Directions or making EASY Halloween Craft: Tootsie Pop Spiders

1. Take two pipe cleaners and cut them in half. Place them centered on a flat surface, edges aligned. 
2. Place a lollipop about ⅓ of the way in from the edge of the aligned pipe cleaners. Take all of the longer sides together and wrap them all the way around the lollipop stick. Spread apart each end so it begins to take the shape of a spider. Bend the ends of each pipe cleaner down in a 90 degree angle.
3. Use a hot glue gun to glue on two wiggle eyes to complete these spooky spider lollipop treats.
