Trash Bag Giant Spider Webs

5

If you are looking for a high-impact, budget-friendly decoration that can cover an entire wall or window, look no further than the humble black trash bag. This craft is essentially the Halloween version of paper snowflakes, making it familiar yet exciting for kids who already know how to fold and cut paper. Start with a square piece cut from a black plastic trash bag. Fold it diagonally into a triangle, then fold it in half again, and once more, just as you would for a snowflake. Using a white chalk marker, draw guides that resemble a spider web pattern along the folded edges. Help your children carefully cut along these lines. When they unfold the plastic, they will be greeted by a massive, intricate, and surprisingly delicate-looking spider web. Because these are made of plastic, they are durable, weather-resistant, and perfect for hanging outdoors on porches, trees, or windows to delight trick-or-treaters.
