Turkey Day Table Centerpiece

from Parents Magazine
What You'll Need
Thanksgiving Dinner Table

  • 16" to 18" sticks
  • Acrylic paint
  • Paper grocery bags
  • White paper
  • Glue
  • Colored pencils
  • Tall drinking glasses
  • Beans
  • Lentils or split peas

Make It

1. Paint sticks different colors and let dry.

2. Cut 5" circles from grocery bags and cut 3-1/2" circles from white paper. Mount white circles on top of brown ones with glue and let dry. Write letters on each of the white circles to write a Thanksgiving sentiment (we spelled out "Give Thanks").

3. Glue each circle to a painted stick and anchor in a glass full of beans, lentils, or split peas. Display down the center of your dining table or along a buffet.
