Halloween Woodcrafting Yard Art Plans & Patterns

Wacky Witch

Sorry, but this funtime favorite probably won’t scare anyone away this Halloween. Our down-on-her-luck witch measures 47" top to bottom and can be cut to shape in less than an hour. Easy-to-follow painting instructions and full-sized patterns make building this project a snap.

Wayward Witch

Ouch! This tree-hugging grandma of Halloween could definitely use better directions, like the kind we give you to make this whimsical 48"-tall yard decoration. And with our full-size patterns, you can knock out the construction and painting in an evening, which is quite a trick, not to mention a treat for those lucky enough to see a sense of humor so well crafted.

Scaredy Cats

No bad luck with this pair of Halloween felines, just lots of second glances. Simply transfer the full-sized patterns for our 36" and 26" tall cats to 1/2" sheet goods, cut to shape, and paint’em black. Setting your yard apart this trick-or-treat season doesn’t get much simpler.

Ghostly Gathering

A bit too friendly to do much scaring, this haunted duo will liven up any yard come Halloween. Cut from 1/2" plywood and painted all white, these not so unfriendly 32"-tall ghosts will be in your front yard in no time. Or, using our full-sized pattern, cut and paint an army of these spooky spirits.

Tower O' Pumpkins

Light the way for little trick-or-treater's with this friendly trio of smiling Jack o' Lanterns. Our plans provide instructions and full-size patterns for a 36" tall tower, along with drawings for safe wiring. Now, that's not to scary, is it?

Going Batty

Have fun this Halloween by dangling a few of these winged critters from tree or house overhang. Painted black with orange eyes that almost glow in the dark, our bats have a two-foot wing span. You can easily cut and paint a sizeable flock in just a few hours. ~ 24" Wing span

Jumbo Transfer Paper

Smudge-proof, long-lasting sheets. Erasable lines that can be easily painted over. Perfect for transferring the full-sized patterns of WOOD plan yard figures to plywood. To use, simply place the transfer paper between the full-sized pattern and plywood (as shown at right), and trace the pattern onto the plywood. Each piece of transfer paper can be used numerous times. Each package contains (10) 18" x 24" sheets.
