The before and after pics of the Dollar Tree Spooky Wood Pallet Witch hat showing what it looks like once its all crafted and decorated with traditional Halloween colors.

I have a problem (addiction) where I feel the need to buy every single seasonal thing that Dollar Tree sells. Call it FOMO. Call it being prepared. It is what it is, but I’m not complaining because some really cute crafts come out of it!

Case in point, this Dollar Tree Spooky Witch Hat!

I’m not huge fan of the traditional Halloween colors. I either do Rainbow Halloween, or I like to stick with more black and white like the Foam Cone Mummy above.

I decided to go traditional Black, Orange, Green and Purple with this Spooky Witch Hat and I’m so happy I did! What colors would YOU have decorated this one with?

How to Decorate a Dollar Tree Wood Pallet Witch Hat

This Spooky Witch Hat was super easy to make, here’s how!

Watch the video here

First things first, paint your wooden surface all black. I used the back of a Dollar Tree sign and it worked just great.

Then, trace the shapes of each section of the Wood Pallet Witch Hat onto your scrap book paper. Then cut them out and Mod Podge those babies down.

Use a sanding sponge and a nail file to sand off the excess and get in the small spaces. It’s tedious and time consuming, but the outcome looks so much more finished.

Now glue your decorated Witch Hat to your black background, and glue the “Spooky” underneath”. You could use a different word if you like, or you could leave it off altogether.

Now for the bow! Cut several strips of coordinating ribbon, trim, and pom poms, about 4-5″ long. Then layer them in an X formation and tie a piece of string around the center.

Glue a piece of black and white bakers twine to the top of the back for the hanger. You may want to reinforce it with some popsicle sticks for good measure so that you know it will hold.
