Halloween Crafts & Art Projects

This Spider has character and attitude! Made using simple craft materials and a tin can.

 Directions:

1. Remove paper from a tin can and wash thoroughly.
2. Drill two rows of 1/8-inch holes (8 total) in the side of the can for the legs.
3. Paint the outside of the can with black acrylic spray paint. Let dry.
4. Paint the inside of the can with salmon craft acrylic paint. Let dry.
5. Using tooth-shaped craft scissors, cut a strip of white cardstock and glue it around the inner lip of the can.
6. Push four long chenille pipe-cleaners through the holes to form legs.
7. Cut a tongue shape out of green felt, long enough to reach the back of the can and come out of the front of the can about 3 inches.
8. Thoroughly glue the tongue over the pipe cleaners inside the can.
9. Glue two google eyes on two black pompoms and then glue to top of can.
10. Position the spider on a store-bought or home-made web.
