I have had the best time creating easy and inexpensive Halloween decor this year. This spiderweb pumpkin is no exception. It’s unique and seriously fun to make! Make sure you check out my other Halloween DIYs for more great ideas.

Watch the video above to see how you can easily make your own, or keep reading for step by step instructions. Enjoy!


Materials:



  • Craft Pumpkin
  • Hot Glue
  • Black Acrylic Paint
  • Black Faux Florals
  • Plastic Spider


STEP 1: Draw your design

Start by drawing a spiderweb design using a pencil on your pumpkin.

I am not an artist by any means, so I just looked up an easy drawing tutorial on YouTube and followed that.


STEP 2: Trace your design with hot glue

Once you’ve finished drawing the web, use a hot glue gun to carefully go over the design.

STEP 3: Paint you pumpkin

Allow the glue to cool and dry, then paint over the design with black acrylic paint.

Use a sponge brush to dab the paint into the areas that are hard to paint over.

STEP 4: Add decoration

Once the paint has dried fully. Add faux flowers of your choice to the top of the pumpkin. You can also add a plastic spider crawling to it’s web.

These are such fun and you can really draw any type of simple design on it if you want to have a variety of pumpkins. If you like this project and want to see more, visit my   YouTube Channel.

    A thought that occurs to me - pull off the glue spider web once finished painting the pumpkin. Then, it would be the orange of the pumpkin and show up much more vividly.
