Hello! Janel here from NellieBellie! I’m so honored to be able to bring you one of my favorite little crafts for Thanksgiving as part of the Cornucopia of Creativity series here on Mom Endeavors. We love to make these haystack namecards for our table. They are made from paper tubes and colored twine making them very inexpensive. And, because the only supplies you need are a pair of scissors…anyone can make these! My kids sit and help me whip up a batch of these each year.
