Supplies:
• ( 1 ) 12 mm round Bead
• ( 1 ) 8 mm round Bead
• ( 1 ) 2 mm round Bead
• ( 1 ) 8mm crystal Rondelle
• ( 36 ) 3 mm bugles
• (42) 4 mm bicones
• ( 1 ) 3-inch headpin

Steps:
1. Cut five 8-inch pieces of 22 guage wire.

2. Put your beads for the body of the spider on the headpin. The order should be as follows: 2mm bead, 12mm bead, rondelle, 8mm bead.

3. Wire-wrap a small loop as close as you can to the head of the spider. This will keep your spider’s body together.

4. Take three of your 8-inch pieces of wire and wrap once between the rondelle and the back end of the body.

5. Take the other two of your 8-inch wires and wrap between the rondelle and the front side of the body.

6. Start decorating the legs by stringing one 4mm bead and one bugle on a leg. Repeat the 4mm bead/1 bugle pattern until you have four 4mm beads on the leg. Wire wrap a small loop at the end of the legs to keep your beads in place. Do this pattern for 8 legs total.

7. Do the remaining back 2 legs the same way as you did the others, except have a total of five 4mm beads on them.
