday. I thought what better than a Thanksgiving related craft! I looked online for some ideas, then ended up creating my own turkey box. They just needed googly eyes to make them complete. 👀

I used basic construction paper for these gobblers. Next time I'd use cardstock or something that would hold up better for at least the box.

Cheap googly eyes: Eyes

To cut out each colored piece in Silhouette:

Select the same colored images (hold down ctrl, then click on each of the same colored images)
Open a new workbook and paste them in
Cut out the image
Rinse and repeat for the other colors!

Enjoy!!!

Cruise Ship Lego Kits

Dusted off this old blog to share something fun! Here’s the full parts list, instructions, and templates for the LEGO kits we put together as Fish Extender gifts on our Disney Cruise. I know lots of people have made versions of these before, but when I went to create ours, I couldn’t find a clear parts list or ready-to-go templates anywhere—so I made my own! Hopefully, this makes it easier for anyone else looking to do the same. Cruise Ship Instructions
