DIY Halloween Spider Cupcake Toppers
Hi there! It’s Ginger from GingerSnapCrafts.com. I absolutely love being a part of the Craftaholics Anonymous® Creative Team this year, & I am so excited to be here today with all of you! Usually I’m over on my blog sharing fun recipes, easy crafts or my latest DIY projects. You’ll have to stop by sometime. :)
How to Make Halloween Paper Spider Cupcake Toppers
You’ll need a few supplies:
- 2 inch circle punch
- Paper straws
- Glue
- Black card stock
- Scissors
- Googly eyes
- Paper trimmer
- White Vinyl mouths OR a white marker
1. First, you’ll punch out a bunch of paper circles. Tip: You will need two circles for each spider you are going to make. Then I cut “legs” about 2 inches or so long & about a 1/4 inch wide using a paper trimmer. Then you will glue your “legs” to the back of a paper circle using a glue stick.
2. Then glue the other paper circle right on top of that to hide all the messiness. ;)
3. Trim your legs (if you need to) with some scissors. Mine ended up being a little bit too long!
They were more like Daddy Long Legs instead of Halloween spiders. ha! ;)
4. Then I added a cute face! Next I cut the paper straws in half & glued one to the back of each spider.
5. Now the only thing left to do is stick these spooky cuties into some Halloween cupcakes! ha! :)
More Ideas: These would be perfect for any Halloween party or even as a cute spooky hang tag or even put on twine to make a Halloween garland.
Your kiddos would love to make these! They could get really creative with these little guys.
