A couple of weeks ago I shared my Halloween Cat on The Wood Connection. You also were able to see my Halloween Cat on my Halloween Mantle. Today I wanted to share with you my Halloween Cat tutorial.
The Wood Connection has so many fun Halloween crafts – trying to decide what to make is always so difficult!
Halloween Cat
Supplies Needed:
Wood Cat kit from The Wood Connection (this includes moon, star, nose and bell)
Black Wire
Orange Ribbon
Black Jewels
Paint – Black, Gray, White, Yellow and Purple
Glue & Scissors
Sandpaper
Let’s Get Started
The first thing you will want to do is a light sanding and then dust off all sawdust. Once that is complete paint the cat black, the moon yellow the nose gray (white white dots) and the star purple. You could do the star another color if you would like – I think it would look great.
After the paint is dry it is time to put everything together. First we are going to start with the face. Cut the wire for the whiskers. I bent the wire slightly so the whiskers would be at a nice angle. Glue the whiskers down then the nose on top of that. I used the black Jewels for the eyes.
Wrap the black wire around the star and moon. Leaving a bit at each end to make a pretty twist – this is easily done by wrapping the wire it around a pencil. Once that is done glue the purple star onto the front of the cat.
Wrap a bow around the cat’s neck with wider orange ribbon. I also added a bell to a thinner piece of ribbon and tie that around the neck as well.
This project is super quick and super cute!
Here the cat is on my mantle – I just love the cat here!
