If you are looking for a quick and easy Halloween craft project idea, this fun recycled egg carton witches nose is super simple to make and will have the kids cackling!<\/p>\n

I’m always loathe to throw out egg cartons, they are so versatile as a material in all sorts of recycled arts and craft projects. Inevitably I’ll end up with a big pile and then my husband will pop them in the recycling bin during a big tidy up.<\/p>\n

With Halloween nearing, it struck me how much the center of the cartons looked like a witch’s nose.<\/p>\n

Maybe it’s because we recently watched Hocus Pocus<\/a> during a Family Halloween Movie Night<\/a> and I had witches on my mind.<\/p>\n
