Again, take the plastic spider and cut off the ring and clean him up as I did before I cast it. Take a few inches of wire (I used 16 gauge square because I had some scraps of them left over), and make a small loop on one end of the wire. Make a larger loop on the other end of the wire (thus creating a figure 8), but don’t close it.
