When I was searching the web for crafts to make with all our left over Jell-o cups, I saw amazing little reindeer, bats, aliens, etc. However, Maura and I were mostly concerned with making cute little fuzzy legged spiders. We were inspired by many other spider crafts we found on google, and we made up this cute little bunch of spiders:
Starting with clean, dry Jell-o cups, black acrylic paint, glue on eyes and black pipe cleaners:
Paint the inside of the cup black.
Paste the eyes on- Maura used Tacky Glue and hers stayed on, I used Elmer's and my eyes sagged. (not a commentary on true life-
at all.)
We used a single hole punch to punch 4 holes on each side.
Insert pipe cleaners in a criss-cross manner:
And I suppose- take a pic of the finished product :)
Quick, easy and fun and encouraged much discussion about spiders.
That could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on your love for arachnids.
