Hi I love all you ideas. I am trying to make # 27. Turkey Lollipop. With adorable free printable, but I’m having issues printing out the free printable. Would you be able to send this to me?
Thank you!

Hello, I am having issues printing the Turkey Lollipop as well. Can you send me that template as well.
Thanks!

Hi! It looks like the turkey lollipop printable has been taken down. It’s from someone else’s website, and I can’t pull it up either. Maybe you could make your own? It’s super cute!
Katie says
I’m sorry I don’t have it. I linked to the website where I found it, but it looks like it’s having problems. Maybe you could make your own? It’s super cute!
