Halloween Spider Web Earrings

Time needed: 1 hour

Use this simple technique to make these fun Spider Web Halloween Earrings with just a few supplies!

1. Begin first layer of webs

   Double knot the end of a 3 ft. long piece of bead string to the top of the earring. Trim off excess. Begin the web by wrapping the string around the edge of the earring wire. Pull through itself and then continue. You can get a better idea of what I mean in the video above.
   
   

2. Complete first layer

   Wrap the entire first layer of spider webbing around the earring.
   
   

3. Second layer of webbing

   With the first round of spider webs in place, add a needle to the end of the thread and push through the first section.
   
   

4. Make second knot

   Wrap the thread around the needle twice and then pull all the way through. You should have a line of thread connecting the first and second layer of spider webs now.
   
   

5. Continue threading

   Continue moving down the line of knots with the needle and thread. You’re basically just creating layer after layer of knots. Again, watch the video above to get a clearer picture of what I mean!

6. Tie off center

   Once you’ve gone all the way to the middle, use the needle and thread to tie off the center in one final knot. Cut off excess thread. Repeat steps 1-6 on another earring hoop.
   
   

7. Gemstone spider construction

   Cut 8 3″ sections from the black thread and layer on top of each other like the picture below. Add a self-adhesive rhinestone to the center and place on spider web earring.
   
   

8. Secure spider

   Turn spider web earring over and add a drop of bead glue to the back. Place another black rhinestone over the glue to sandwich the thread in between the two rhinestones. Repeat with the second smaller rhinestones.
   
   

9. Trim & Wear!

   Trim off the excess black thread for the spider legs and allow bead glue to harden completely. Wear & enjoy!
