Paint the paper plate black. Set the plate aside, and allow it to dry. If you’d prefer a no-mess craft, you can use a black paper plate.

Once the paper plate is dry, use the hole punch to punch four holes on each side of the plate. Space the holes apart about 1-2 inches.

Cut the pipe cleaners in half. Place a pipe cleaner in each hole, and secure the pipe cleaner to the plate. Twist the end of the pipe cleaner around itself.

Bend the pipe cleaner toward the end to finish the legs for the spider.

Glue two eyes at the top of the paper plate.
