DIY creepy spiderweb craft for Halloween
Weave your own spiderweb for fun and creepy Halloween decor.
I used yarn as spiderweb strands to weave them around popsicle sticks to look like a spiderweb. I stuck on a fake plastic spider from the dollar store to complete my Halloween craft.
In my tutorial, you will learn some ways to incorporate it with your Halloween porch decor to spook your trick-or-treaters by using magnets to attach them to your metal front doors. If you don't have a metal front door, stick them on the mailbox to freak out your mailperson.

Step 5
Step 4
To begin the weave,
Pull the yarn from the back of the star on the left side of one of the sticks.
Pull the yarn to the right going over the same stick plus the next one over.
You then go under the second stick and make a loop with the yarn so that you again have the yarn coming from the back of the left side of the second stick.
Continue the same weaving instructions around the star.
As you go around, you’ll move the yarn up a bit to leave a third of an inch between the strings. -
Step 6
When you get to the point where you only have about a half of an inch of popsicle stick left, stop. Tie a knot around the stick you leave off at. (For some reason, I found that particularly tricky.)
At this point, you can cut the string at the knot to make the magnets, or you could leave a good length to hang the spider webs as a different option.
