Jenn, teacher of the day, myself, Patsy and Kari with our finished webs
Branches are drilled with the tiniest of holes. Fine fishing line is threaded through them to create the radial arms and a hot glue gun is used to create the webbing. Here Jenn demonstrates how to use the glue gun ...
Patsy's was very effective ...
Kari's was miniature and matches her petite self ...
Mine was haphazard! You might be asking why make them? For the sheer joy of learning to do something new and to be in the company of fine people. But, what do we do with them? I've got mine parked atop the kitchen cupboards where I am either trying "to convince real spiders the spot is taken" or "don't worry spiders, I keep house casually". (Thanks Fran!)
The next tutorial is on January 31st when I'll be the instructor and we'll be doing mixed-media, free-form painting!
so cute cool Halloween craft to do with teen girls :)
