10 Craft Ideas to do With Christian Thanksgiving Coloring Pages
Once those finished coloring pages pile up, don't let their blessings fade – these easy, affordable crafts put them to beautiful, meaningful use!
1. Our Family's Gratitude Jar
Decorate a clean glass jar (or empty cereal box for younger kids) by gluing cut-out scripture verses or scenes of thanksgiving from your colored pages around its exterior. Add a paper label reading “Our Gratitude Jar” or “Blessing Box.” Throughout the Thanksgiving season, family members can write down specific blessings or things they are thankful to God for on small slips of paper and place them inside.
2. Scripture Table Placemats
Select favorite colored Thanksgiving scenes or Bible verses from your pages. Carefully cut them out and arrange them on a piece of construction paper or cardstock to create a collage. Glue them down, then cover the entire placemat with clear contact paper or laminate it for durability, creating personalized, faith-filled placemats for your Thanksgiving meal.
3. “Give Thanks to the Lord” Banner
Cut out individual letters spelling “GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD” (or a similar Christian Thanksgiving phrase) from colorful construction paper. Decorate each letter with small cut-outs of harvest scenes, crosses, or scripture snippets from your finished coloring pages. Punch holes in the top corners of each letter and string them together with yarn or ribbon to create a meaningful banner for your home.
4. Harvest of Blessings Mobile
Use a wire hanger or two craft sticks glued into a cross shape as your mobile base. From your colored pages, cut out symbols of blessings such as cornucopias filled with faith symbols, praying hands, or harvest images alongside relevant scripture verses. Attach varying lengths of string or pipe cleaners to the cutouts and tie them to the mobile base, creating a beautiful display of God's provision.
5. Faithful Feast Story Puppets
Cut out characters or elements from your Christian Thanksgiving coloring pages that might tell a story of faith, gratitude, or a biblical Thanksgiving account (e.g., pilgrims giving thanks to God, harvest scenes, figures praying). Glue each cut-out onto a sturdy craft stick or popsicle stick. Use these puppets to retell stories of God's faithfulness or create new ones during your family's Thanksgiving celebration.
6. Thankful Heart Wreath
On a piece of poster board or an old cereal box, draw and cut out a large heart shape to serve as your wreath base. From your finished coloring pages, cut out smaller heart shapes, doves, crosses, or specific words like “grateful” and “blessed.” Glue these smaller pieces, overlapping them, around the heart-shaped base. Add a loop of ribbon at the top for hanging on a door as a reminder of God's love.
7. Psalms of Praise Accordion Book
Take several pieces of construction paper and fold them in an accordion style. Cut out various biblical Thanksgiving verses, small scenes of worship, or figures praising God from your colored pages. Glue one cutout onto each panel of the accordion book, creating a sequence of visual praise. This makes a lovely, personal scripture display you can set on a shelf.
8. Christian Thanksgiving Place Cards
Cut out small, decorative elements or simple Christian symbols (like a cross, a dove, or a small prayer hands image) from your finished coloring pages. Fold pieces of cardstock or stiff paper in half to make standing place cards. Glue the cut-outs onto the front of each card. You can then hand-write each guest's name on one side and a short blessing or scripture on the other.
9. Blessings Memory Match Game
From your colored pages, carefully cut out pairs of matching Christian Thanksgiving images or short scripture phrases (e.g., two identical crosses, two “Give Thanks” phrases, two harvest scenes). Glue each image onto a small piece of cardstock. Once dry, flip all the cards face down and play a memory matching game, finding pairs of God's blessings.
10. “Thank You, God” Bookmarks
Cut out strips of cardstock or sturdy paper. From your finished Christian Thanksgiving coloring pages, cut out favorite small images, Bible verses about gratitude, or phrases like “Thank You, God” and “Blessed.” Glue these onto your cardstock strips. Punch a hole at the top and thread a piece of yarn or ribbon through for a tassel. These make thoughtful gifts or additions to your own Bible.
