I can't even remember when I started collecting turkeys. Originally, I was only going to collect vintage little gobble, gobblers but over the years my collections has evolved into a wide variety of the feathered bird. Here is part of my favorites,...oops, I shouldn't say favorites I really don't want any ruffled feathers. This turkey is a reproduction . I love his color and the lid comes off so you can use it as a candy dish or serving piece.
All the turkeys on the sidecar are rather old. This sweet pine cone turkey Lisa made for me when she was a bluebird.....I can't believe it, but that was over 35 years ago. Time does fly.
I love the little candle turkeys. On the bottom of each one is the original sticker with the manufacturers name and priced 29cents. I'm so glad they were never burned.
Look at this guy, he is just too cute. This handsome fellow is crafted from tulle, and just makes me smile. My husband found him at the WX peddlers faire last month. This Sunday is the faire, I wonder if we can find him a partner?
This is a perfect serving piece, but for me I just enjoy displaying it. This piece I found last year at the WX, hope I find a treasure or two on Sunday.
My Blessings

Mom, Havnt posted on your blog for sometime but look often. Everything looks so nice! I love that you added the music player, your song picks are awesome, especially over the rainbow. All the gopple gopplers look great, I really like the 1 Dad found at WX.. I hope you find some nice ones on Sunday and maybe you will be lucky enough to find some vintage christmas decoration too.
I love you, Lisa

Great turkeys, Linda! I have a platter like yours, tucked away somewhere. I should see if I can find it.

I love your turkey collection, Linda. I only have a few of them, but enjoy bringing them out during November to celebrate this lovely month of Thanksgiving.
Your new plate in the post up above is going to be a nice addition.
Best wishes to you!
