Speedy the Spider

Hey guys. I know I have been away for a while and I simply do not know how to get enough time to write a complete post. I’m very sorry for this. As it is Halloween today, I would like to show you something different.

This is my polymer clay charm for halloween this year and I love it. :D Speedy is very special. A special pumpkin spider. He appears at unexpected places only on 31th October and usually scares the crap out of everybody. But actually, there is no need to worry: Speedy is not poisonous or evil. See the heart on his back? Yeah. Speedy simply loves pumpkins. As there are loads of them to be found on Halloween, he starts his search for the most delious pumpkin treat and the best carved pumpkin. But it happens ever so often, that a person, who wants to eat a treat or have a closer look at the pumpkin lantern sees Speedy during his inspection. This is when the terrible stuff happens. People scream and run away, some even try to smash the spider. Poor Speedy. When Speedy realized people were so scared and dicgusted because of him, he decided that something had to be changed. So he painted an orange heart on his back, so people would know that it is just the pumpkin inspector who wants to have a closer look at a Halloween treat or decoration. Unfortunately, many people do not understand the sidn on Speedy’s back, so they start hunting him all over the place until he can hide somewhere. But you guys know know how to recognize him. So – if you ever see a spider on Halloween, don’t smash it immediately, please, make sure first, it is not our pumpkin friend.
