Halloween Witch Bookmark
It's Spook-t-ober and LBVJ'ers and book lovers, we are celebrating with this cute witch bookmark. Perfect to do with the kids, grandkids or as a craft with the class or for a Halloween Party!
Do not be scared by the hot glue gun. You could also use fabric glue. Or a low heat glue gun, which is handy when working with kids! (Or if you're a bit clumsy like me!)
Glue Guns Ready Girls!
Materials
- a piece of popsicle stick
- several pieces of crafting felt (yellow, green, orange, black and purple)
- paint brush
- black acrylic paint
- a pair of scissors
- hot glue
Step 1: Paint the popsicle stick with black acrylic paint. Let it dry for an hour.
Step 2: Cut an orange strip from the crafting felt. The width of this should be at least 1 to 1.5 centimeters.
Step 3: Cut a head-shape from the green craft felt. Take note that the witch is a woman so the silhouette of the hair on each side of the face should be prominent.
Step 4: Cut two sides of the short hair from the orange strip. The shape should be the same with the hair silhouette made on the green head from step 3.
Step 5: Hot glue the orange hair on both sides of the witch’s head.
Step 6: Cut a witch hat from the black crafting felt.
Step 7: Hot glue the witch hat on top of the head.
Step 8: Cut a small strip of purple felt. This will be the ribbon of the witch’s hat.
Step 9: Hot glue the hat’s ribbon. Cut the eyes, nose, mouth and dimples of the witch from the craft paper. Hot glue the details on the face of the witch.
Step 10: Hot glue the head of the witch at the end of the black popsicle stick.
Step 11: Cut a thin strip of orange felt and use this as an accent to the popsicle stick body. Glue the orange strip in a diagonal manner and parallel to each other.
Step 12: Finally done! You now celebrate Halloween while reading your favorite book!
Why just read when you can binge read?
