Hedgehog Witch Craft Supplies:
* Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {3 per craft}
* Mini Popsicle Sticks {2 per craft}
* Mini Clothespins {2 per craft
* Low Temp Glue Gun
* Small Witch Hat and Pumpkin Stickers {I found mine at Michaels in the Halloween aisle}
* Dark Brown Cardstock
* Light Kraft Brown Cardstock
* Black Sharpie Marker
* Small Black Pom Pom {1 per craft}
optional – small stickers, glitter, rhinestones etc.
Directions:
* First get the glue gun hot and ready!
* Assemble the base of your hedgehog 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.
* Now grab ALL your sheets of cardstock paper and scissors.
* Cut out a large heart shaped head, the spikes for the hedghog’s back and two small heart shaped feet. See our pictures for an example.
* Now go ahead and glue ALL the paper pieces to the popsicle stick shape you made earlier.
* At this point in time you should also use the black Sharpie marker to draw on eyes and hot glue the pom pom nose in place.
* This next step is CRUCIAL. Take your TWO mini clothespins and pinch them {one on each side} around the decorative pumpkin piece to look like the hedgehog’s 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 Hedgehog Witch craft, add the black hat sticker on it’s head. Following that up by adding 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
