Artsy Thanksgiving Banner Craft

Thanksgiving is almost here! Are you looking for an easy, last-minute Thanksgiving Craft that you can do with the kids? I don't know about you, but my life currently feels like it's moving at 100 miles per hour. This year Thanksgiving kind of popped up unexpectantly and I only had time to make this "Thanks" banner with my boys. I love the way this project turned out, so I thought I'd share the process here!

Artsy "Thanks" Banner for Thanksgiving

1.  First, I cut out the letters T, H, A, N, K, and S.

2. Then, I gave each boy two letters and asked them to draw something they were thankful for on each letter.

We used crayons and Sharpies first...

And then we painted with watercolors.

(It's neat to see how we all took different creative routes...)

3. Once everything dried, I taped the letters to some yarn.

Voila! Instant banner and Thanksgiving decor!

I really enjoyed this easy art project. The activity gave us a blank space to unleash our creativity and an opportunity to share with each other.


Happy Thanksgiving, friends!

I'm thankful for all your support and hope that you have a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with friendship, family, and food!
