[Nfb-krafters-korner] Turnabout craft for Jill

[Ericka Short]

What a interesting story Terry.  I'd never heard of a funeral home doing 
something like that.  Very thoughtful.

I haven't done handprints since I was little either.  I remember making a 
turkey out of construction paper .  We traced our hand then cut it out.  An 
eye was drawn on the thumb and a beak, gobbler were glued on made of 
construction paper or felt.  Feathers where glued to the  spots where the 
fingers were.  Voilà!  One turkey for anyone's table, fridge or placemat and 
tactile too.  The '70's were a grand time; we made them in the regular 
public school class!  This was before those glue sticks so we probably used 
rubber cement.  Ah, gotta love the smell and it's so fun to peel off the 
hands!  If it moisturized I'd buy some right now.

Kids are still doing that.  My nephew just made one in 1st grade.
