1 hour
Who says spooky can’t be colorful? 🕷️ This DIY spider web uses cotton rope dyed in a full rainbow spectrum to turn a classic Halloween motif into a bright, bold statement.
Supplies
- Rit Dye All-Purpose Liquid Dye in Petal Pink, Sunshine Orange, Golden Yellow, Truly Green, Royal Blue
- 100% Cotton Webs
- Cooling Rack + Baking Tray
- Squeeze Bottles
Instructions
- Gather supplies and cover work area.
- Wet the spider web with hot water and arrange on the cooling rack (with the baking tray underneath).
- In your squeeze bottle, add hot water and around a tablespoon of Rit Dye. Shake to combine.
- Apply your dyes onto the spider web over the baking tray to catch any drips. Work your way through the rainbow of colors.
- Let the dye sit on the web for at least 12 hours.
- Rinse in cold water, one section at a time to avoid any dye running.
- Let dry then display.
- The process is the same for the muslin webbing as well! You might just need a larger work surface. I dyed mine outside in the grass and left on a trashbag over night for the color to sink in.
