How to Make Halloween Wooden Spoons

First, paint all of your wooden spoons:

Paint the full spoon orange for the pumpkin
Paint the witch top green and the handle black
Paint the Frankenstein top green and the handle purple
Paint the vampire top a beige color (or this color) and the bottom black

Here are the 4 different wooden spoon step-by-step instructions:

Pumpkin:

1. Cut out the eyes, nose and mouth out of black felt and glue on.

2. Cut out a stem from brown felt or burlap ribbon and glue to the back top of the spoon.

3. Cut out a leaf from green felt and glue beside the stem.

Frankenstein:

1. Cut out the eyebrows and mouth from black felt and glue on.

2. Cut out the hair from black felt and glue to the top of the spoon. You can trace around the top of the spoon for the rounded shape and then when you cut make some zigzag lines.

3. Add googly eyes on top of the eyebrows.

4. Glue on 2 black buttons on the handle.

Witch:

1. Cut out a hat from black felt and glue to the top of the spoon

2. Add a strip of gold glitter foam paper to make a brim for the hat.

3. Cut out strips of orange felt for the hair. Glue to to the sides of the spoon. You may need to cut the top of the strips on an angle so they line up to the hat.

4. Glue on 2 googly eyes. Then add the nose and mouth with a black sharpie.

5. Glue on 2 purple buttons on the handle.

Vampire:

1. Cut out the hair from black felt and glue to the top. When cutting out the hair, make a peak so that it comes down close to where your eyes will be. You can trace around the top of the spoon for the rounded shape and then when you cut it out make the peak in the hair.

2. Cut out a triangle shape from the red glitter foam sheet and glue to the back of the spoon.

3. Cut out a narrow triangle from white felt and glue to the top of the handle.
