Lollipop + pipe cleaner = Spider

We are helping host the Hamilton HalloTween (October 30 from 3-6 PM)

We are hosting a table of gross and I've decided to make lollipop pumpkin. I want to decorate the lollipops on my pumpkin like spiders. I love Halloween and all the fun crafts we get to make.

I went to the Dollar Tree with kids this afternoon, we bought pipe cleaners and lollipops to make this.
• Spiders: Snip off the top of a black garbage bag squares. Take three pieces of black chenille craft wire and snipped them in half to made 6 perfectly sized legs. Wrap the 3 wires around the stick once to hold the garbage bag on tightly and finally give them knees by putting a kink in each leg at the center.:



We also picked up toilet paper to make the Daddies turn into Mummies. Henry and Aaron tried to race cars on straw power, major fail, but they were unplugged from Roblox and STEAM. The girls also filmed their 100 layers of fingernail polish video. I love that they're spending time together, even if they are doing silly challenges.


For Spiders
1 bag of lolliPops
25+ pack black pipe cleaner
30 piece wiggle eyes
hot glue gun w/ 2 glue sticks

Take four fuzzy sticks and twist around the stick of the lollipop stick making 8 legs
Reshape pipecleaners for legs
Last, glue on two wiggly eyes.
