These four cute little Halloween owls were made to live on top of cupcakes, but I’ll bet you can find other uses for them too. I did. As you’ll see below, I attached them to a 3D Black balsa wood tree I bought at Michael’s Crafts. I combined the owls with some foam leaves I covered with glitter glue. I’m sure there must be an easier way to make glittery leaves though! I spent many hours on mine. I also added some cute glittery balls that had the same colors as the toppers.
I used Art Minds Crafty Tack to attach everything to the tree. It’s the first time I’ve used it and I really liked it.
There was a lot of work involved but I’m very pleased with the final result. As is the case with much of my photography, the real thing is much cuter than the photo. ::groan:: Scroll down under the Download Template button to see it.

How to Make the Halloween Owl Toppers
To make the owls, you’ll need a sharp pair of scissors. I use curved manicure scissors but you can use whatever makes you comfortable. Once the owls are cut, you can make toppers out of them by just putting a small amount of glue in a vertical line about halfway up the back, from the bottom up. Then, just lay a toothpick or party pick (which is slightly bigger than a toothpick) in the glue and let it dry.
