Hello, my name is Matt Cail on behalf of expertvillage.com, I'm here to talk about spider web decorations. So now you can be proud that your web is done and you think you're done but you are actually not, not just yet. There is a couple of things to keep in mind for web maintenance. First off if you take a good long time on setting up your web and making sure that your tape is properly attached to the wall, you can avoid a lot of this, but if you're in a little bit of a hurry, here's a couple of other things to keep in mind. First off it's great if you can allow at least a couple of ours before your web is going to first go on display, if you have trick or treaters coming to the door or if you have people coming over for a party. Webbing is something that is not best left till the last minute. It's better if you can allow at least 3 hours, why does that matter? It matters because over those course of 3 hours, any weak spots in the web will become obvious. You don't want to have your whole web masterpiece on the wall and then you hear like a noise of tape giving away and a bunch of fake spiders falling on guests that are sitting beneath it. If you allow a couple of hours, usually that's long enough for any of those weak points to reveal themselves. I recommend just keep an eye on your web both before and during your party on occasion. I'm not saying you should be obsessed on it, it's doesn't require that much focus, but just keep an eye on it. If you start noticing that you might see some of the tape pulling away from the wall, go over this really quickly, tap it with your finger, that's it. By doing that you can avoid any web-tasterfies that may happen later in the evening. But in general it's very, very low maintenance, you put a little bit of attention into it, especially up front, it's going to save you a lot of time later on, it's going to be a great part affect.
