Take a paper plate and cut out the center. Cover the paper plate with black paint and set it aside to dry.
Place two pom poms in the center of two makeup pads to create the spider’s eyes. Then stick your eyes to the black paint.
Next, cut out an oval shape around the sides of the makeup pad to represent the spider’s mouth. Stick to the black painted card.
Fold your gray paper or card in half and draw eight lines.
Cut out eight long strips of card.
Create a popup effect by sticking your legs to the back of the black painted card and standing the gray card up.
