one chestnut; quite a bit of plasticine for the eyes - white and black; 8 toothpicks (plus a few for reserve); Awl if chestnuts dried out. Making a chestnut spider

Crafting a chestnut spider: job description

Along the perimeter of the chestnut, in its upper part we make 8 holes, grouping them into four. Or we make holes with an awl, or immediately with a toothpick, leaving a toothpick in a chestnut. If chestnut is not pierced with a toothpick If you worked with an awl, then fill the holes with toothpicks. We try to insert them evenly so that the identical part of the toothpick remains outside.
