Spider Pumpkin Stencil
A large eight-legged spider crouches in full top-down view on this easy Halloween pumpkin stencil, its oval abdomen and round cephalothorax left as solid orange while all the space between the angled legs is pierced through. Eight legs radiate outward and slightly downward from the body, each tapering to a point. The gaps between legs are the cut areas, so work around the spider methodically to avoid accidentally snapping any single leg at its thinnest point near the body junction.
Cartoon Spider Pumpkin Stencil
A chubby cartoon spider with a scowling face fills this easy pumpkin stencil, its round body cut away at the center while the angry brow, fang, and eye pupils remain as uncut pumpkin. Four stubby curved legs arc outward on each side, each one a separate pierced cutout that glows individually when lit. Because the legs are disconnected islands of cuts, carve the body cavity first to anchor your alignment, then cut each leg segment outward so none of the narrow pumpkin bridges between legs get accidentally snapped.
Spider Silhouette Pumpkin Stencil
A bold overhead-view spider silhouette with eight long tapering legs and a rounded abdomen below a smaller cephalothorax forms this easy spider pumpkin stencil, the entire body pierced through as one large connected cutout. The legs splay outward symmetrically, spanning nearly the full width of the design. Because the whole shape is one continuous cut, the chief challenge is the narrow neck pinch between the two body sections; cut that junction slowly with a fine blade to keep both halves from separating before you are done.
Spider Pumpkin Stencil
A large, wide-legged spider dominates this beginner spider pumpkin stencil. Eight straight angular legs radiate from a round body at center, and a small rounded head sits just above the abdomen, both carved as a solid silhouette island connected to the surrounding pumpkin only by the gaps between each leg segment. When lit, the dark spider shape floats against a glowing orange field created by the large open spaces around and between each leg. Start by cutting the long outer leg segments first so the body stays supported until the final cuts.
