Give a Cheer
A new Thanksgiving traditional was started this year. I wanted to do this last year but never got around to doing it but with the help of my 9 year old daughter Kaitlyn we finally did it! I read somewhere about this project years ago and this is our "Give Thanks Basket." Basically the basket is where you keep strips of whatever color paper you'd like (I choose red, green and white) and throughout the year you write on a strip of paper something you are thankful for. Then next Thanksgiving you bring out the basket and read what your family has written on them throughout the year. Lastly, you make a chain-link garland out of the written on strips of paper and use for your Christmas decorations on your tree or wherever you'd like.
I used these items to create my Give Thanks Basket (ALL of these items I had in my stash):
basket (just one I had at my house)
leaves (from a Fall garland that had fallen off) - hot glued to the outside of the basket
wooden dowels - for the sign
jute packaging twine - for the sign
Create-a-Critter Cricut cartridge - for the turkey
Sesame Street Seasons Cricut cartridge - for the leaves
Storybook Cricut cartridge - for the font
Studio G glitter glue
Thanks for spreading positivity!
