With just a few simple materials, you can create a spooky accessory that will bring the Halloween spirit to any costume. To make this paper plate witch hat, you will need the following materials: - Paper plate - Black acrylic paint - Paintbrush - Scissors - Ribbon or elastic - Optional: decorations like glitter, feathers, or stickers Start by painting the entire paper plate black. Make sure to cover both sides and let it dry completely. This will be the base of your witch hat, so it's important to have a solid black color. Once the paint is dry, take your scissors and cut out a small circle from the center of the paper plate. This will create the opening for your head.
Stevens has been given credit for shutting down Florida Panthers superstar Pavel Bure in the first round. He and partner Brian Rafalski will no doubt be assigned to stop Sundin and linemates Steve Thomas and Jonas Hoglund.
But since Larry Robinson replaced Ftorek, who was fired late in the season because his poor relationship with the players had the team in a steady downward slide, the Devils are emphasizing defence again. 1 centre, Bobby Holik, is unlikely to disappear, as Radek Bonk of the Senators did, that the Devils defence is tougher and more mobile than the Senators and that Brodeur against Leafs goaltender Curtis Joseph is likely to be a sawoff, then Sundin and company are going to need help.
This will create the opening for your head. Make sure to measure the size of your head beforehand to ensure a comfortable fit. Next, take the remaining paper plate and cut a straight line from the outer edge to the center circle.
Leafs will face new series of hurdles

ShareThe Toronto Maple Leafs escaped one trap this week, but are poised to step into another.
If the Leafs hope to get past the New Jersey Devils and match last year's appearance in the National Hockey League's conference finals, they must apply the lessons learned in beating the Ottawa Senators' trap in the first round of the playoffs. The Leafs must also build on their burgeoning sense of self, as a good team on the rise that can overcome obstacles such as suffocating checking.
There are differences in the neutral-zone trap games played by the Devils and Senators, but none as important as the talent differences on those teams. In Martin Brodeur, the Devils have the goaltender the Senators lacked to cover for the offensive shortcomings that cost them the series against the Leafs.
The Devils' defence, led by Scott Stevens and Scott Niedermayer, is also much stronger as a unit than the Senators' group. The Senators' forwards were more efficient as a group at slowing the Leafs down in the neutral zone. The Devils, though, are much more proficient scorers. Their 251 goals in the regular season stood second in the Eastern Conference.
"We're playing a team that changed its look a little bit," Leafs captain Mats Sundin said. Well, perhaps.
The Leafs ran up a 3-0-1 record against the Devils in the regular season. But a late-season swing back to some old habits means New Jersey won't be quite the same team when the second-round series opens tomorrow night at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto.
Under head coach Robbie Ftorek, the Devils opened up the checking game slightly. But since Larry Robinson replaced Ftorek, who was fired late in the season because his poor relationship with the players had the team in a steady downward slide, the Devils are emphasizing defence again.
Stevens has been given credit for shutting down Florida Panthers superstar Pavel Bure in the first round. He and partner Brian Rafalski will no doubt be assigned to stop Sundin and linemates Steve Thomas and Jonas Hoglund.
Thus, we return to that old hockey axiom: Your best players have to be your best players.
The Maple Leafs beat the Senators in six games because Sundin's line was magnificent. Despite a reluctance to counter the Senators' trap by dumping the puck in and forechecking -- something they would be foolish to repeat against the Devils -- the Sundin line eventually proved that speed and talent can prevail over dogged checking.
However, given that the Devils' No. 1 centre, Bobby Holik, is unlikely to disappear, as Radek Bonk of the Senators did, that the Devils' defence is tougher and more mobile than the Senators' and that Brodeur against Leafs goaltender Curtis Joseph is likely to be a sawoff, then Sundin and company are going to need help.
This means Sergei Berezin has to continue his swirling effectiveness, and the third line, anchored by Darcy Tucker, needs to keep contributing important goals. The Tucker unit was slowed when centre Nik Antropov went down with a knee injury. He is unlikely to return for this series.
The Devils are not without their problems. Stevens is their best defenceman, but he's also playing with a pinched nerve in his neck. Defenceman Ken Daneyko (strained abdominal muscle) and forwards Jason Arnott (sprained wrist) and Sergei Brylin (bruised knee) are also playing hurt.
It is tempting to look at the Devils as a formidable team again, given that they dismissed the Panthers in the first round in four games. However, the intangibles, as they call them, favour the Leafs.
Ever since they won the Stanley Cup in 1995, the Devils have either missed the playoffs or embarrassed themselves in them. And over the final 25 games of the regular season, the Devils were 9-14-2 and tossed away a 15-point lead in their division. This is only partly explained away by Ftorek's firing and the loss of Niedermayer to a 10-game suspension.
The Leafs have never been keen on playing the good trap teams, although for some reason they have made an exception in New Jersey's case this season. They scored a total of 15 goals on the Devils in four games, with Brodeur the victim on 12 occasions.
Given that Brodeur ran up a formidable .942 save percentage against the Panthers, the Leafs will have to remember their regular-season magic.
The Devils are not without their problems. Stevens is their best defenceman, but he's also playing with a pinched nerve in his neck. Defenceman Ken Daneyko (strained abdominal muscle) and forwards Jason Arnott (sprained wrist) and Sergei Brylin (bruised knee) are also playing hurt.
Then, form the plate into a cone shape and secure with tape or glue. This will be the top of your witch hat. To attach the cone-shaped top to the base, use tape or glue to secure the two pieces together. Make sure that the opening for your head is facing upwards and the cone is centered on the base of the hat. At this point, your witch hat is complete! However, if you want to add some extra flair, you can decorate it with glitter, feathers, or stickers. Get creative and personalize your hat to match your Halloween costume or party theme. To wear your DIY paper plate witch hat, simply attach a ribbon or elastic to the bottom of the base. Measure the length needed to comfortably fit around your head and tie or secure the ends together. This will keep the hat in place while you're trick-or-treating or attending a Halloween party. In conclusion, making a DIY paper plate witch hat is a fun and inexpensive way to add some Halloween spirit to your costume. With just a few materials and simple steps, you can create a spooky accessory that will impress your friends and family. So grab your paintbrush and scissors, and get ready to craft your own witch hat!.
