Hi friends,
We’ve got a simple craft with colorful pumpkins and fuzzy pom pom spiders.
Micah and I colored small pumpkins and gourds for our background, then added a large black fuzzy spider in the foreground. Instead of bent legs, we squiggled them for the appearance of a spider in motion. Take a look at our pumpkin & pom pom spider below.

BACKGROUND
Turn your paper horizontally, and draw your pumpkins, gourds, and vines if you choose.
BODY
Create a large circle with glue, fill in the center, and add plenty of pom poms.
Press the pom poms down firmly.
LEGS
Cut each pipe cleaner into 4 pieces.
Bend or squiggle each leg before sliding between the pom poms and pressing down.

Add 8 dots of glue onto the pomp poms, press the eyes down, and let dry for about 15 minutes.
That’s it!
Happy crafting
