Creepy Halloween Centerpiece: Spider Tree

Here's a "spider tree" that is an easy Halloween decoration to make and will look great in a picture window, on a table in the foyer or as a centerpiece for a Halloween party. I started with a store bought tree made from paper-mache and pipe cleaners. Then I just glued black feathers, green millet and green spider mums to the pipe cleaner branches. I used a floral adhesive for the spider mums and it looked great, without water for over a week!

If you want to turn the creepy and scary up a notch, wrap the entire tree with spider webs. These spider webs are so easy to make and can be put almost anywhere.

Just take two small pieces of Styrofoam about 3" to 4" in size and put a dollop of hot glue on one of the pieces.
Put the two pieces together and slowly pull apart. You will see the spider strings start to form.
Take your arms and go around the tree and press the two pieces of Styrofoam together again and then pull apart and bring your hands back around the tree and meet again in the front.
Continue to do this until you are satisfied with the amount of spider webs you have created. To remove the spider webs, just spray with a hair dryer and they will melt away!
