Instructions

  • 1. Gather all of the supplies. Download and print the Hocus Pocus template sheet.
  • 2. Measure three rectangles that are 2” wide by 11” long on cream felt using a ruler and marker. Cut out with scissors, inside the lines, so you have a clean finished project.
  • 3. Using straight pins, attach Mary’s dress to burgundy felt, Winifred’s dress to green felt, and Sarah’s dress to purple felt. Cut out the patterns with scissors.
  • 4. Using straight pins, attach Mary’s hair to black felt, Winifred’s hair to orange felt, and Sarah’s hair to gold felt. Cut out the patterns with scissors.
  • 5. Assemble the felt bookmarks using the cream felt rectangles as the base, then attaching the dresses and hair with a glue gun and glue sticks.
  • 6. Flip each Sanderson sister over and trim any excess cream felt with scissors. Winifred’s collar and the top of Mary and Sarah’s hair for example.
  • 7. Using the pattern sheet as your guide add the Sanderson sisters’ lips to the bookmarks with red dimensional fabric paint. Add a birthmark to Mary and Sarah with black dimensional fabric paint.
  • 8. Add stitching on the three dresses with gold glitter glue. Set aside to dry completely before using.

Notes

You can also use liquid craft glue for this project, but you will have to wait for it to dry.
Low temperature glue works best with felt.
Use a scrap piece of paper to test the glitter glue and dimensional fabric paint before applying to the bookmarks.
