Halloween Peg Dolls: Witch and Ghost

Continued...

7. The hat is ready. Add a black ribbon around it for additional decoration. You can glue the hat on the witch, but I thought it would be more fun for children to take it off and put it back on.

8. The black paint on the witch has sufficiently dried while the hat was being made. Take white paint and with a thin brush make stripes across the witch's dress. Or maybe you will prefer a polka-dot design?

9. Now, let's work on the witch's cloak. Cut the shape shown on the picture out of black felt.

11. With a fine tip marker, draw the witch's face. Take some red yarn and glue it to her head with Fabri-Tac glue.

12. Take a bamboo skewer or any wooden dowel and cut it to make a handle for the witch's broom. Use straw or coarse threads for the broom's brush. Glue the fibres of the broom to the handle, then tie with a string.

13. Now that the witch is ready, we will finish making the ghost. Fortunately, all it needs is a couple of spooky eyes and a mouth, drawn with a marker.

Aren't they an extravagant couple? My son could not wait to play with them!
