Fun is definitely in the air with our latest idea on Glued To My Crafts! We want YOU to make your Halloween extra memorable for your little ghosts and goblins with our easy Popsicle Stick Witch & Black Cat kid craft tutorial!

It all started with some simple felt black cat stickers from Michaels… which then lead to today’s post which is filled with so much fun for your Halloween plans. It’s a “wicked whimsy” craft that will come together in no time. All you need is some wooden craft sticks, a little craft paint and scrap paper to pull it off!

No need to be scared of this duo! Although these partners in crime can be scary and up to no good in real life, this particular pair is not! Gather up a few simple materials and let your child’s creative side shines this upcoming “spook-tacular” season! Even if you are short on time, this “cute not scary” idea is super quick to recreate! Plus you can display it afterwards as creative decor!

Witch & Black Cat Craft Supplies:

* Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {3 per witch & cat craft}
* Mini Popsicle Sticks {2 per witch & cat craft}
* Mini Clothespins {2 per witch & cat craft}
* Low Temp Glue Gun
* Purple Craft Paint
* Black Craft Paint
* Small Paint Brushes
* Small Cat Stickers {I found my felt ones at Michaels in the Halloween aisle}
* Black Cardstock
* Green Cardstock
* Orange Cardstock
* Basic Paper Scissors
* Black Sharpie Marker
optional – small stickers, glitter, rhinestones etc.

Directions:

* First get the glue gun hot and ready!
* Assemble the base of your witch friend by gluing THREE jumbo popsicle sticks and TWO mini popsicle sticks together to look like a fence {3 next to each other and the mini popsicle sticks across}
* Set aside to let it dry completely. Repeat for each witch friend you want to make.
* When dry enough, go ahead and paint your newly made popsicle stick shape completely purple with the craft paint.
* Go ahead and also paint your TWO mini clothespins with a little bit of black craft paint {so the clothespins pop out from the purple background.}
* Set all the painted pieces aside.
* Now grab ALL your sheets of cardstock paper and scissors.
* Cut out a circle head, pointy witch hat, long legs, long orange hair, boots etc.
* Take the black Sharpie marker and draw on eyes, a pointy nose, squiggle mouth etc. on the witch’s head.
* Now go ahead and glue ALL the paper pieces to the painted popsicle stick shape from earlier.
* This next step is CRUCIAL. Take your TWO painted mini clothespins and pinch them {one on each side} around the decorative cat piece to look like her hands/arms are holding it.
* Go ahead and hot glue the combined piece you just made, to the center of the painted popsicle stick shape.
* To finish off the Popsicle Stick Witch & Black Cat craft, add any other embellishments you see fit.
* Then let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
* Don’t forget to snap a few pictures to share with us! #gluedtomycrafts
