Wine Cork Spider Craft

Easy Halloween Spider Craft

Spiders totally creep me out, but they make the perfect subject for Halloween crafts.   My daughter love ALL creatures, yep even the creepy crawly ones.  So here we are creating creepy, crawly spiders.  Although, I have to say this little Spider Craft is pretty cute.  My favorite part is that it can be made in under 5 minutes!

Wine Cork Spider ~ Halloween Craft

I am in love with all the adorable wine cork crafts that Michelle creates over at Crafty Morning.  They were my inspiration for our adorable little spiders.  Who knew a wine cork could be so versatile?!  Crafty Morning is packed full of fun and easy kids crafts, so grab a coffee before you click on over!

Stamping with kids is so easy and fun.  If you have not tried making our DIY re-usable stamp pad, this would be a great project to try it out.

Encourage the kids to dip one end of the wine cork into the black paint and press to onto their paper.  Repeat as many times as they want.  The more black circles they stamp, the more creep, crawly spiders they will end up creating.

Once the paint dries, draw eight legs onto the black circle and add googly eyes.

Start by stamping a wine cork spider on a small brown paper bag and let it dry.  Finally, trim the top with decorative scissors, add a few Halloween treats and seal with a strip of washi tape.

Super simple and oh so cute!
