DIY thread spider

Making a Spider Suit

The spider can look different. Be sure to include recognizable details: 8 legs, large “eyes”, of which there can be either 2 or 6. The color of the main set does not have to be black, use other colors. For example, add white or orange stripes.

We offer instructions for a DIY spider costume for the boy whose photo you see below. This is a classic look that would look great on Halloween or at a masquerade party at school or kindergarten. Its main advantage is that the process is simple and does not take much time.

And most importantly, the result will be very similar to a spider and no one will confuse it with another insect.

Here's what you'll need:

  1. black hat,
  2. white and dark material for the eyes, it can be felt or even paper,
  3. black long sleeve T-shirt,
  4. 3 pairs of men's socks (for older children you can use women's socks),
  5. black fabric, about half a meter (or old tights will do),
  6. elastic band at least 1.5 cm wide,
  7. cardboard,
  8. wire,
  9. material for filling the “legs”: foam rubber, old fabric, newspapers or other available materials,
  10. glue, needle and thread, tape, scissors.

Tip: If you don't have wire, use old wire hangers.

First of all, make the eyes: cut out white circles and glue the pupils downwards. Don't make too many eyes, 5-6 will be enough.

Glue the finished eyes to the hat with glue. Location doesn't matter, group as you see fit.

Idea: buy ready-made eyes with “moving” pupils.

Now make the paws. Cut out two oval bases from cardboard, measure the desired size along the child’s back, the ovals should not be too large and interfere with movements.

Place three wires between them (or straighten three wire hangers and place them inside the workpiece), wrap tightly with tape. Don't worry about the straightness of the delays.

Then wrap the legs with foam rubber or your filling. Make sure they hold their shape when you lift the workpiece. If necessary, secure them at the base.

Put socks or knee socks on your paws, bend the top two up, and the rest will lie down. Place it taking into account that between the top pair and the two bottom pairs there will be the child’s hands in the sleeves.

The legs will be worn like a backpack, so you will need elastic straps. Measure the length of the elastic bands and attach them to the cardboard base. Wrap the base itself with black cloth. If the elastic bands are white, cover them with dark fabric so that they do not stand out.

The final touch: sew the base of the socks to the fabric so that the filling does not show through. Add color accents if desired. Attach them to the legs and pant legs.

Using the same principle, it’s very easy to sew a spider costume from the cartoon about the Tsokotukha Fly with your own hands, just add a web of thick white threads.

The image is ready! Pair it with black pants or jeans.

Vary the number of legs. If the wire does not hold the upper legs well, lower everything down. Socks made from soft fluffy fabrics look great.

If you don’t have suitable socks, use two-piece “bags” instead. Decorate your paws with fluff.

Get creative and create your own versions!

DIY Halloween spider web made from wire and thread

The tradition of celebrating Halloween has recently entered the lives of Russians. But this interesting, original holiday is never complete without a sea of ​​impressions. One of the main attributes of home decorations is not only pumpkins, but also cobwebs. A DIY Halloween spider web is quite simple. There are several techniques for this using a variety of materials.

We knit decor

You can crochet a very beautiful decorative web, which will add an appropriate ambiance to the setting. Having real cobwebs in the corners is not very pleasant, but such an openwork thing will definitely become the envy of your skill. If you have sufficient knowledge, you can knit such a product.

To work on an easier version, you will need a hook (No. 8470 was used in the example) and yarn. You can choose any color, but the material is suitable with a large amount of polyester. You will notice the difference already when attaching it to the wall, because the material will stretch perfectly. Therefore, the span of the web will take about 30-35 cm, depending on the tension of the threads.

The process will not take much time if you know how to handle a crochet hook. For those who are not new to this business, we can suggest replacing the first column in each row with air loops. This way your web will become not only more voluminous, but also more realistic.

  • 1st row: 12 tbsp. with a ring over it.
  • 2nd row: 12 tbsp. yarn over and between each stitch there are 2 air loops.
  • 3rd row: 12 tbsp. and between them there are 3 air. P.
  • 4th row: 12 double crochets and 5 chain stitches between each stitch.
  • 5 row: 12 tbsp. with 3 yarn overs, 9 ch between loops.
  • Row 6: 12 st. with 4 yarn overs, 11 chain stitches between each.
  • Row 7: 12 st. with double crochets, 15 ch between each.

It turns out a neat, small web on which you can attach its owner, also made from scrap materials, beads, threads, etc. But this is only an approximate size. You can continue knitting as needed.

Sturdy and reliable

There are several options for making a web from wire. For the first one, you will need several branches, which can be found even in the city strip.

Connect them in the middle with wire, and then continue the spiral weaving from the center, securing the thread to each branch. As a result, you will get a composition made from semi-natural materials. This definitely cannot be ignored.

More complex options will require perseverance and skill. You will need thick wire. Since the composition is angular, it is necessary to make five “rays”, the outermost of which will be at an angle of 90 degrees relative to each other. The ends can be left straight, but if you wish, curl them, as shown in the photo below. We twist the place where they connect. We stretch the threads of the web across the entire width of the resulting element from one ray to another, etc. It is better to start from the wide part and gradually narrow the distance between the threads. This composition can be decorated with a homemade spider or dry leaves.

The most realistic spider web

Do you want to really scare your Halloween guests or tease your neighbors with your skills? Try to create a truly scary and realistic composition for the holiday.

Such a web is suitable both for the facade of a house and for decorating a small apartment inside.

A gauze web is a win-win option. Firstly, the material is accessible and will definitely be available to everyone. Secondly, working with it is easy and simple.

To create a lighter, airier version, you will have to tinker. It is necessary to stretch each thread of gauze. But the effect exceeds expectations.

Even your workplace can be decorated this way.

The second option is easier and faster - hang the gauze, stretch it slightly or tear it. The effect of realism will be less, so it is worth placing spiders and corresponding attributes on the canvas.

A web made from threads or ropes will look great. Wool yarn will do. If the threads are thin, then the white cobweb will look faded and unprofitable; it is better to use black.

Stretch six long threads crosswise in the place where you decided to install the composition, secure the ends with pins, nails, and masking tape. Closer to the center, attach a thread of the same color to any ray using a knot.

Moving in a spiral, secure parts of the web, making the distance between levels increasingly greater depending on the distance from the center. And at the end, secure with a strong knot.

The web is ready! It will look especially beautiful hanging on the corners. All that remains is to attach spiders and other decor to it.

Paper version

It is easy to make a patina from paper according to the principle of New Year's snowflakes. You will need a square sheet of paper and scissors.

Fold the sheet in half. Next, you need to mark the middle of the resulting rectangle. To do this, fold it in half and lightly press the fold.

Next we perform the following manipulations. We bend one side of the rectangle at an angle of 45 degrees. Then the second one, as shown in the photo.

We cut off the lower part so that an even triangle remains.

We also fold it in half and trim the edge slightly in a wavy manner. Next, using a pencil on the blank, draw the image of the future web.

Cut along the lines and unfold. The openwork web for home decoration is ready!

Making a spider web at home is very simple. And, of course, it’s better to prepare for Halloween with a large group of friends or family.

We complement the suit with accessories

A mask will be an effective addition to your DIY spider costume. If the hat is too hot, she will replace it.

There are many mask options, from simple to the most complex and requiring even more attention than the suit itself.

First version: a simple mask with an elastic band. The materials you need are cardboard, rubber band and paints.

Draw the outline of the mask on the cardboard and carefully cut it out. Make two holes on the side for the elastic and thread it through, measure the length for the child in advance. Make sure it's not too tight.

Then draw 6-8 eyes of different sizes on the mask. You need to cut out the pupils of two of them.

Color the mask. Ready!

Second version: spider with legs. The materials are the same; instead of cardboard, you can use paper or black felt.

Cut out the paws carefully, do not remember. Make the eye holes larger to make the child comfortable.

A few more design options for the same mask that will help you create your own unique accessory.

A more complicated version: make a spider hat with eyes and legs.

To create it, use the wire technique. Sew the printed 3D eyes close together for a realistic look.

Product on a slingshot

A wide variety of products and crafts can be woven from rubber bands. These can be rings, earrings, pendants, and various toys. By making things himself, a child can develop his own taste and image.

Wicker spiders will be a great addition to your collection of crafts; they can be used as a toy, souvenir or keychain. It can still be a very original gift. This is also a very good way to keep your child busy and captivate him with something entertaining and useful.

If you have not acquired such a device, then you can make a spider without a machine. You just need to replace it with a slingshot. The spider will be small in size. You can already use it at your own discretion. It can be like a ring, a toy or just a keychain. You can choose completely different colors. From believable black to bright multi-colored spiders. From the video you will clearly understand how easy it is to do this.

At first glance, very complex schemes turn out to be simple and easy. And how much joy finished things will bring cannot be expressed in words.

We complete the image of the spider - apply makeup

The makeup will be the final detail of the spider's image. Children love face painting and feel more confident in their new role. It's no secret that the image of a spider can be terrifying, and you can paint your face to match your suit.

If your child doesn’t want to paint his entire face or you have little experience in applying face painting, stop at drawing a spider on the cheek and forehead.

You will need two colors of paint: black and white. They are easy to find in a set so you don't have to buy them separately. Start with dark and move to light, tracing the outlines when the first layer dries a little.

For effect, add highlights or shadow to make it seem like the spider is real.

Simple instructions on how to make spider face painting yourself for beginners. All you need is black paint and a thin brush.

  1. Draw a web. Start with lines around the eyes towards the cheeks, temples, and forehead. In total, draw 8-10 lines on each side.
  2. Draw the web. Connect the guides with arcuate lines.
  3. The body of the spider will be located between the eyebrows. Draw an oval outline and color it in. Make the paws with dashes (each of two strokes, pointed at the ends). Draw the head at the top or bottom, depending on where the insect is crawling.

To complicate the design, add white accents and place a red dot with a light highlight on the body.

How to make a web with your own hands

How to make a web with your own hands? No, not one to house a pet spider in, but a decorative one.

There are quite a few options and some of them will be discussed below.

Web of thick threads

For such a web, floss or knitting yarn are suitable. You will also need scissors and masking tape. The latter is mandatory as it does not damage the walls.

If possible, you can drive several nails into the wall, then the web will stick better. Measure 4 threads of the required length. Fix two of them in the form of a plus sign, and the other two in the form of the letter x. This will be the basis for the web. Let's start weaving. Fold a long piece of thread in half, throw it over the base and thread the ends into the resulting loop. We simply wrap subsequent threads once. Having reached the end of the circle, the thread should be secured. Then you can cut it, or stretch it lower and continue weaving.

The web will look more elegant if you use yarn of different colors.

Gauze web

This web will be more dense. It is perfect for decorating a large space.

A piece of the required size is cut from the gauze, which is then stretched to resemble a spider web. This web can also be painted. To do this, you will need a bowl of warm water and gouache or fabric paint. Dissolve the paint in water and put gauze in it.

After the gauze is well stained, it needs to be wrung out and hung out to dry.

Paper web

A fairly simple way to make a web.

All you need is a sheet of paper of any color and scissors. The manufacturing scheme is similar to how New Year's snowflakes are cut out. If the sheet is rectangular, then it needs to be cut to make a square. Then the square sheet is folded diagonally twice. Make cuts without reaching the main fold line.

The shape of the cutouts can be any, as your imagination dictates.

Wire web

The weaving pattern of such a web is similar to a web of threads. Making such a web is much easier, since the wire does not sag and retains its shape well.

Beaded web

You can use wire, fishing line or thick thread as a base.

First you need to connect several threads, or pieces of wire, in the center, which will become the basis of the web. Then string enough beads onto each part so that it covers the base completely.

Now let's start weaving the web. We retreat 1.5 centimeters from the center and string the beads onto a new wire, fishing line or thread. If fishing line or wire is used, they are simply screwed to the base. If thread was used, a bead is fixed to the new thread, then the thread is pulled through the bead on the base.

Next, you need to string the required amount of beads so that the web is taut, or vice versa, sagging and walk in a circle in this way.

Knitted web

Those who know how to crochet or knit will have no difficulty tying a web.

First, a base of air loops is knitted, then they are tied in a circle with a single crochet. Next, you need to knit a long single crochet or double crochet, depending on how thick the web is supposed to be. When finished, the column is tied into the base with a slight indentation. You need to remember the number of loops. The next stitch is knitted in the same way and secured in the same way.

When the required number of stitches is knitted, move on to the second row. Knit as many rows as needed.

Preparing the necessary tools and materials

How to make a Spider-Man costume with your own hands?
Before you start creating a Spider-Man suit, you need to decide what materials will be needed for the work and prepare all the tools necessary for the work. To work, the needlewoman needs to choose a fabric. Knitwear is ideal, but for a festive costume you can use supplex. It will look original and unusual thanks to its shine. If the suit will be used as home wear or pajamas, then you should give preference to more natural materials, namely:

You will also need:

  • A spool of thread to match the material.
  • Acrylic paint and brush for decoration.
  • Black marker.
  • Sewing machine.
  • White corrector or paint.

It is advisable that clothing be made of thin materials and not have rough seams. This will make it more convenient to transfer it to prepared red and blue material. And the product will look neater.

Master Class

If you want naturalism, a short master class will tell you how to make a web differently for Halloween. This option (Fig. 2) resembles weaving a web by the spider itself:


Figure 2. Stages of making a spider web for Halloween.

  1. Drive several nails into the walls, floor, and ceiling to secure the base—radial threads (1). The outer contour (if you draw lines from one cap to another) may not be a strict circle, because the spider glues its threads where there is a suitable object, a twig or a blade of grass.
  2. Pull the threads so that they cross each other at approximately the same point. If at the intersection the radial rays are far from each other and do not form a plane, then they can be pulled together by tying a simple knot with the end of the working thread.
  3. From this point, moving from one of the rays to the neighboring one, begin circular weaving, forming a spider’s trapping net. For convenience, you can use a crochet hook by pulling a loop from under the radius and threading a skein of yarn or spool through it (2). Adjust the tension to taste, achieving a flat plane of intersecting radii and turns, or creating a slightly sagging, old web. Weave in a spiral without tearing off the thread until the desired diameter of the decoration is achieved.
  4. Pull a ball from a piece of fur - the body of the spider. Make paws from 4 pieces of wire, wrapping them with fluffy yarn or black electrical tape. Cross the pieces of wire in the middle and tie them together. By bending, give the paws the desired shape and glue a ball of fur at the intersection. If the latter is not available, the body of the spider can be made from wool yarn, winding it in a ball around the cross of wire legs. Hang the spider on the web (3). Dry leaves, branches, and plastic insects caught in a predator’s net can serve as additional decoration.

Such a web can look creepy and very similar to the real one (4).

If there are people in your household or guests who are sensitive to spiders, it is better to choose less irritating Halloween symbols.

Superhero image details

In order to create a recognizable image, you need to pay attention to the colors and details of the costume. The Spider-Man costume is made in blue and red tones. Patterns that are applied with black paint by hand.

The colors of the outfit must be distributed correctly ; the overall appearance of the product depends on this. The bottom of the product to the knee should be made in blue, but the trouser leg from the knee to the heels should be made of red fabric. The top of the product (jacket) must have a hood, which will subsequently be put on the child’s head and create a mask. The holes for the eyes should be thought out and cut out in the mask.

The colors must be distributed in this order: the hood, shoulders, sleeves and stripes on the back and chest should be red, but part of the sleeves and sides of the product should be sewn from blue fabric. The chest should be decorated with the image of a web with a spider. This decoration is applied with ordinary black acrylic paint and a thin brush. A similar web pattern is also applied to all parts of the costume, which are made in red.

Cutting the product

They made it for the costume and it was impossible to cut it by eye. To do this you need to have a suit pattern . Since the entire costume consists of a T-shirt and sweatpants, the child’s clothes will help us make the pattern. So, take the baby’s pants and T-shirt and turn them inside out. We lay out the parts on a pre-prepared paper sheet and outline them. All available seams must be indicated on the product and allowances must be measured. In order for the template of the lower part of the product to be made correctly, you need to turn the pants inside out, insert one leg into the other, and then trace the back and front of the product.

The resulting costume parts will need to be cut into elements that differ in color.

Assembling the finished suit and processing individual parts of the product

At the beginning of work you need to collect the parts. The product must be assembled in the following order:

  • First, the seams on the shoulders are sewn down.
  • The hood is assembled and attached to the neck.
  • Sleeves must be stitched to the armholes.
  • The side seams must be closed.
  • The front and back halves of the trouser legs should be sewn along the middle seams.
  • The internal and external seams of the product must be sewn.
  • The bottom of the trouser legs, sweaters and cuffs must be processed.

An elastic band must be inserted into the upper part of the legs. To do this, you need to make a turn and stitch it.

Decorating a suit with a pattern

In order to create a high-quality spider costume at home, you need to give preference to special acrylic paint for textiles.
It is securely fixed, impregnating the fibers of the fabric. The paint should not be liquid , otherwise it will be applied in wide stripes and spread along the fibers of the fabric.
The paint should be carefully diluted with water. A thin brush will help you do the job carefully. Work on creating a web pattern should begin by creating the rays for the web, after which you can draw curved bridges between the rays. This course of work will allow you to apply the drawing symmetrically. To prevent the paint from bleeding onto adjacent parts of the product, you need to place a sheet of cardboard under the canvas.

When creating a Spiderman costume for a small child, you should give preference, first of all, to the baby’s comfort. For a matinee in kindergarten, you can use a simplified version of the costume. In this case, the child’s main clothes will be jeans and a blue T-shirt. Over the T-shirt, you can wear a cape or vest, which is sewn at home. The cape should be made in red and blue colors. You can complement the look with red sleeves or new gloves purchased at the store.

The design on the cape can be done using a black marker, and the spider patch can be purchased in advance. If there is no black marker in the house, then the web can be embroidered with ordinary threads. True, in this case you will need to spend more time and a little more effort. But the finished product will amaze with its realism.

In addition to the image of Spider-Man, shoes should also be selected. It can also be decorated in the appropriate color scheme, or you can simply take ready-made sneakers or sneakers in red.

Don't forget about the mask, which will add mystery to the image. The mask can be made of fabric or colored cardboard. It should be attached with an elastic band. But what format of mask to use for the image is up to the little hero to decide. As a rule, the mask covers:

To make a Spider-Man mask from fabric, you need to take a child’s hat from a thin material, attach it to the prepared red material, trace and cut it out. Sew the details along the side seams and trim the bottom of the product with tape. Then you will need to sew on special ties that will help secure the product to the child’s head, and cut holes for the eyes. The area around the eyes should be overlocked and outlined with a black marker and white corrector for greater realism.

What does the Spider-Man suit consist of?

There are several options for tailoring a Spider-Man costume for a boy:

  1. Simplified version. Enough jeans, just add a blue and red turtleneck on top. Or a full-fledged suit, but the top and bottom in the form of blue leggings are separate. A hat-mask may or may not be included. There is a simplified version of the mask in the form of an ordinary carnival one, you just need to paint it with cobwebs;
  2. More complex tailoring. One-piece overalls with gloves and boots. That is, all the elements go together. More often than not, this model is chosen for performances, but at home this option is difficult to replicate. Only professionals can do this. This suit fits the body and looks more believable. The suit consists of 6-7 separately cut pieces that need to be sewn. Of course, this requires more skills and patience.

Important! The choice of costume depends on the purpose, on the perseverance of the child; for some it is difficult to wear a whole set, then you can limit it to only the top. True Spiderman fans welcome any interpretation that somehow resembles the hero.

It doesn’t matter which option you decide to go with, but it’s not just about the tailoring. To make the costume resemble a spider, you need to make the appropriate decoration. Paint all the red elements with a “web” and don’t forget about the spider applique. If desired, you can draw or embroider.

What you need to make it yourself

In order for the costume to turn out the way it was originally intended, you need to have the following materials and tools before sewing:

  • Stretch fabric in red and blue;
  • Scissors, ruler, measuring tape;
  • Chalk or piece of soap;
  • Threads are red and blue;
  • Black fabric marker;
  • Sewing machine and overlocker.

The simplified option is chosen, the less need for a sewing machine. For example, you can buy a red turtleneck and sew on blue elements. This can also be done manually.

Important! Supplex fabric is very suitable for such a suit. It stretches well, and the product does not lose its shape. Plus, the color palette contains the most suitable red and blue colors, completely identical to the original.

If you need to sew the top and bottom together or separately, you will need a pattern. No, you don’t need to build or draw anything. It is enough to find a children's sweater or turtleneck of the right size, leggings or sleep pants, lay them out on fabrics folded in half, and the pattern is ready. All that remains is to circle it, taking into account allowances of 1-2 cm.

  • strong double-sided tape.

How to weave a web with your own hands

I worked with regular lint-free knitting threads. If you use mohair, the web will turn out fluffier.

1. Let's start with the basics. Cut 3 threads of the same size. The longer they are, the larger the web will be.

2. Attach the base to the surface. Depending on the finish of the walls, the threads can be secured using tailor's pins or double-sided tape. The main thing is not to spoil the coating.

3. Unwind a small ball of working thread. We tie the tip to the middle where the main threads intersect.

4. Step back a couple of centimeters from the middle and wrap the main thread around the working thread. We transfer the working thread to the adjacent main thread and wrap it again. We continue this way until the web is ready. If the thread runs out, you can tie an additional one to it.

The web is ready. All that remains is to make a resident for her.

DIY spider - materials and tools

Time spent: 10 minutes. We will need:

  • aluminum wire - about 50 cm
  • wire cutters
  • pliers
  • Knitting
  • PVA or hot glue.

How to make a spider with your own hands

1. Straighten the aluminum wire using pliers and cut it into 3 parts with wire cutters.

2. We tie all three pieces of wire with threads in the middle.

3. We wind the pieces of wire together in the middle crosswise.

4. We begin to wrap the spider’s leg. First from top to bottom, and then from bottom to top. To prevent the thread from slipping, you can secure it at the tip with glue. Repeat the step with each paw.

5. Now we form the abdomen. To save thread, you can first wrap the middle with masking tape and the top with knitting threads.

How to make a Spider-Man costume: instructions

To sew your favorite Spiderman costume, you need to follow the following step-by-step instructions:

  1. Start with a pattern. As already mentioned, pants that fit properly will do. Lay them out on blue fabric and cut them out, but only shorter in length. Because there will also be an imitation of boots in the form of red cuffs from the shins to the ankles. To do this, you just need to cut out two rectangles from red fabric. Sew and paint an imitation of a web with a marker. They will be worn over pants, so you will need to look at the fitting to see if an elastic band may need to be inserted to ensure they stay in place on the legs. Sew the parts of the pants and insert an elastic band so that they are securely fixed at the waist;
  2. Now do the same with the top. Cut out the front and back of the baby's sweater. In this case, the parts should have a yoke made of red fabric. All other elements are made of blue fabric. In order not to get confused about what and where, it is better to cut the top by looking at a photo of the suit from the Internet or a sketch drawn with pencils. Again, the sleeves should be approximately to the elbow. For red inserts (imitation gloves), you need to cut out 2 rectangles. Since the decor of the top is more saturated, you should make an applique or embroidery of a spider at chest level, paint all the red inserts with cobwebs, and then sew all the elements;
  3. To make a hat-mask pattern, a very ordinary hat will do. Lay out and cut out two pieces on red fabric. The only thing is that the hat needs to be lengthened so that it reaches the neck. Draw an imitation of a cobweb with a marker, sew it together and make slits for the eyes at the desired level. Well, or an alternative in the form of a mask, as described above.

That's all! The costume is ready, all that remains is to find a reason to wear it. You can speed this up by arranging a photo shoot at home with your family.

  • Yarn (threads from any material, all kinds of colors)
  • Scissors (ordinary stationery, for cutting or even manicure)
  • Tape (use tape that won't damage your wallpaper and can be easily removed, such as masking tape)

Tools for thread web

Operating procedure:

  • To start, cut 3-4 long strands (or more) and secure them to the wall with tape (or nail them to the wall). Place them so that they all intersect in the middle.
  • Secure all the long pieces of thread in the middle with a small piece of yarn and tie them together. It is advisable to cut off unnecessary long ends.

Scheme and procedure for collecting webs from threads

  • Then take a long piece of yarn and begin to gradually form a web. Tie one end of the yarn to one of the long pieces of thread and do the same with each of the long pieces.

How to properly fasten and “tie” knots on a web

  • On each long strand, tie a large piece of thread to the strand (using a simple knot).
  • Continue moving from one long strand to the next, twisting and tying, until you gradually reach the very first strand you started with.

Trim any excess yarn ends. Each knot should be sliding so that you can easily move it up or down the thread.

The easiest way to secure it to the wall is with masking tape.

Repeat this step, using increasingly longer pieces of thread to form increasingly larger rings on your web. You can make these rings at a very short distance from each other, or, conversely, further away - it all depends on your mood and aesthetic need.

Only when you have finished weaving all the rings on the web will your spider web be ready!


Select the size and shape of your future web in accordance with the features of your wall, the location of bookshelves or windows.

You can weave a web, combining a variety of colors and sizes - compact white or huge black.

To further lift your spirits, you can weave a web from some bright, juicy threads! Don't forget to add small faux spiders to enhance the spooky effect!

Second option: hat + cape

What other outfit can you make with your own hands? This could be a spider costume, the main components of which will be a hat and a cape.

The cylinder can be made of thick cardboard. After painting the headdress black, you need to decorate it with cobwebs, which can be painted on. A voluminous fluffy figurine of a spider, made, for example, from thin woolen threads, will also look interesting on a hat.

The cape should be made of black cotton fabric. You can cut this item of clothing as a half-sun skirt. To do this, fold the fabric in half and draw a semicircle from the corner. Afterwards you need to process the bottom of the product and sew ties to it. To decorate the cloak, you can use white woolen threads. They should be sewn to the cape, imitating the web pattern. Instead of such threads, you can use voluminous braid or lace of golden or silver color.

Option three: with a backpack

Another element that can be used to make a spider costume is a children's backpack. If you use this item, you will end up with the image of an ominous cross spider. The backpack behind the baby's back will imitate the abdomen of this insect. The satchel should be filled tightly with cotton wool or foam rubber, covered with gray or black fabric and a cross should be drawn or glued on.

You can put a hat with funny spider eyes on your child’s head, which can be made from cardboard or buttons.

In this case, it will be interesting to look at the web, which is recommended to be drawn on the baby’s cheek with a transition to the neck. To create such a design, you should use paint designed for children's makeup in black, white and silver.

Method four: using a clothesline

The highlight of this outfit will be a cape that needs to be woven from a clothesline. This item of clothing will represent a web. Its appearance resembles a fishing net with large meshes. The top of such an improvised raincoat needs to be sewn to a vest from the baby’s wardrobe. It is recommended to make loops on the corners of this cape to secure it on the child’s wrists.

Under the raincoat you should wear a black turtleneck, which should be decorated with cobweb patterns. For this purpose, you can use the same clothesline. This will make the image harmonious. The bottom of the outfit can be shorts or pants.

You can complement the costume with a hat or top hat with eyes. Such headdresses have already been mentioned in the descriptions of previous outfits.

Spider-Man costume

5 years is exactly the age when a child already wants to feel like some kind of superhero, for example, Spiderman.

In order to make such an outfit, it is recommended to take a ready-made suit made of elastic blue fabric as a basis. This could be clothing for cyclists or divers. Using scraps of blue and red stretch material, you can add matching elements to your outfit to bring your little Spider-Man look closer to the screen.

After this, you should decorate the costume with gold and silver threads and sparkles to create an imitation of a cobweb. You can also use special fabric paints.

A mandatory attribute of Spiderman is red glasses or a mask. It is recommended to make them from an elastic material of the appropriate color and apply a web-shaped pattern with black paint. The result is an original accessory that your little Spider-Man will be very happy with.

It is best to complement a children's carnival costume with blue or red sports shoes. This way the child will feel more comfortable.
