How to Make Spider Napkin Rings...

Compliments of Janell Beals

Hi Friends,

Give your next gathering a spooky touch with these felt and pom-pom spider napkin rings. This project is perfect for little hands but sophisticated enough for teen and adult gatherings. Plus, who can resist those googly eyes?

Materials Needed:

6 1/2" black pom-poms
12 pieces black pipe cleaners
12 pieces wiggly eyes
1/3 yard orange felt
fabric glue
invisible fabric pen
scissors
ruler

Begin Assembling Spiders
Lay out supplies to make six spider napkin rings (Image 1). Cut 12 pieces of black pipe cleaner in half. Using four cut half lengths, twist together at center point to create spider legs (Image 2).


Create Spider Heads
Glue two wiggly eyes to each pom-pom using small dots of fabric glue.

Attach Spider Heads to Legs
Apply fabric glue to center of spider legs and top with pom-pom pressing firmly to secure.

Cut Inner and Outer Felt Lengths
Cut orange felt into six 2 1/2" x 12" long lengths for inner rings (Image 1). Cut orange felt into six 2" x 12" long lengths for outer rings (Image 2).


Create Inner Rings
Using 2 1/2" wide felt lengths, create inner rings by applying fabric glue to one end overlapping 1/2 inch. Press ends together to secure.

Add Outer Ring and Attach Spiders
Wrap 2-inch wide felt lengths around rings, applying fabric glue to one end overlapping 1/4 inch (Image 1). Press ends together to secure. Turn rings over, apply fabric glue to center of ring and press spiders into place (Image 2). Allow to dry.


This family project will be sure to spook up your Halloween get-together, plus they are easy to make and so cute...
