About these witch stencils

The witch on a broom is the most recognizable Halloween silhouette, and it is easier than it looks: the moon behind her is one big opening and she is the dark shape left in skin.

For a quick win, carve the witch hat or broomsticks on small pumpkins and line them up on the steps.

How to carve a witch pumpkin

  1. Pick a design and download the PDF in the size that matches the flattest face of your pumpkin.
  2. Cut a lid or a hole in the back, scoop out the pulp and thin the front wall to about 1 inch so the light shines through.
  3. Tape the stencil flat, poke along every line about 3 mm apart, then peel the paper off.
  4. Cut out the black shapes with a small saw, smallest pieces first, and keep every white bridge.
  5. Light it with an LED and clean up any edges that block the glow.

Carving tips

  • Carve the moon circle last on flying scenes.
  • Use green LEDs inside the cauldron design.
  • Hat and boots are great for kids.
