I wrote this post while participating on the Glue Dots design team. Step 1 Remove all the smaller twigs and leaves from your large tree branch. Now, I’m all ready to fly away on my broom! 😉Ĭheck these out on the Products Page…Free Shipping going on now! I used a few Glue Dots to attach my signs to the broomsticks. Twigs, rye, wheat, dried roadside grasses, small vines, straw. A few well placed signs give your brooms the witch effect. Stick, branch, cornstalk, actual broom handle, large vine. For a simple wand, we commandeered a wooden spoon from the cookery drawer You can make your wand out of card covered in crepe paper or more felt. TA DA…a broomstick! YAY! I colored one of the skewers with Copic markers, the other I left au naturel. Next, I stuck the cut skewer through the tied part of the broom. I used these Tim Holtz/Tonic scissors to cut my skewer. Its that simple and you can embellish it further if you. If you don’t have any you should get some! You can find them at the grocery store or Dollar Store…usually. Add another layer of twigs and do a larger wrap with the twine, again adding hot glue.
I recently used them as plant stakes, as flower stems and for mustache holders. Wooden skewers are one of my crafting BFFs. Now you’ve got a broom! Always on hand? Wooden skewers! Now grab the piece you put aside and use it to tie close to the top of your gathered pieces. Try those too! After you get the lengths of thread/twine/whatever that you want, put one of the skeins aside. I’m sure if you don’t have this particular twine or any burlap you’ve got some yarn, thread or ribbon around. I’m using Joy’s Life Halloween Puns stamps to make the witchy signs. Pretty cool! Don’t have burlap? Don’t worry…just travel to the photo below. That’s what I did for the broom on the left in the picture at the top of this post. Do you have any? You can pull the threads out of it to use for a witches broom.
Burlap – even it’s threads are useful.īurlap has been popular in crafting for a while. Making a witches broom is so easy! I bet you even have the things you need on hand right now. Pretzel broom sticks are made to look just like a witch’s broom and can be given out in place of sweets and everybody loves them because they are festive and you get a pencil Don’t get me wrong, I’m all about the candy and treats that come around this time of year, but every once in awhile, it’s fun to make something that isn’t sugar coated. We checked and that will still ring in at less that the $70 or so you would drop on a store-bought enchanted broom.This craft is a sweeping hit! Bah ha ha ha… If you don't already own a Roomba-or you have second thoughts about using the prized robot vacuum you scored on Prime Day-another commenter weighed in that DIY'ers could use Five Below's $20 version.
