This is last years post. This is a fall craft that we do every year so I am just sharing again this year! :)
(NOTE: paint was not dry when I took this picture. All your paint should turn the same color after drying)

I got several comments and emails from my easy lunch post about Captains lunch sack for his pumpkin patch field trip so I will tell you how it's done!
I used a gift bag from Christmas last year but you could use a gift bag, a brown paper lunch sack... whatever!
You will need finger paint, glue, glitter, and eyes.
We made our Halloween cards the same day to save on messes. I will use the cards for a demo since they are the only thing I took pictures of! :)
It;s super duper simple.
Get you paper, choose where you want your spider,
apply paint to 1/2 of the palm and all 4 fingers (no thumb unless you want a 10 legged spider.)
Press hand onto paper.
Do the same to the other hand and line your palm up to the print already made to make the spiders body. Press the fingers down for the legs and you are done.
Apply eyes or you can just draw them on!
I drew spider webs with glue and sprinkled glitter on top.
The kids each made one for their teachers with a little message.
Ninja made one for our librarian since I am his teacher. lol
We also made cards for each set of grandparents with all the kids spiders on them.
That's it! I told you it was crazy simple!
Have fun and if you make them, you know I want to see pictures!
