Spider Web

For a number of years, I can't remember how long but this photo is from 2005, we've been putting up a spider web between two big palm trees in our yard. The version above has a stuffed chihuahua as the spider and her children's dinner. I think that was the year when I had just too much of the Taco Bell chihuahua.

Building the web was fairly simple. With some nylon rope I laid out the spokes and used a cable tie to join them at the center. I spiraled out the rope starting from the center and used a cable tie at each intersection. I used additional rope and cable ties to hang it across the trees. It's probably about six foot in diameter. The spider is just store bought from Target or somewhere else.
