Spider Pod
-----------------------------------------------------------------| materials 1 milk jug hotglue/spray-on adhesive cotton batting/fiberfill spider webbing twine/string 1 pumpkin light colored saranwrap small piece of dowel rod spiders |
|
| First I drilled a hole in
the cap, then ran the twine through the hole and wrapped the end around a small piece of dowel, I then stapled and hot glued the end of the twine to the dowel. Next I cut almost all the way around the handle, leaving about 2" uncut below the handle. I took the pumpkin light and wrapped it in blue plastic wrap. |

I put the light in the jug and
hung this from a pipe in my shed/workshop. Next I took the cotton batting and began gluing it to the jug. I used spray and hot glue to do this until it was covered. |
| Ok, now I grabbed my heat gun
and CAREFULLY melted some of the batting without burning it. I did this so when I put the webbing on it would have some places to stick to. I cut some sections of webbing and began wrapping it around the pod. Then I stretched it up the string and let some hang down so I could attach it to ....whatever. |

Here it is lit up. |
| Now the only thing left to do is add spiders! |  |
 Well thats it.The light pulsates so I made a short video which you can see below. http://s245.photobucket.com/albums/gg66/spiderfreak-photos/Spiderpod/?action=view¤t=SpiderPod .flv |
