Because our cat silhouette is life-size (that's what makes it so scary), the template is printed in sections and taped together to form the complete image.

Each piece of the template has been labeled with a letter-number combination that refers to its placement in the master template. Once each piece has been printed out, place the individual sheets in order following the master templates (below).

Once pieces are in the correct order, tape them together to create one large template. Cut out and affix to plywood with repositionable spray adhesive.

1) Print out the tiled sections and tape together, using cropmarks as a guide. 2) Cut out and affix to plywood with repositionable spray adhesive. 3) With a jigsaw, cut out design; peel off template and paint plywood black. Let dry for 30 minutes. 4) Hammer conduits into ground, sinking 12 inches for witch and 8 inches for cats. 5) Attach figures to conduits using 3 conduit sraps and 6 screws for the witch and 2 conduit straps and 4 screws for each cat. 6) Fasten a broom to the witch’s raised arm with remaining conduit strap and screws. Attach a cup hook to her other hand, and hang a lantern on it.
