PAIR YOUR WITCH CRAFT WITH —> Paper Plate & Yarn Pumpkin
Witch Craft Supplies:
- Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {3 per witch craft, jumbo or regular sized}
- Green Craft Paint
- Foam Paint Brush
- School Glue or Hot Glue Gun
- Basic Craft Scissors
- Black Cardstock Paper
- Gray or Black Craft Yarn
- Washi Tape or Halloween Stickers
Directions:
- First is the “witch’s” head. Go ahead and paint THREE popsicle sticks completely green.
- Now glue the THREE popsicle sticks together in a triangle formation. You will want ONE popsicle stick shape PER witch craft. Set aside to let it dry a bit.
- While that is drying, cut out a triangle piece from some black cardstock to be the witch’s hat. Decorate with washi tape and/or Halloween stickers. Set aside.
- Now grab the yarn. Cut SEVERAL long strips that will be the “hair” of the craft. This step could vary on how many strands you need/want. 12 inches or longer is a good length. Remember, you can also give your witch a haircut if the pieces are too long or uneven!
- Next go ahead and start tying {or gluing} the yarn to on side of the triangle shape. Add as much “hair” as you like.
- Finally – once all the hair is in place – glue your cardstock hat onto the popsicle stick shape and cover up where you tied off the yarn/glued it down.
- Add other embellishments you see fit like glitter, rhinestones etc.
- Set it all aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
