PAIR YOUR WITCH HEDGEHOG CRAFT WITH —> Paper Plate Hedgehog In Pumpkin
Craft Supplies:
- Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {3 per hedgehog craft}
- Mini Popsicle Sticks {2 per hedgehog craft}

- Small Witch Hat and Pumpkin Stickers
- Dark Brown Cardstock Paper

- optional materials – 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 hedgehog’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.
