Craft Stick Spider Craft

I really like fall and the Halloween holiday because my kids think it’s fun. There are tons of fun crafts that are pretty easy and don’t require a lot of supplies for the Halloween holiday, so it’s easy to work on projects with the kids. Here is a simple, fun and spooky Craft Stick Spider Craft. Do you think spiders are creepy? I sure do, but this one is really cute and would be a cute Halloween decoration! Hang it from a doorway or place it on a table.

Supplies needed:

Wood craft sticks (Jumbo)
Hot glue, glue gun
Black and white craft felt
Scissors
Black paint
Paint brush

Directions:
1. Apply two coats of black paint to the craft sticks. Allow to dry thoroughly.

2. While the sticks dry, cut the spider’s eyes out of the felt. Cut two large white circles, and two small black circles. Glue the black circles to the white, using your craft glue. You will also cut out one large black circle for the body. Complete the face by gluing the eyes on top of the man circle.

3. Once the craft sticks are dry, layer them on top of each other so they fan out.
4. Space the sticks evenly so there are 4 “legs” on each side. Add a few dabs of glue under each so they attach to one another.
5. Add some glue to the back of the main body and press it to the top of the sticks. Your craft stick spider is now ready to be displayed.

Craft sticks are some of my favorite things to use in crafts. They come in different sizes and so they are easy to use to create different things, plus they are inexpensive and you get a ton of them in a package. Check out my other craft stick crafts.

Cute idea. I plan on making it a magnet so my kiddos can take it home and hang it up.

Really Easy & Cute! Was Bored on Rainy Fall Day & was able to find all the supplies on hand in my old craft box! Made then with my 4yr old but used Wiggle eye instead!
