Materials Needed
- Halloween 1" Words Stencils (20 pcs)
- Spiderweb Pattern 12x16 Stencil
- I Put a Spell on You Stencil Pack (3 pc)
- Salem Sisters Apothecary Stencil
- October Nights Mini Stencil Pack (6 pc)
- Stencil Brush Set
- Wood broom board cutout
- Acrylic paints (purple, pink, white, black)
- Painter’s tape
- Sandpaper
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Create the Painted Background
Blend together purple, pink, and white acrylic paints across the broom cutout. Use a brush to soften the colors into a whimsical background.
2. Paint the Edges
Apply purple paint along the sides and edges of the board to frame the design. Let it dry completely.
3. Smooth the Surface
Lightly sand the background to create an even surface for stenciling.
4. Stencil the Handle
Using the Halloween 1" Words Stencils, tape down the words “witch” and “broomstick” along the broom handle. Fill them in with black paint using a stencil brush.
5. Add the Spiderweb
From the Spiderweb Pattern Stencil, position a small section just below the lettering. Fill lightly with black paint for texture.
6. Stencil the Main Phrase
Center the “Welcome My Pretties” design from the I Put a Spell on You Stencil Pack in the middle of the broom. Fill with black paint.
7. Add the Witch Silhouette
From the Salem Sisters Apothecary Stencil, stencil the witch at the top center of the broom.
8. Embellish with Bats and Webs
Using the October Nights Mini Stencil Pack, add a few bats in random spots. Reposition the spiderweb stencil to add layered webbing below the witch silhouette.
9. Final Reveal
Once everything is dry, you’ll have a fun, spooky Halloween broom sign ready for your front porch or entryway!
Helpful Tips
- Mix colors freely — blending purple, pink, and white adds a whimsical touch beyond the traditional brown broom look.
- Use light layers when stenciling with black to prevent bleeding under the stencil.
- Reposition stencils creatively — you don’t need to use the entire pattern. Partial webs and bats add depth.
- Seal your project with a clear topcoat if you plan to display outdoors.
