I have the perfect accessory for your Thanksgiving kids’ table today. My DIY bottle cap turkey napkin rings craft is sure to be the hit of the meal. Your kids can even help make them! Plus they are made out of bottle caps and paper towel rolls so they are also the ultimate recycled craft. Make these cute little turkeys today. You can also have your little ones make pinecone turkeys to go along with them.
The short video below will show you how to make the napkin rings as well as how to make a turkey mason jar favor for your Thanksgiving table. Carolina from 30 Minute Crafts is showing you the mason jar turkey craft.

A perfectly silly craft to keep the kids entertained this Thanksgiving. Decorating the kids’ table is one of my personal favorites! Grab your supplies and make your DIY bottle cap turkey napkin rings.
Put the kids in charge of making this turkey napkins ring craft while you prepare for the big day. You can definitely use a child-friendly glue instead of the hot glue but you will need to allow for a bit more dry time. Otherwise, use the same supplies and let them have fun!
