| Artsy fartsy Halloween crafting idea that uses electrical wire and electrical tape...it's electric! |
 |
| Reference shot: A Louise Bourgeois spider sculpture. Ours wasn't this big. |
 |
| Get the thicker stuff if you want it to stand up. Our version is a table top style and we used about 10 feet of it. |
 |
| Electrical tape was used to make the lumpy thorax and the "joints" and lumps on the spider. Wrap with abandon! |
 |
| Shaping the spider legs (but put tape on the ends of the wire first...it's pokey!) |
 |
| We wrapped the four pieces of wire with a lighter weight wire to bind the legs together. |
 |
| Electrical tape was wrapped around the center wire |
 |
| Use lots of electrical tape all over the legs. You don't have to be neat...the spider can have a rough look |
 |
| My kid never gets tired of tape, so this was a fun project for him. |
