Get creative this Halloween and make your own witch hat with just a few paper plates – perfect for kids of all ages!
Craft Supplies:
- Large Paper Plate – 1 per craft
- Craft Scissors
- Black Craft Paint
- Paint Brush
- Black Cardstock Paper
- Scrapbook Paper
- Stapler
- Halloween Stickers
Directions:
- First things first – take your paper plate and cut it in half. Straight up the center to make TWO equal pieces. You only need one half per craft. Either repeat the craft or save one half for a rainy day.
- Now that you have your paper plate piece, squirt some black paint on it.
- Use the foam paint brush to paint the paper plate completely black.
- Set it aside to allow it to dry completely.
- Now grab your black cardstock paper, scrapbook paper and scissors.
- Cut out a large triangle from the black cardstock.
- Out of the scrapbook paper, cut out a thin rectangle piece to be the “decorative band” of the witch hat.
- When the paper plate piece is dry enough to touch, grab it along with your paper pieces, stapler and embellishments.
- To finish off the Paper Plate Witch Hat craft, simple staple the black triangle piece to the back of the painted paper plate, to create the hat shape.
- Follow that up by stapler on the band and adding any other embellishments you see fit.
- Then display it proudly for ALL to see!
- Don’t forget to share pictures of your paper witch hats with us on your various social media sites! #gluedtomycrafts
