This DIY Halloween wreath combines fake spider webs, black pipe cleaners, and foam cutouts to create a haunted look. The instructions guide you through building a twisted tree shape on the wreath and adding spooky elements like spiders, bats, and a raven.

You'll need

Directions

  1. Attach a portion of the fake cobweb strands to the rear side of the wreath to form a subtle background.
  2. Wind the black pipe cleaners around the wreath base and intertwine them with each other to build a twisted, eerie tree silhouette.
  3. Strengthen the tree form by continuing to twist additional pipe cleaners around the existing structure until it has sufficient bulk and presence.
  4. Place extra cobweb material on the front of the wreath and secure the plastic spiders in place.
  5. Sketch two bat shapes and one raven shape on the black foam sheet, cut them out using scissors, and affix them with hot glue to the wreath and the pipe cleaner tree.
