STYROFOAM™ Halloween Creatures
Creepy, Crawly Spiders
Make these scary spiders to spook guests in expected and unexpected
places. Hang them on walls or place them on the table, they are sure
to bring the Halloween spirit to your house.

What you will need:
-
Styrofoam Ball - 3 inch (makes 2 spiders)
-
Styrofoam ball - 2 inch (makes 2 spiders)
-
Chenille sticks in black or brown
-
Red or silver sequins for eyes
-
Golden paint
-
Black paint
How To: 1. Slice the 3 inch ball
into two halves using a waxed, serrated knife. 2. Slice
the 2 inch ball neatly into 3 parts. You will need only the top and
bottom parts for this project. Reserve the middle portion for another
craft. 3. To join the two styrofoam shapes (3 inch half
and 2 inch part) together at what will be the spider's neck, apply
glue to one of the pieces where they need to be joined. To the other
shape, push a pin halfway into the foam and the push the remaining
into the glued part. The pin and glue together will help secure the
body of the spider. Keep aside till dry. 4. Paint the
spiders black and leave to dry completely. 5. Cut
chenille sticks and push into the sides of the spider as shown to form
the legs. 6. Paint golden streaks over the spider's
body. 7. Glue sequins to form the eyes and you are
done.
