Craft Supplies:
Before you begin, make sure you have the following supplies ready. Most of these are easily available at your local craft store or even online:
- Jumbo Popsicle Sticks – 3 per craft
- Green Craft Paint
- Paint Brush
- School Glue or Hot Glue Gun
- Craft Scissors
- Black Cardstock Paper
- Gray or Black Craft Yarn
- Washi Tape or Halloween Stickers
Directions:
- Start with the witch’s head. Paint three popsicle sticks completely green.
- Once painted, glue the three popsicle sticks together to form a triangle. This will create the base for your witch craft. Allow it to dry for a few minutes before moving on.
- While the triangle dries, cut a small triangle from black cardstock to serve as the witch’s hat.
- Decorate the hat with washi tape, Halloween stickers, or any embellishments you like, then set it aside.
- Now, grab some yarn to make the witch’s hair. Cut several long strips, around 12 inches or longer. You can trim or adjust the length later to achieve your desired look.
- Attach the yarn to one side of the popsicle stick triangle by either tying or gluing it in place. Add as much hair as you’d like until the witch’s locks are full!
- Once the hair is secured, glue the cardstock hat onto the top of the triangle, covering where the yarn is tied or glued.
- Add any final embellishments, such as glitter, rhinestones, or extra details to make your witch truly magical.
- Let the craft dry completely before putting it on display. Enjoy your spooky creation!
