Why this wooden spider makes a difference day to day

Plastic Halloween decorations often look tired after a year. A wooden cutout doesn't. You take the spider out of the box every October, and it looks just like it did on day one. The natural material also looks calm and understated, even as spooky decor. It isn't loud or generic. So your Halloween decorations suit your home – or your shop counter.

Material & finish

The spider is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. This gives you smooth edges, an exact shape and the typical, finely burnt brown edge. That edge gives the design extra depth. The front has a black stain. Depending on the light, the grain and small knots may still show through. That's what makes each piece one of a kind. Wood is a natural material, and its texture always varies slightly. The back is left natural and untreated, so you can decorate it however you like. Every spider is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use the wooden spider

• On Halloween night: Stick a few spiders in different sizes on the window. Suddenly something seems to be crawling up the glass, even before the first little ghosts ring the bell.
• On the party table: Put a small spider at each place as table scatter or a place card. Your guests have something to discover before the first bite.
• Crafting with children: The untreated back gets painted, covered in glitter or decorated with googly eyes. Every child proudly takes home their own spooky spider.
• In a café, bakery or at a market stall: Place spiders in the counter and in the shop window. Your seasonal decorations are up in a few minutes. After Halloween, they're packed away just as quickly.
• For school, nursery and children's parties: With the set of 25, 50 or 100, every child gets their own spider. You don't need to buy extra ones individually.

Good to know about spiders

Spiders and their webs have always been classic Halloween symbols. They stand for abandoned, mysterious places where time seems to stand still. That's why a single spider silhouette on the window or door is often enough to create a spooky mood.

Care & durability

There's not much to do. After the season, store it somewhere dry. Dust it with a dry cloth when needed. That's all the wood needs. Avoid constant moisture, and the spider will be with you for many Halloweens.

Frequently asked questions

Is the spider black on both sides? No. Only the front is stained black. The back is left natural and untreated. That's ideal if you want to paint or decorate it yourself.

Can I paint the spider? Yes. The untreated back is especially good for painting, decorating and sticking things on. It makes a great craft project with children, for example.

Where does the brown edge come from? The spider is laser-cut. This creates the typical, finely burnt edge. It's part of the process and gives the design extra definition.

Do all spiders look exactly the same? The shape is laser-cut to exact dimensions. But the wood itself is a natural material. Grain, shade and small knots may vary slightly. Every piece is one of a kind.

The best part comes in the evening. The children stand in front of the decorated window and enjoy a pleasant little shiver. Simply choose your size and quantity. The spider does the rest.
