MERRY CREEPMAS! | Decorate with me for Creepmas and Learn about the Christmas Spider?!?

[@elliescharf]

LIVING for the peppermint spiders! Literally want to make specific spiders for every holiday now :)

[@cartermichellelee]

In the 80’s, my mom had a Christmas spider on her tree with the story about tinsel. So as an adult, I made one for my tree and hang it every year! I used mini tree ornaments in gold and used jewelry wire and put tiny beads on them for the legs

[@colemyst]

My favorite thing about taking down the tree is removing the tinsel and adding it to the box of tinsel that we've had since I was small (1960's). [By the by, tinsel reflects so much better after it gets crinkled over time. Some of ours is over 70 years old. new strands have little personality.] It's very relaxing and no one else wants to do it, so no rushing. I used to play a game with my daughter that if she found any tinsel left over she would get a surprise. Also I got her to help take care of the ornaments by holding back some small gift and hiding it amongst the limbs then when she found it she could open after the ornaments were put away as long as she didn't break anything. It taught her to be extra careful with the extra delicate ones.

What an awesome tradition. I love this.

[@KiaBlocker-ig3ws]

NICE PEPPERMINT SPIDERS AND JACK O LANTERNS FOR SNOWMAN I'M GOING TO PUT IT ON MY CHRISTMAS GOTHIC TREE AND MY LIVING ROOM.

[@kristycartwright4743]

Great idea! Yes!! The snowman jack-o'-lantern turned out just perfect. Imma huge fan of the icicles too, very vintage. On my tree every year.

[@lisaconnelly7731]

Those peppermint spiders are adorable! I'm a sewer so spiders are my spirit animal!

[@zoestephens712]

I love the little differences between the US and UK; your tinsel is called lametta and our tinsel looks like a metallic feather boa. The peppermint spiders are amazing! The wrapped canvas looks awesome, so effective 👌 I love it all 🖤

[@moyaxoxo5923]

It’s easy to make Christmas decor spooky you just pic a colour scheme and add spooky elements to add with regular decorations. Throwing some skull decorations and other spooky things even on a regular traditional tree would make it spooky with out it bring nightmare before Christmas.

[@mariharris8535]

LOVE LOVE LOVE the spiders and webs 🕷🕸🕷

[@janiebrossmann1178]

I absolutely 🖤 it…my mother in law sent me the Legend of the Christmas Spider 🕷🎄🕷and u gave me a little bit of inspiration to create my own version of it

[@raeesmerelda]

We use icicles on our tree every year, so if you want to try them again: the trick is to only do one or two at a time. Ideally you'd layer them, so do some inside first, then ornaments, then more on the outer branches, but it's fine if you only do them at the end. No fans (ceiling or otherwise) or walking fast past them allowed though (even if blowing at them from across the room is fun to watch)! ;) The old ones were made of lead (or some similarly toxic material) and didn't make quite as much of a mess (and laid much nicer), but we ran out of the stockpile of those sometime in the '80s. They really do look great with your black tree!

[@morrisonbleu]

Definitely going to make some Christmas spiders! 🕷🍬

[@channelabdullaev]

I got goosebumps by your retelling of the spider story at Christmas! That is so cool! I never heard of that. But to the loose tinsel: I was born in the 80’s and growing up we always got a fresh tree for Christmas and always covered it with silver loose tinsel. So not the fifties or sixties BUT definitely brings back so many memories from when I was really, really small.

[@ladywoodelf]

Happy to see your on board with The Lair of Voltaire channel and his spooky Christmas 🕷🎄🕷

[@jaime314]

I absolutely love your hutch idea!! If I had one I would so do this. I love decorating the house for the kids and get so into very intricately as if I'm painting the Mona lisa haha. Ps. You inspire me and I'm here for it.

[@MidgeMunster]

Thank you Jaime!! 😍❤️ happy holidays!

[@jaime314]

@@MidgeMunster eeeeyy, you made my day!! Merry Christmas!!

[@sandracushing8907]

We used to cover the window air conditioners in Christmas wrapping paper as well as any prints we had hanging up in our day center center and Pre school. Anyway, I love the gold and white present with the black bow. Everything turned out so cool.

[@bonesareheavy]

The peppermint spiders! Your crafty brilliance needs some kind of award for that! Also loved the pipe cleaner spider webs and the JOl snowman. I have a large metal spider sculpture that is on my front stoop all year long. I dress him up for the holidays. He has on a scarf and a Santa hat for Christmas.

[@leen7055]

Love the spiderweb Christmas story and your spooky themed decorations for Christmas.

[@SR-no8sr]

I have no online presence but years and years ago Pier 1 had wooden Halloween ornaments, which I still have, that looked like great old claymation holiday characters.

[@wickedelfaba]

I didn't know the story of the Christmas spider when I first started putting the spiders on my tree years ago. But I love it. And I've always loved loose tinsel. As a kid, I couldn't decorate the tree if I didn't have tinsel.

[@mrscb5303]

Beautiful!! Please be careful if you have 🐈‍⬛ cats, tinsel is very bad for them and of course that means they want to eat it 🤦🏻‍♀️ Also if you are going to change that hutch paper each season, maybe make a template out of foam core or thin plywood, then you could wrap it and slide it in easily or at least use it for cutting out the paper. So much fun to watch you craft & decorate!💚

[@cannedsalsa2]

I love Love LOVE the creativity, especially the peppermint spiders and pipe cleaner webs. WOW

[@ninjapiratess]

A couple other ways for spooky holiday decor that doesn't involve NBC, are Krampus inspired things and Mari Lwyd! A jack o'lantern snowman is a very cute idea!

[@thoracat518]

The peppermint spiders look so awesome on the black tree! Love it!

[@lauriehessler8639]

Everything turned out so great!!! It's wonderful to see you use the black Christmas tree as a Christmas tree. I don't do spooky Christmas just kitschy but I love watching your videos 😊

[@anayahpinson3420]

I have the same jack o lantern stack, definitely digging him out of storage to make a snowman. So cute, thanks for the inspiration!⛄️🖤

[@deathheke]

Great job! The Christmas lights look like spiders eggs adding an extra layer of Creepmas.

[@EricGarringer]

The pumpkin snowman is incredibly creative and turned out great!

[@heatherelizabeth3264]

Very impressed with the tree!!!

[@ceewood3358]

FABUUUUUUUUU! Totally diggin' the peppermint spiders and tinsel combo--truly inspired!

[@mgetsdressed]

Aaaaahhhh I LOVE the peppermint spiders! Never seen that before but they're so cute with the tinsel. I think the webs would look great in different sizes too for some extra depth.

[@pattiray8542]

Definitely NOT a terrible idea!!!!!! Your dining room is to die for, I LOVE IT 😍

[@JustJennyKelly]

What a cool folk story!!! I love fairy tales and folklore and what a special one this was! Kinda hit me in the feels a little…What a neat depiction of spiders coming to bring Christmas cheer when they usually make people jump lol. The fact that tinsel is modeled after that story is just perfect. Tinsel is so beautiful and so tricky lol just like spiderwebbing! We tried it once and I haven’t been able to find it since but the year we did it…just gorgeous. The way the lights it- it just sparkles. Love the peppermint spiders too! I’m going to have to make some and the webs lol. Definitely love what you did with the whole room! So much fun and still very Christmassy AND spooky! ❤️❤️❤️

[@jacquig1939]

I love it!!! I heard a different story about spiders and Christmas a few weeks ago and have been trying to find spider ornaments for my tree.

[@danisquared]

I can't wait to see how you build on this year after year :) lots of awesome ideas

[@tinamarina8983]

Oh man that jack-o-lantern snowman is ADORABLE! Dang I wish i had one of those stacks... *ads that to next year's Halloween decor list*

[@jeanniegerow8556]

You nailed it! Love the snowman and the spiders such a good idea!! So good!!

[@rachealgetscreative]

Love the spider ornaments! And the folktale.

[@phunkypuhnk]

The peppermint spiders are so inspired! And that Jack o lantern snowman!! I'm definitely going to remember those diys for the future. Love that you stepped up to the challenge! 🎄🕷️❤️

[@vampiresrfine]

How creepy cool!!! I adore those peppermint spooders and snowjack💜

[@luanna1481]

So pretty love the decorations!! For your hutch you can always during the year find different wrapping paper to do your back drop if you ever need a change.

[@trishanavarro4887]

Love the Spider Ornaments! Very thing came out great!

[@howtohaunt]

That tree looks so good in the window! LOOOVE the Jack-o-lantern snowman!

[@irene-fr5xf]

Love it!!! You have sparked my scary Christmas ideas for this year! Love the peppermint 🕷!!

[@ravensnow2931]

The peppermint spiders turned out so cute, and I don't ever like spiders! All your DIY projects were so great.

[@victoriajohnson1117]

Loving these decorations & DIYs!!!! Great job! Have a scary Christmas!! 🕸🕷

[@candydemure]

I like the tree, those spiders turned out pretty cute. I understand you're supposed to hang the tinsel by individual strands which is pretty time consuming.

[@chrissasandlin8344]

Peppermint spiders!! Perfect. Why does this make me so happy?!? :)

[@nikievans6454]

Very cute!! I’m kicking myself for not picking up the Jack o lantern stack. There was just too many things I liked this year. Hopefully they bring them back next year so I can pick up two. Also love the peppermint spiders. Great ideas!

[@eternalmod]

So clever and unexpected, yet still so cohesive! Wow, incredible work.

[@CherryBerry48]

omg you really make the hoildays like my mom did. i am loving your spider broch and your dress, omg you are such a clever witch!! i just adore you!! i dont dust and i love the cobwebs that form throughout my home, so i let the spiders decorate it all for me, lol

[@creationDragon]

I love this whole idea! The website and jack-o-lantern snowman are my favorites!

[@sherriemoukyed8676]

I love everything ! You are so creative. I have brought a little Halloween to my Christmas this year by having a Nightmare Before Christmas hot cocoa and coffee bar. I really love the spiders and spider webs on the tree. As far as the tinsel when I was a child we used to put it on all our Christmas trees. It was always hard to get it on perfectly. Your dining room came out looking great. Have a Happy Holiday!🎄💀🎁

[@daronmarkley826]

Thanks for all your great ideas they really helped me in things I can do and I must say Midge your are the bast at what you do and I’m so blessed to be apart of your channel keep up the good work now with that being said peace ☮️ love ❤️ and happiness to you Midge and I’ll see you on the next Midge Munster video also please be safe out there and I want to say I hope you and your family are having a fantastic holiday season

[@nicolaconlan168]

I absolutely love the little spider ornaments, the whole room looks gorgeous!

[@kelseychapman1174]

I’m hormonal and a little stoned and teared up over the folk tale 🥲

[@baddkatt9223]

What a fun and festive video. Such a great tree and love the wall presents. So gonna make spiders for each holiday-I do one window for EVERY holiday. Only decorate the front yard for Halloween, Christmas & Easter.

[@lilacchocolate]

So inventive!!! Love the end result! My favourite has to be that pumpkin snowman though, so cute!!! 🎄🕸🕷👏😍

[@Krystal-sd2yh]

Love the spiders! So cute! I love how you did creepmas including red and not just doing black and white

[@RealMommyLife]

I LOVE this so much. I definitely need to get a stack of those pumpkins next year to do this. Those spider ornaments are genius too!

[@shannonsmith1517]

The peppermint spiders are EVERYTHING!!! The stacking pumpkins as a snowman was awesome too! I love your channel, ghoul! 🥰🎄

[@christianfiehweg6363]

So creative! Loved the story you used as inspiration

[@jabsbyrd]

I love the Peppermint Spiders what a fabulous idea!!!

[@Jassiepoohbear]

I think all of the Creepy Community heard about the Christmas Spiders tradition this year and said sign us the F*** up!!! Lol I love it though. The story/meaning is beautiful and there's something special about creepy crawlies actually being Christmasy! 🎄🕷🕸

[@porcelina956]

Now you really make me wish I knew what happened to this little gold bead spider I got from a great aunt. It's lost in my parents house. I have looked for it every Christmas and never knew the cute story. It would fit with my decor as I do silver and gold every year.

[@DubsDoesDallas]

So cute!! I love how it all turned out!

[@Kat_Nguyen]

Your spooky Christmas decor is very cute.

[@sistaholistic]

That tree is EVERYTHING!!!

[@everythingelani]

So cool! Easy but very effective. And not too expensive 😊

[@sueloguejohnson8929]

[@leeanncounts6696]

[@MaryHadALittleHobby]

Love it! The tree came out insanely good!

[@JennaMcCallister]

Yaaaaaas to Crafty Creepmas! Also, they make little silicone hot glue finger protectors. You can get them at Dollar Tree. 🖤

[@RedRosesDead07]

What a cool story, I love learning about traditions and tales from other countries/cultures! And Midge, that spider brooch is fire! I love what you did with the peppermint ornaments and the triple white pumpkins, so adorable!!! And yeah, tinsel needs a seasoned touch, my mom was great at it... me not so much, ha ha! Everything looks wonderful, the webs turned out so cute and perfect for the theme! Perfect Creepmas projects!

[@blackplumeria7198]

Love, love, love how the room came out. 🤙🏻🌺

[@catj1597]

I love this!!!! I've been decorating for Christmas using skulls and skeletons for a few years now and I just love it. Who says Christmas has to be traditional? I like having my own tradition :)

[@antoinettefisher4125]

You look stunning hun! Love your videos and your Classy perspective on stuff 😉👍🏻🎄 xx

[@RedRosesDead07]

Also, what a cool Nightmare Before Christmas advent calendar (is that what it is?)!
