About the broomstick stencil
A crossed broomstick and stars: a simple witchy symbol that works alone or as a side decoration next to a bigger carving. Because it is long and narrow, it also fits gourds and the slim side of a tall pumpkin where a face would not.
There are no floating pieces. The broom handle is a long straight line and the bristles are a fan of short cuts at the end.
Tips for this design
- Use a ruler to draw the handle straight.
- A drill bit makes small round stars.
- Put it on the back of a witch pumpkin.
Carving the broomstick stencil
There are no floating pieces. Cut the stars first, then the fan of bristles, and the long handle last in one smooth stroke. A ruler helps keep the handle straight when you transfer the stencil.
Cut the stars first, then the bristles, then the long handle in one smooth stroke. Full transfer guide.
Common mistakes
- Cutting the handle in several short wobbly strokes.
- Making the bristles too thin.
- Placing the broom across the stem.
Lighting and display
Because the broomstick is long and narrow, carve it on the side of a tall pumpkin or a long gourd and set it next to your main pumpkin, the way a witch would lean her broom against a wall. A warm orange light suits the bristles. It also works as a back design on a witch pumpkin, so the glow shows through on both sides. In photos it adds a story detail without competing with the main carving.
