<\/p>\nAre you ready for Halloween? Have you decided what\u00a0fun, and of course spooky craft you are going to do first? You have to try our spooky pine-cone Halloween spiders. They are the perfect combination of outdoor play and adventure\u00a0and creative painting and crafting.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1. Have an outdoor adventure and collect your pine cones. Watch out though, they can be a bit spiky!<\/p>\n
![\"Collect](\"https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Collect-your-Pine-Cones.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
2. Create a safe place to start your painting – maybe use some newspaper or an old paint-sheet.<\/p>\n
3. Lay out your pine cones, pick the best ones – see if you can find the most stable side of the cone, one that wobbles the least.<\/p>\n
4. Paint your pine cones. We used spray paint – it can be quick and easy. If you don’t have any spray paint\u00a0you can use any craft paints you might have at home.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
5. whilst your cones are drying why not decide what colour pipe-cleaner legs your spiders are going to have. Halloween colours like black, red or orange.<\/p>\n
6. Depending on how tightly closed or open the scales of your cone are there are two ways you can attach your spider legs.<\/p>\n
– If the gaps between the scales of the cone are open wide you can easily slip the pipe-cleaners between the gaps to make your little spider legs.<\/p>\n
– If they are still quite close together you can instead tie the four pipe-cleaners together and them on in one bunch and spread them out.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
7. \u00a0Now its time to glue on your googly eyes. Spiders have 8 eyes (creepy hey!) or you could put on some pretty googly eyes with eyelashes just to be different!<\/p>\n

8. With the left-over pipe cleaners we stuck on tiny fangs too.<\/p>\n
9. And that’s it! An easy and fun Halloween decoration all done.<\/p>\n
