(a glue gun is faster and you don't need to wit to paint it)
black tape of paintable tape for securing legs
What You Do:
Take a toilet paper tube, cut two round pieces off the end. These are the eyes.
Glue them on the end of the rest of the tube right at one of the edges.
Then along each side where you want to put the legs poke 8 holes.
Poke twist ties into holes and secure inside with black tape or tape that can be painted on.
Paint your spider, let dry.
Buttons or beads or marbles could make the eyes.
Attach a string from the back, arrange the legs to your liking and there you have a wide eyed kooky spider.
