Witch Mini Swag for Your Halloween Decor
Today I am going to show you just how you can use a piece of greenery or garland to make a cute witch mini swag. All you need is a piece of garland or greenery as well as festive picks, stems, and your choice of ribbon. Follow me step by step as I show you just how to turn a piece of garland into a super cute mini swag.
After you see this you will start thinking of all the possibilities out there to make for each and every holiday. Can’t you just see making an Elf during Christmas time? I know I would love to have one of those in my home during Christmas time.
One technique I share in this tutorial is that when you are making a spray you have to make sure you shake hands with your piece of garland. Shaking hands is something I teach more about in my Design School. This is where you want to make sure that each piece of pine twine is flat and straight out. This really helps you create such a great base for your swag. Once you have shaken hands with your base you can now start putting your mini swag together.
Using greenery and garland is perfect for craft shows and is less time consuming to make. These simple and quick projects will help you if you are a crafter get more bang for your buck by making several of these to sell at your next craft show.

Ingredients
Directions
- Take your garland and cut it to be about 2-foot long section. You can cut it with wire cutters. Once you have it cut you want to make sure you make your piece of garland nice and flat and spread out by separating each piece of pine twine.
- Flip your piece of garland over and at one end tie two pieces of pine twin together to make a hanger.
- Now lay your legs down at the bottom of your garland and just leave it there no need to attach it just yet. Then with your witch hand take that pick and spread out the twigs and overlap on your boots. Once you are happy with your spacing just crisis cross in the middle with two pine twines.
- Using your colorful Halloween balls lay it down the balls pointing the bottom over the legs. You can secure this with pine twines. Once secure move your stems around pulling some balls to the top.
- Time to add the bow. Using your Happy Halloween ribbon and EZ bow maker we are going to make a super simple bow. Making your tails at 20 inches, make loops at 6 inches, and doing three on each side. Cut your tails at an angle. Then go back and make 16 inches tails and two loops at 5.5 inches. This bow is a 3-2 recipe. Secure your bow with a zip tie.
- Attach your bow to the center of your swag. Using a cable tie to secure it to the swag. Then curl up the ends of your ribbon tails.
