Outdoor Witch Decor

Create a life-size outdoor witch statue that will creep out the neighbors.

What You Need
  • 1/4-inch plywood
  • Jigsaw
  • Sandpaper
  • Primer: spray-on or brush-on
  • Paint: flat black spray-on or brush-on
  • 3-foot-long wooden stake
  • Black dry-wall screws

How to Make It
  1. Use a grid or photo copier to enlarge the witch pattern (Our witch stands 5 feet tall.)
  2. Trace the pattern onto plywood and cut out using a jigsaw.
  3. Use sandpaper to smooth all rough edges.
  4. Prime and paint black; let dry between coats.
  5. Screw the wooden stake to the back of the witch cutout, extending the stake below the bottom edge far enough to push into the ground.
