Decorating your dollhouse for Thanksgiving day is great, and a miniature thanksgiving day dinner looks great on your dollhouse table. Making Thanksgiving Day dinner out of polymer clay is easy and fun, and this article will provide you with three easy ideas for making a miniature Thanksgiving Day dinner feast for your dollhouse.

Make a bowl of mashed potatoes out of polymer clay to add to your Thanksgiving Day dinner by using white clay, yellow clay, and some natural colored clay for a bowl. Start by making a bowl out of a medium ball. To make a ball pinch a hole into a ball of clay and pinch the edges until the bowl widens. Bake this bowl with a round ball of tinfoil inside of it.

When it is cool add the white clay to make mashed potatoes and use a popsicle stick to make it look real. Next mix some yellow with some white and cut it into a square of butter. Add this to the clay potatoes, and bake again until hard. This miniature dollhouse item is perfect for your dollhouse Thanksgiving Day dinner meal.

Another fun addition to any miniature dollhouse Thanksgiving Day dinner is stuffing, and it can be easily made from polymer clay. For this project you will need a piece of tin foil, brown clay, white clay, and green clay. Mix some brown and white clay together to make beige, and mix some white and green together to make a light green. Roll the green into a tube and cut into small pieces.

To make this miniature dollhouse Thanksgiving Day dinner meal rip apart many small pieces of the brown, white, and beige clay and mix together lightly. Rib the clay apart again into small pieces, and this will help if the clay is cold and hard. Next press the pieces back together while sprinkling the green pieces into the mix. Fold the tinfoil into a tray by folding the edges of a rectangle in several times. Rip the clay apart one more time and press it back into the tinfoil pan. You want a rough edge and texture so remember to not smooth the clay. Bake this in the pan and leave it this way for the table. You can cut a square piece out if you like to serve on plates.

To make the miniature dollhouse turkey for your Thanksgiving Day dinner you will need brown clay, white clay, orange clay, and clear nail polish. Start by making a pan out of clay as you made one for the stuffing. Next mix the brown, white, and some of the orange clay together until you get a uniform color. Now make an oval shaped ball that is slightly flat on the ends. You can add a hole and some stuffing to simulate a real bird if you like. Next make little turkey wings using this clay by starting out with two balls. Pinch the end of the balls into a cylinder and bend the cylinder back against the ball to make wings. Next make drumsticks by starting the same way as the wings except don’t bend the cylinder.

Press the wings into the sides of the turkey base and flatten the ball. Gently push the drumsticks into the base, but make sure to keep them rounded to look realistic. Roll the rest of the orange clay into a long tube and cut into the size of baby carrots. Round the edges lightly and bake the entire thing. When the turkey is done glaze it with the clear nail polish and add it to the tray. Surround it with the baby carrots and serve it at your miniature dollhouse Thanksgiving Day dinner.

Making Thanksgiving Day dinner miniatures for your dollhouse can be easy and fun, and this is a great way to decorate your dollhouse for Thanksgiving.
