DIY Witch's Cottage Halloween Decor | Making a Witch House From Scratch

DIY Witch's Cottage Halloween Decor | Making a Witch House Out of Cardboard | I love the trend of taking dollhouses and turning them into a haunted mansion or witches hut, the perfect bit of Halloween Decor. But I don't have a dollhouse and I didn't really want to buy one so I decided to make my own Halloween witch house from trash, or rather make a witch's cottage out of materials I already had at home and recycling cardboard I had from packages, cereal boxes and the like.

Using cardboard, cheap paint, popsicle sticks, and a few other items this was a super fun Halloween craft and DIY. I intentionally wanted to make this house using things I already own and most people might have around their home or things that could be bought for really cheap at the dollar store or elsewhere. Something doesn't have to be expensive to be beautiful and I honestly felt that making this house from scratch and seeing it through all the decor stages was super fun.

I wanted this witch's cottage to have an old, worn, whimsical feel. Mossy and overgrown with a little pumpkin patch and graveyard. I take you step by step, give you tips and tricks and show you how to make everything from scratch including polymer pumpkins, how to paint our dollhouse, Tudor dollhouse windows, an eerie decrepit fence, faux stucco for our Tudor home, and much more. Hope you enjoy it!

Thank you so much for watching! Should I make a haunted mansion too?

[cobwebsandcatnip]

If I had made something this good I'd be running up and down the street accosting complete strangers, waving the house on their faces and yelling at them "look what I made!"
This house is so amazing!

[evelynbarris]

That is perfection. All from cardboard, card stock and clay. AMAZING. I think you should do a mansion. I think you can pull it off. You’re amazing 😊Great job

[QuiltingCrow]

I'm ready to move in with my cat and my little dragon! Really wonderful ❤❤❤

[BlondieKnots]

🪦 you’re videos are soooo aesthetic. I just recently found your channel and I love your content! Keep it up 😊

[lovelybudgetplans]

My goodness that came out stunning... it looks like a movie set.

[juliapolley]

Haunted mansion, and a haunted corn field with spooky scarecrows 😊 PRETTY PLEASE ❤

[aprilboyd]

I want to do this! I’m so excited, now I just need to do what you did and use a lot of used things that I have at home. There is no need to buy a doll house then turn it into this. Unless I can find a cheap doll house at a yard sale. I’m going to finish your video and get some ideas. So far this is amazing! Great job

[peachesthesordid]

Another thing you can use for cobblestones is egg cartons. Absolutely stunning project.

[abbyc]

This project turned out so beautiful 🧹🎃👻

[LynnYarbrough]

I am so proud of you for the “out of this world” job that you did on this witches cabin! You are so talented! Bless you for sharing!❤

[miraclemills]

THE BEST HOUSE EVER MADE from scratch that I've seen !!!! Amazing work!!!

[susanmacdonald]

That is amazing! I admire how you're able to make everything older and worn...not all houses are shiny and perfect.

[sarahlistmann]

I’m a spooky girl living in Colorado and have a rough day cuz I’m just longing for a rainy day. But then I stumbled upon your channel and you gave me all the vibes I needed today, thank you 🖤🖤

I made some of these Witch cottages that lit up and had fake smoke in the chimney to sell in 1999.. no one understood my vision, Now Halloween is huge!

[dimplepaw]

You are purely artistically gifted. The details you put into this house is amazing.
