The Halloween crafts have just begun!! Today we’ll create these fuzzy little spiders!! An activity that kids are sure to love! 😉

Required Materials:

  • 1 black chenille ball (for the spider’s body)
  • 4 black chenille stems (for the legs)
  • 2 googly eyes
  • Hot glue or craft glue
  • Scissors

Instructions:

  1. Preparing the Legs Take the 4 black chenille stems and cut them in half to create 8 pieces of equal length. These will become the spider’s legs.
  2. Assembling the Body and Legs Take the chenille ball and use hot glue or craft glue to attach the 8 legs. To create a realistic look, glue 4 legs on each side of the ball. Make sure they are securely attached and evenly spaced.
  3. Shaping the Legs Gently bend each leg in the middle to form a slight angle, making the spider appear to be in a “crawling” position.
  4. Adding the Googly Eyes Glue the two googly eyes to the top of the chenille ball. Place them close together for a cute look or slightly apart for a spookier effect.
  5. Finishing Touch Let the glue dry completely. If you’d like, you can add a clear string to hang the spiders, making them even more versatile as decorations.

Have fun!!!
