Instructions

• Create the witch’s hat:
• Cut out two matching circles from black felt about 16” in diameter for the hat brim. Hot glue these circles together to make a stiffer brim.
• Cut out a smaller circle in the center of this circle for the head opening. Cut a large triangle about 12” tall with a rounded bottom edge.
• Roll this into a cone shape and hot glue together and around the head opening circle to make a pointy witch’s hat. Hot glue an elastic band to the hat to hold it onto the head if necessary.
• Purchase prop broom OR create your own with these instructions:
• Cut about 12” tall rectangles from kraft paper and fringe cut the paper to make the broom “bristles”.
• The top of the paper should still be attached so you can roll the paper around the bottom of the wooden dowel and hot glue together.
• Add as much fringe cut paper as you like to make the broom nice and full. Once finished, wrap and tie white string around the top of the paper bristles.
• Finishing touches:
• Wear the green leggings and gloves for green witches skin.
• Optionally, you can paint the face green with child safe face paint OR you can paint the lips green and wear green eye makeup using safe face paint or makeup.
