Crawling Creatures 2025 Part 10

Crawling Creatures 2025 Part 10

Oops I realise that I have taken the pictures wrong but you will get the idea. Also though the Blogs may have been spread out over a few weeks I made the Creatures in one Afternoon.

Starfish







I turn the Starfish over on to its Front (making sure the Eyes were to the Top). On the Back I add some Long Yarn. This is some Chunky that I have left over. I place it over the Starfish.

Crab











I turn the Crab over. This time I wanted the Eyes looking downwards. I place this above the Starfish and press Yarn into the Back. I then fold the Clay over.

Cover Yarn











I place the Snail below the Starfish. Again I add the Yarn. I make sure that the Yarn is properly Secured on all three creatures. I am able to do this because the Clay was not entirely dry. It it had been I would have had to add more Clay.

Seaside Creature Hanger











Here we have one Seaside Creature Hanger for my Bathroom.  The Snail could have perhaps have been a little straighter but maybe that is what the Crab is looking at?

Crawling Creatures 2025 Part 9

Crawling Creatures 2025 Part 9

I am continuing on with making my Snail

Add Neck









I had called the lip on the Shell a Tail. That’s not entirely accurate. The Tail is actually a Base for adding a Neck.

Orange Segments






I take some more Orange Segments and then Roll them. There is another piece that is not show in the above photograph.

Add Antennas










I add a Pair of Antennas to the Top of the Neck.

Eyes











With some White Clay I add a couple of Eyes.

Snail Pupils











Next I add some Pupils.

Smiling Snail












Finally I add the third Orange Segment to make a Smile. There you have it one Smiling Snail.
