DIY Video – Custom Spiderwebs For Your Creative Halloween Photography

Looking for some custom spiderwebs for your creative Halloween photograph? Maybe you really want to sell yourself as a goth for that new myspace self portrait even though you’re 45 years old. Perhaps you just like to pretend you’re living in a Victorian mansion in the 1800′s and those store bought spider webs just ain’t cutting it.

Well, over on the Make Magazine Blog they’ve got an informative video on how to make your own custom hot glue web shooter. They were kind enough to let me post it here. Enjoy. And although they don’t mention it in the video, I learned the hard way, don’t intensionally shoot the molten threads of hot glue into your face – especially more than once.

And now, for your pleasure, the video:

Nice!
