For a fun, family activity during Thanksgiving or any holiday get-together, this is the perfect way to pass the time. Add a whimsical touch to your holiday decor or make great seasonal, homemade gifts! The best part is? You don’t have to be an expert crafter to make them! Make decorating, gift giving, and family time even more fun this year by trying out these easy, DIY fall inspired crafts.
