Draw the Snail: Begin by drawing a cute snail shape on a piece of paper (see reference above) You can make it as big or as small as you like,

Make Crepe Paper Balls: Take your crepe paper and tear off small pieces. Roll each piece into a ball to create colourful snail “spots.”

Fill the Shell: Apply glue to the circle section of your paper snail, then carefully press the crepe paper balls onto the glue to fill it. Mix and match colours to create a vibrant and eye-catching design.

Add Details: Once the shell is filled, add extra details, eyes, face a smiling face to give your snail personality!

Let It Dry: Allow your paper snail to dry completely before handling or displaying it. This will ensure that the crepe paper balls stay securely in place.
