DIY Halloween Costume: Spider

This adorably creepy costume works well for any age. Crawling kiddos look especially creepy in this costume! If you have sewing skills, you can use a sewing machine in place of the hot glue gun.

What you'll need:

• 1 black hoodie
• Up-cycled plastic bags, fiberfill or other material for stuffing
• 2 pairs of black socks
• Hot glue gun and glue sticks
• Black yarn
• 1 pair of black mittens
• 1 pair of black sweatpants
• 1 pair of black shoes
• Spider glasses (optional)

Instructions:

1. Stuff each sock with an up-cycled material or fiberfill.

2. Using a hot glue gun, attach two socks to each side of the hoodie, placing one sock just below the armpit and another just above the hem of the sweatshirt.

3. String the spider sock legs together by hot gluing the black yarn to the back of the first sock, then along the back of the second sock and sweatshirt arm. The yarn should form a straight line from one leg to the next. Be sure to leave a bit of space between each leg.

4. Repeat Step 3 on the opposite side of the sweatshirt.

5. Wear the black mittens, sweatpants, shoes and glasses to complete the look.
