Step 5: Place the spider themed bowl on top of the hand. I didn't secure the spider bowl, because I like the option to be able to lift and clean the bowl if necessary.


Step 6: Position a led disco light on top of a clear small plastic bowl. Add the clear bowl upside down and in the center for extra height.


Then, fill the bowl with snacks and other treats. Turn on the led light for extra drama.
