- Age Guideline: 6 Years and Up
- Time Required: 30 minutes (Does not include drying time)
The above age and time guidelines are estimates. This project can be modified to suit other ages and may take more or less time depending on your circumstances.
Materials Needed:
- Black Balloon
- Black Crepe paper
- Cellophane Tape and/or Push Pin or Tack
- Scissors
Instructions:
Start out by blowing up and tying the balloon. Tack it to your wall or ceiling, pushing the tack through the end of the balloon where you tied it closed. You can also tape up the balloon if you prefer.
Cut legs from black crepe paper and use tape or tacks to attach them to the wall or ceiling around the spider. Denise actually cut 4 longer pieces of crepe paper, criss-crossed them on the ceiling/wall, and attached her balloon to the center of it.
Denise says, "I made my first balloon spider by accident while decorating ceiling for my son's 7th birthday. Happy accident!"
