Multicolored Spider
Get ready to make a splash for Halloween with this giant colorful spider! This creative workshop is perfect for decorating the house in a fun and not too scary way. By transforming a simple polystyrene base with paint, chenille stems, and beads, children create a one-of-a-kind spider.
This is an ideal craft activity to turn your interior into a haunted mansion.
Why do we love this activity?
- We play with the Halloween black color scheme but inject flashy beads for a stunning result.
- Stringing beads and manipulating the chenille stems is the perfect exercise for small hands' mobility.
-
Once hung, this spider creates a real setting that stimulates children's imagination.

Step 1
Paint the polystyrene disc with black acrylic paint and let it dry for about an hour.

Insert the pieces of chenille into the polystyrene.
Step 3
Thread 2 colored beads onto each chenille stem and shape the spider's legs.
Step 4
Glue 2 colored eyes above the disc.
