Halloween: Spider Web Dish

Transform a white plate or serving dish into something spooky for food, collecting items or display.

Materials

• White plate, serving dish etc.
• Black ceramic paint pen
• Pencil/eraser
• Paper
• Smock

Directions

• On paper practise making webs.

• Sketch out a spider web on a plate lightly with a pencil.  For younger children here is a tip: get a starting centre point, make spokes and then the joining threads.

• Don your smock. Trace over your web with your ceramic paint pen.

• Follow the directions to set the paint and enjoy!

Purpose

• Recycling (if the plate has a chip for instance- wouldn’t that contribute to the “spookiness” of it?!)

Safety Notes

• Follow the product directions.
• This is an activity for children who could comfortably handle a breakable plate.
• Wear a smock to protect your clothing.
