"Hello, my name is Matt Cail on behalf of expertvillage.com, I'm here to talk about spider web decorations. Okay, before you get started on your spider webbing on the wall, you need to realize you don't need the whole package to do the job, not at first at least. I highly recommend tearing off a piece of the spider webbing to keep it manageable and to make sure you don't have a huge clump of spider webbing material in your hands. I would recommend tearing off about 1/5 of the package at a time. There are two ways to go about this; the first way is to use your fingers and then separate out and thin the spider webbing material and keep doing this until you have a nice piece which will come off like so. This material is already nicely pre-stretched which will help you which will make the web hanging even easier. It's all ready to go and you can see how it's going to make a great strand. The other way to go about it is you can cut, but you need some pretty sharp scissors and actually I've found that the hand method is much easier and quicker than using the scissors is."
