Instructions

   Spiders

  1. Paint the 1” balls black and let dry. Cut eight chenille stem legs for each ball, bend, and insert four on each side. Cut shorter or longer legs for each body to create different-sized spiders. Glue the black beads in place for the eyes.

Crystal Ball

  1. Cut a small flat slice from the bottom of both 8” balls. Draw the opening you would like for the spider den with a black marker. Use the metal spoon to scoop the foam for the den’s opening.
  2. Brush a thick coat of the black grout onto the spider den and let dry. Brush a thick coat of the white grout onto the other 8” ball and let dry. Apply a second coat to each ball and let dry.
  3. Print out 4” black numbers (31) from a computer. Cut the numbers out and decoupage the numbers onto the front of the white ball. Coat the entire ball with the decoupage for a uniform look. Place the white ball on the candle holder to display.
