How to Make Snake Candle Holder for Halloween

  • Begin by rolling the air-dry clay into a long tube-like shape
  • Create the tail and the head of the snake and coil it around leaving a big hole in the middle to place the candle
  • I wanted to make a candle holder for pillar candles so I used one to coil my clay snake around it. You can arrange the snake around the candle of choice
  • You may need to stick some pins in the candle to hold the heavy snake structure
  • You can add a nose, teeth, and eyes to complete the form and leave it to dry for 24 hours
  • When completely dry, paint the underbelly of the snake white, and the top black with a silver coat over it
  • There you have it; a creepy snake candle holder for the spooky season

Follow the video tutorial for the complete process and let me know how it goes if you try it.
