After having so much fun with my fake bake projects and now getting into the Halloween spirit, I decided to combine the two interests...

Read on to see how I put together a faux spider 'salad':

Here are the materials that I used:  A thrifted glass bowl, some greenery from my stash, Spanish moss and toy spiders (both from Dollar Tree).

(You can read how I converted the plastic toy spiders with a bit of spray paint in this Halloween post)

Starting with a mix of faux greens, I hot glued them into my salad bowl.  I tried to do so in a way that allowed only the shiny green surfaces to show and also hid the glue.

Once satisfied with my arrangement of leaves, I topped them off with a bit of Spanish moss.
It's easiest it add a dab of hot glue to the leaves themselves, then place a pinch of the moss on top.  Otherwise you end up with a gluey mess 😏

After that it was as simple as gluing in my spiders.
