Twig mummies bring together nature and creativity in the simplest way.

Collect sticks during a fall walk, then transform them into playful Halloween characters by wrapping them up like little mummies.

Also, the texture of the bark peeking out makes each one unique.

They’re a charming, eco-friendly craft that doubles as a great activity to keep children entertained while adding rustic Halloween charm to your décor.

Materials Needed

• Twigs or small sticks (dry and clean)
