Halloween Witches Made From Leaves
The Halloween stuff is starting to hit the shelves in various stores already, so it seems only natural that it’s time to get ready for sharing even more “bewitching” fun craft ideas on Glued To My Crafts. My creative juices are flowing, so stay tuned for TONS of new and fresh ideas!
Till then – I’m starting the “spooky” fun with today’s Leaf Witches kid craft tutorial! It all started with a package of inexpensive decorative, plastic leaves from Dollar Tree!
With this simple DIY craft activity for Halloween, you and your child can conjure up a wicked good time that is sure to be remembered for years to come! You can even continue the fun by taking it from the craft table to the living room for some fun pretend puppet play!
It’s super easy, really inexpensive and fun for ALL ages! Just cast a spell with some decorative plastic leaves, colored cardstock paper and a little imagination to bring this spirited witch craft design to life!
Happy crafting this upcoming SPOOK-TACULAR holiday, my friends! You can find all the details for this witch made out of leaves craft idea below.
