DIY Halloween Wrapping Paper

DIY Creepy Crawly spider wrapping paper for Halloween

I love creating my own wrapping paper. It is so easy to do, and adds a fun personal touch to your gift. Spruce up your Halloween gifts with this simple technique that will not only save you a trip to the store but also get the kids involved.

To create our wrapping paper, we simply created LOTS of wine cork spiders.  Remember the adorable spiders we made a few days ago?  We simply covered a sheet of brown paper with dozens of spiders.

We had to wait a bit for the paint to dry, but other than that it was a super quick process.  These might be the only creepy crawly spiders I could handle being surrounded by!

Instead of goggly eyes, we used white puffy paint.  I was worried that the goggly eyes might pop off, so decided to play it safe with paint.
