Spiderific Halloween Wreath!


I am always in a crafty mood, but when it comes to Halloween, I get overly excited to create more crafts. I love door wreaths, they look so good and can be made for any occasion. So, why not make a spooky Halloween wreath. Wouldn't that be fun? Now, lets begin making our Spiderific Halloween Wreath.

Supplies used and needed for the Halloween Wreath:
Grapevine wreath
Black Tulle or ribbon (which ever you like)
Plastic Spiders-Black, Purple and White (or your own colors)
Glue Gun (Adult use this only)
Black or Spray paint (to be safe use spray paint outside)
Spider web

We went out side to paint our wreath black. In order for my daughter to participate in this project I ended up using regular black paint instead of the spray paint, since she loves to paint. Sophia had so much fun painting the wreath. Then it was time to dry off.  
Once the wreath is completely dry, I started to tie the black tulle ribbon at the button of the wreath.  I reached for my spider webbing and wrapped it around the wreath to fully cover it. Now it is starting took a little scary right, LOL. Then you are ready to place the spiders on the wreath. Sophia loved the glittery purple spiders we found at the craft store. They really look good. This is the part where I take over, since I will be using the Hot Glue to attach the spiders onto the wreath. You can arrange them anywhere you like or even use little plastic skeletons. Now, tie the remaining tulle on top of the wreath to hang it from.  Take a second look to make sure everything looks the way you like it. If it looks great then it is time to hang your lovely Spiderific Halloween Wreath on your door. Voila! You are done!  

Sincerely,

Show Me Mama

Super cool! I was thinking I needed something "scary" instead of "cute" for the front door to match my zombie decor. I think I'll try it out!
