I have to admit—one of the spiders on these webs made me jump the other night when I wasn’t paying attention. The room was fairly dark and at a glance I saw a big spider on my door! Of course, half a second later I realized what I was looking at! Haha!
These webs are kind of like the equivalent of making the paper snowflakes we made as kids – but for Halloween.
It’s a fairly simple process and the spiders are even more simple to make! Yay!
Let’s get to it, shall we?
- Start with a piece of paper (thinner paper is recommended).
Fold it over and cut the edge off leaving a perfect square
Fold it in half making a triangle.
- Fold it in half again making another triangle.
Fold one side over creating an excess triangle shape on the top.
Cut that excess piece off.
Draw out a cutting guide.
- Start cutting along your guide. Take your time. It is very easy to cut the web in half by accident.
Carefully open your web and flatten in out.
All done!

How to make the spiders
Use some puff paint to draw out your preferred spider shapes on a piece of parchment paper.
Let the spiders dry completely and gently peel them off of the paper.Â
Glue the spiders onto the web and attach the web to a window and see who you can frighten first!
