We like making stuff, and we really like Halloween. The start of the month kicked off with a flurry of crafts that are now tapering, but this is one of the coolest looking.
We chose square webs – so four sticks of roughly equal length we collected. The kids collect sticks and rocks (and pine ones and….and….everything) so we always have stuff going spare. Tie the edges together.
Then let them loose with sticky tape. Organised pattern, wild web spinning – anything goes.
Our spiders are just black paper and some googly eyes – as many as desired, obviously.
Finally, scrunched up balls of tissue paper make great bugs and are easy to stick onto the tape.
We added some black netted fabric as a ribbon hanger, and these bad boys are now adorning the stairs in the lounge, which always seem to be the home of seasonal/celebration all artwork.
This is one craft that the kids can take the lead on, and it always looks great. Enjoy!
