What's better than apple pie? Preserving your favorite recipes. I think this rolling pin makes a great project for tweens and teens and is a great fall decoration. Plus, it is really easy to make with a little Mod Podge! Made by our craft faves, Cathie-and-Steve!

Easy Thanksgiving Crafts - Pilgrim Hat

 

Those tiny little pots that you can find in the craft store for way less than a dollar can become the perfect surface for minature pilgrim hats. These litte hats can be hung like ornaments or used as place settings on a Thanksgiving day table. However you use them, they are super fun and easy to make!
