Adorable little creatures!
I bought these as an impulse purchase. They are the most adorable little things. It looks like a standard craft project that someone craftier than me can certainly figure out how to do. The legs and antenna are cylindrical beads on a thin wire and inserted into the foam head and body. The eyes are also wired into the head. The clip is attached with hot glue. I have a lot of hair and they get tossed about quite a bit so they haven't held up very well. The first Halloween event I went to, one of the spiders had lost its eyes by the time I got home. Also one of the glued spots for one of the clips has separated from another spider. I can still use it because it's glued in several spots but I don't expect it to last much longer. I have a hot glue gun though, so I can just glue it back on. The quality is not great but it was better than I expected and the spiders are just adorable. Everyone comments on them when I wear them.

Clips are flimsy
I bought these for decorations, not to use as clips in my girls hair. However, one of the clips was broke on arrival, another broke when I picked up the spider. Having said that these make great decorations for my purpose; to pose them on a larger spider for added scary effect. The one clip was useful to clip it on the larger decoration. The beading is great for posing the spider arms for a scary effect and these do look much more realistic than typical rubber spiders. They suit my purpose, but if you need the clips they probably won't work since the glue holding the clip is poor.
