Want to wear a real spiderweb? I mean, I already wear them, but that’s only because a blogger seldom moves from their chair.You can wear a real spiderweb with this Real Preserved Spiderweb Pendant. It is genuine silky spider thread from the spider’s poop-sac, preserved in pressed glass and made into a pendant. Hopefully it won’t attract actual spiders who want to live there while you are wearing it.
If your name is Charlotte this is your web. Wear it Charlotte. Wear it.
It’s pedantic, I know, but I have to say it because I’m a spider biologist: spider silk doesn’t come from the poop sac. It comes from specialized glands in the spider’s abdomen, each of which hook up to one spigot on the spider’s spinnerets. Admittedly, the spinnerets are right next to the poop chute.
Fun fact: a finished Charlotte’s web (called an orb-web) is made of three different kinds of silk, and the spider that made the web can spin up to seven different kinds.
Also, I freaking love these pendants.
Spider nerd alert!
I knew some spider-nerd was gonna come along and correct me as soon as I typed that. Poop-Sac just sounds better. It’s funnier. Until you see some dude at Walmart wearing one. That’s a saggy diaper that leaks. Leaves a brown web all over the store, down every aisle. That ain’t funny.
These pendants are awesome!
Ha! Thanks for posting the spider web pendants!
