SPIDERS Place battery-operated votive candle on top of 1 mini pumpkin and trace around the area with a pencil. Using a serrated paring knife or a small serrated pumpkin carving knife, cut a hole from the top of the pumpkin deep enough for candle to fit. Scrape out some of the pumpkin flesh to make room for votive. Cut 4 black pipe cleaners into halves and bend to form spider legs. With tip of knife, carve out 8 small notches in pumpkins around main cavity for legs. Stick pipe cleaners into small notches.
