Pilgrim Boy Favor Tin

I wanted to get this project up last week, but life happened and it got pushed aside.  But, I wanted really wanted to get it up before Thanksgiving.  There might be a few last minute crafters (like me) that can make these this year.  If not, Thanksgiving will come again next year and you can use it then!

I’ve made a couple of these favors tins in the past and I think they are so cute.  I wanted to add a few more for Thanksgiving.  These are perfect to use at a table or to give away to friends and family.

Here is what you’ll need:
Cardstock (I used black, brown, white, tan, and goldenrod)

Googly Eyes

Foam Sticky Tabs

Favor Tins (I got mine at Michaels in the wedding section)

Glue

Distress Ink (optional)

Here is what you’ll do:

First, you’ll need to cut out the pieces and, if desired, distress with ink. I used my digital cutter, but most of the shapes are pretty simple and can be cut by hand.

Next, glue the pieces onto the black body in this order.
Hands
Sleeve Cuffs
Collar
Face
Hair
Hat Top
Hat Band
Hat Buckle
Hat Brim

Attach the feet to the circle with foam sticky tabs.  Glue on the googly eyes and glue the back of the favor tin to the body. Attach the circle with feet onto the lid of the favor tin with foam tabs.  Add a mouth, if desired.  Fill with some yummy treats.

So cute!

I hope you all have a happy Thanksgiving.

I’ll be sharing the free digital cut file today for both the pilgrim girl and boy! Come back later and grab them both.

DIY Stenciled Dish Towel

Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away. Oh, this year is going by so fast.  With the holidays coming, there is always so much more cooking and baking going on.  I know the more time I spend in the kitchen, the more dish towels I use. Here is a fun project to dress up those plain dish towels and make them a little more festive for this holiday season. 

To make these towels you will need:

Dish Towels

Vinyl Stencil

Paint & Paintbrush

Mod Podge (Optional)

Start by applying the vinyl stencil to your towel. The towel I used was textured, so to help stop paint from bleeding through the stencil, I first applied a coat of Mod Podge.

After the Mod Podge dries, carefully paint all of the words.

Carefully remove the vinyl stencil. I wanted the “BE” to stand out a little more, so I cut out the stencil and peeled away the B and E instead of the frame. Then, I placed it on the towel and painted the letters brown.

Now, I have a cute dish towel that is perfect for Thanksgiving. 

Come back later for the free digital file to create your own!
