2. When your newspaper has finished drying cut out the pieces for your newspaper witch craft. You’ll need to cut out a face and nose from your unpainted newspaper. Cut out a hat and dress from your black painted newspaper. Cut out small strips from your orange painted newspaper for witch hair.
3. Glue the witch dress at the bottom of your cardstock paper. Then glue the witch face at the top of the dress. Crinkle up pieces of the orange newspaper strips and glue them on the sides of the witch face for witch hair.
