Mini spider pumpkin candles
I saw this idea in a magazine. I thought it would be cute to put these out for Halloween. All you need to make these cute little guys are black pipe cleaners, a sharp small kitchen knife such as a paring knife, the mini pumpkins and candles. I plan to get some flameless votives when I set them out on Halloween.
1. Measure the opening so it fits the candle.
2. Cut open the pumpkin and clean out all the seeds
3. Then cut the pipe cleaners for the legs. Bend the legs so they look like spider legs.
4. Then pull off some of the black fuzz and push them into the side of the pumpkin.
5. Fit the candle in the center. Then light it and you have a fun festive decoration for Halloween.
NOTE: when I first made these I used a glue gun to put the legs on they ended up falling off.
