Step by Step Spider Drawing Instructions
Step 1 – Draw a Round Spider Body
Start by drawing a nice big circle in the center of your page. This will be the main body of your fuzzy little spider.
Step 2 – Add Fuzzy Hair on the Left Side
From the top left of the circle, draw small zigzag bumps downward along the left side. These bumpy lines make the spider look fluffy and fun!
Step 3 – Complete the Fuzzy Outline on the Right Side
Now finish the rest of the spider’s fluffy body by drawing matching zigzag lines on the right side of the circle. Make sure the shapes mirror the left side so your spider looks evenly round and cute.
Step 4 – Draw Four Left Legs
From the left side of the body, draw four bent legs. Each one should have two little angles, like an elbow. These spider legs should look soft and chunky!
Step 5 – Add Four Right Legs
Now do the same on the right side—draw four more bent legs to match the ones on the left. Now your spider has eight wiggly legs ready to crawl!
Step 6 – Give It a Cute Face
Let’s make it adorable! Draw two black eyes near the bottom center and add a sweet smiling mouth underneath. This gives your spider a friendly and happy Halloween vibe.
