Paper Twist Pilgrim Man

If he could speak, I believe he'd say, "You made the TURKEY before you made me?!?!" And, it's true, I did. I have to admit, the Pilgrim man was last on my list of paper twist characters. I consider myself an equal opportunity crafter....but, in this case, the pilgrim woman and the turkey provided so much more "scope for the imagination" as Anne Shirley would say (I'm in the midst of an Anne of Green Gables marathon as we speak). 

 Wanna see the Pilgrim Woman??

Or the Thanksgiving Turkey??

I have been so busy crafting recently. I made up my mind to try renting a table at the next local craft show (which happens to be this weekend!! Yikes!!). You'll see more of what I have been up to soon, I promise!! What have y'all been up to??

Paper Twist Thanksgiving Craft

You know, I love Thanksgiving. I love the thought behind it, the gathering of friends and family, the delicious food, and the leftovers. But (you knew that was coming, right?), I'm not too hot on decorating for Thanksgiving. I just don't have the best ideas or the inspiration that I feel for other holidays. 

Recently, I was gifted with a horde or crafting leftovers (Thanks, Linda!!) , which included a large supply paper twist. I've never used it before, but I love the look of it. I was also gifted some paper twist doll making books...yay!! This pilgrim-ish doll above is my first attempt. Not too bad, if I do say so myself!! 

Yup, I think I'll be doing plenty more of this!!
