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.
Spiky Spider Pumpkin Stencil
A front-facing spider with a cartoon scowl and spiky, porcupine-like hair fills this hard spider pumpkin stencil. The round, spiky abdomen is encircled by a ring of radiating spike-like projections, and four angular legs extend from each side within an outer octagonal border. The face detail consists of two teardrop-shaped eyes and a frowning mouth, all carved as open shapes inside the solid round body. When lit, the spiky halo around the body glows intensely. Carve the outer octagonal border ring first, then the leg pairs, before finishing the delicate face cutouts inside the central body.
Cartoon Spider Pumpkin Stencil
A cartoonish spider hanging from a single thread pumpkin stencil, with a wide spiky thorax section, four curved legs extending from each side, and a round head featuring a ring of small eyes above a smiling mouth with fangs. The open areas between the legs cut through to the light, while the solid spider body and thick leg stripes remain as orange pumpkin skin. The thin thread line at the top is the most vulnerable detail; pierce it last and use a linoleum cutter rather than a saw so it does not snap under lateral pressure.
Spider Web Pumpkin Stencil
An expert-level spider web pumpkin stencil featuring a large radiating cobweb that fills the pumpkin face, with concentric rings connected by curved spoke segments creating dozens of small trapezoidal cells to cut through. A small cartoonish spider with round body and eight outstretched legs sits in the lower right corner. The web structure stays intact because the solid spokes and ring arcs are left as orange skin while every cell between them is pierced. Work from the center hub outward ring by ring, finishing the spider body last since its legs are the most fragile pieces.
