DIRECTIONS:
JOANN HACKS:
- Black Light Cardstock, 6 Sheets
- Decorative Halloween Paper Stocks, 4-5 Sheets
- 1 Can of Purple Spray Paint
- 1 Can of Purple Shimmer Paint
- Embroidery Hoops, 5
- 1 Sheet of Foam Core 30"x 36"
- 1 Roll of Double Stick Tape
- Pencil
- 1 Bottle of Tombow Glue
- Compass or Large Dinner Plate
- X-Acto Knife
- Scissors
- Optional: Large Dinner Plate
DIRECTIONS:
- Spray paint the foam core with the purple paint. You will need to put 2-3 layers of paint onto the foam core board. Let it dry between layers.
- Paint a layer of the shimmer paint on top.
- On the black cardstock, take the compass and set it onto the corner. Open the compass to make an arch from the opposite corner to corner.
- With scissors, cut the arch to create the cone of the witch hat.
- Make a circle for the base of the hat with the compass or a smaller plate to trace.
- Make buckles on the patterned paper and glue onto the front of the witch hat.
- Glue the rim onto the cone with the Tombow glue.
- When making the cone, use the double stick tape and apply it to the straight edge of the black paper.
- Slowly try to make the cone and overlap the edge of the black paper covering the tape while making the paper cone.
JOANN HACKS:
- If you don't have a large compass, you can find a large dinner plate that goes from corner to corner. Use a pencil to trace the curve.
- Use light coats of spray paint so not to warp the foam core board.
