A DIY beads witch is a fun and creative craft project that allows you to make your own unique witch using colorful beads. This is a great activity for both kids and adults, as it allows you to unleash your creativity and create a personalized witch that reflects your style and personality. To create a DIY beads witch, you will need a variety of beads in different shapes, sizes, and colors. You can choose beads in Halloween-themed colors like black, orange, green, and purple, or opt for a more colorful and whimsical look. You will also need a piece of wire or string to thread the beads on, as well as any additional decorations you may want to add to your witch, such as a hat, broomstick, or cauldron. To begin, start by designing the body of your witch.
Here’s my video tutorial, complete with a little “Song of the Witches” reading (excerpt from Shakespeare’s Macbeth) for you at the end (at 10:25 to be exact). Please view it for earring assembly instructions, extra beading tips on wire wrapped loops and cool packaging/ gift card ideas. You can also purchase these earrings here.
As the spooky month of October comes to a close, I ve already taught several Halloween themed jewelry making classes to scare up some local student interest here in El Paso, Texas. As a fan of the Wizard of Oz, I thought it would be sparkle-riffic to create a pair of witch earrings using the green face and striped leggings motif.
To begin, start by designing the body of your witch. This can be a simple silhouette shape or a more intricate and detailed figure. Thread the beads onto the wire or string, layering them to create the desired shape and size.
Halloween Jewelry DIY: Wicked Witch Earrings Video Tutorial
As the spooky month of October comes to a close, I’ve already taught several Halloween themed jewelry making classes to “scare” up some local student interest here in El Paso, Texas. As a fan of the Wizard of Oz, I thought it would be sparkle-riffic to create a pair of witch earrings using the green face and striped leggings motif. I wanted to make the legs movable for an added cuteness factor & I had fun making 2 different versions after some humorous sparkly student feedback.

You can use larger beads for the body and head, and smaller beads for the arms, legs, and details. Once you have threaded all the beads, make sure to secure the ends of the wire or string to prevent the beads from sliding off. You can do this by tying a knot or using a crimp bead or tube. This will ensure that your witch stays intact and doesn't come apart. Next, you can add additional decorations to your DIY beads witch. This can include a witch's hat made from a cone-shaped bead or by constructing a miniature hat out of felt or paper. You can also add a broomstick made from a thin wooden dowel or wire, and a cauldron made from a small black bead or painted mini pot. Once you have finished decorating your witch, you can attach a string or ribbon to the top of the witch's head to hang it up as decoration, or you can create a keychain or charm by attaching a small loop to the head. This will allow you to carry your DIY beads witch with you wherever you go. Overall, creating a DIY beads witch is a fun and engaging craft project that allows you to explore your creativity and make your own unique Halloween decoration. Whether you choose to go for a simple design or a more intricate and detailed witch, the possibilities are endless when it comes to designing and creating your own personalized witch using beads. So gather your supplies and get crafting!.
Reviews for "Halloween DIY: Making Your Own Beads Witch Decoration"
1. Julie - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with the "Diy beads witch" craft kit. The beads were very flimsy and easily broke apart, making it difficult to create the witch design. The instructions were also confusing and lacked clear guidance, making it frustrating to follow along. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this craft kit as it didn't deliver on its promises.
2. Mike - 1/5 stars - The "Diy beads witch" was a complete waste of money. The beads were low quality and didn't stick together properly, resulting in a messy and unfinished witch design. The packaging was also poorly organized, with many beads overflowing and getting mixed up. I tried contacting customer service for assistance, but never received a response. This was a disappointing purchase and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
3. Sarah - 2/5 stars - I bought the "Diy beads witch" for my daughter and she was really excited to create her own witch design. However, we both found the craft kit to be quite frustrating. The beads were difficult to place correctly and the finished design didn't look anything like the picture on the box. The witch's proportions were all off and it was hard to make it look appealing. The idea of the craft kit is great, but the execution falls short.
