Thankful Thursday with Happiness Surrounds

Thanksgiving Turkey Napkin Ring Tutorial



It's turkey time!  And what could be more fun than making a festive turkey decoration for your table?  I had to step away from the product of the week for a short moment because this little guy was lingering in my mind and just had to be released from my imagination.  He is super easy to make!  Hope you enjoy the tutorial today!  

Thankful Thursday

Happy Thanksgiving to you all.  Today we will be spending time with some of Matt's family in Myrtle Beach.  But every year we are invited to several homes in the Raleigh area of many friends we have.  I am so thankful for all the kindness, friendship, and generosity of our community.  I hope everyone has a safe and relaxing holiday filled with joy and love.  And I hope for those who do not have family or loved ones near that they find warmth, kindness, generosity, and friendship.
