Halloween Party Favors and Crafts: Candy Spiders and Pumpkins

This might look familiar if you saw my Halloween Spider Hairstyle.  It's actually what inspired the hairstyle! These are 2 adorable Halloween crafts that can be used at a class Halloween party, as a gift, as table decor,  or as a party favor. And they are SO easy to make:

 

Materials Needed:
Netting (Orange or Black depending on which you are making)
Pipe Cleaners (Green or Black)
Googly Eyes
Hot Glue Gun
Candy Corns

Pumpkin Instructions:
1. Cut netting into squares about 4 1/2" x 4 1/2"
2. Lay Candy corn in the center (8-10 pieces)
3.  Pull all sides of the netting  to the center as if you are now holding a bag
4. Wrap one green pipe cleaner around the pumpkin
5. Twist each end of the pipe cleaner around your finger to create the vines
Spider Instructions:
1. Cut netting into squares about 4 1/2" x 4 1/2"
2. Lay Candy corn in the center (8-10 pieces)
3.  Pull all sides of the netting  to the center as if you are now holding a bag
