Halloween Decorations: Spiders
DIY projects for Halloween, Make your own Spiders. A cheap an easy project.
Running out of time for Halloween decorations, so I had to make my own ones and save money.
Most of Halloween decorations and crafts are easy to make. Halloween is basically a DIY holiday. Here are the instructions how to make spiders.
Simple Spider.
Material needed:
Instructions:
Cut in half both pipe cleaners, so you get four 5-inch long.
Twist all four pipe cleaners exactly in the middle and be sure it stays together.
Bend each leg and your Simple Spider is ready. The next step is optional.
Make your spider to look like crazy, glue both craft eyes.
Making a Tarantula
Bill of materials:
Use the piece of newspaper, make a small ball and wrap it with the black plastic. Cut the excess of material.
Twist three pipe cleaner pieces securing the black plastic. Use the 4th one to make the Tarantula's head.
Bend each pipe cleaner to make the legs and your tarantula is ready. Glue the craft eyes (optional).
Colorful Halloween Tarantula
Material needed:
Instructions:
Twist one black pipe cleaner and one yellow pipe cleaner. Repeat for all pipe cleaners.
Some crafts stores sell the striped pipe cleaners, but are quite expensive than the regular ones.
Twist all four pairs in the middle.
Make a loop exactly where all pieces were twisted. Make another twist to be sure it holds together.
Bend each Tarantula's leg to give the right shape. Glue the craft eyes (optional) and you have a crazy & colorful tarantula for decoration.
With less than one buck (dollar) you get a nice DIY craft. I hope you enjoy it.
