web

I got an awesome nature craft book from the Orange Library last week for 10 cents. It has a bunch of projects I never would have thought of, and they are cool too, not cheesy. One of the crafts is capturing a spider’s web. To do it, you put newspaper around because then you spray paint both sides of the web and let the wet paint adhere the web to a piece of construction paper (in a contrasting color to the spray paint). Then you clip the outer web strands to release it from its spot. can you picture it? I want to frame one, webs are so amazing and beautiful. We were ready to do it, but when we started messing with the web we wanted, it’s proprietor came out all cranky, like Nebbercracker, “Get off my lawn!!” So we left his abode alone and photographed it instead.

He's obviously been working hard!
