Step 2: Making the body
In this step we will make the body for our Spidie.
Take your egg carton and cut out one of the holders.
We only need one each. So there is plenty more to make others.
Once you have removed one section, trim the bottom edge up so it is neat.
Make two LeD sized wholes at the front to suit your lights. Insert them and attach the battery.
To save having to solder just use some electical tape to hold the battery to the wires.
This will be it's body.

Could you incorporate a switch to this too? I haven't worked too much with LEDs, but based off what I see from this step - once you attach the battery, it will stay on.

Yes most definatley you can my friend. Simply wire the switch between the battery and the LeD's. It is only done like this in the I'ble to simplify it.
