How to Make a Snake Memo Clip from a Plastic Straw Feb 5th 2013, 08:00 This winding snake is useful for holding your memo notes at your desk or in the kitchen. It's also pretty enough to be used as a decoration in its own right. Edit Steps Cut the snake's head out from the plastic straw. Use the diagram as a guide (note that the eye is added in a later step). Below the head, cut the snake's body. Cut the body in a spiral fashion (see diagram in previous step), tapering the spiral more thinly as you reach the tail end. For help with cutting the spiral, refer to the video below. Or, check out the instructions and images in this article. Decorate. Stick on googly eyes at the head end. Done. You now have a snake memo clip. Why not make a few more? Hang the snake memo clip. Use the spiral body slits to wrap the snake over something of an appropriate size. Insert a note into the snake's mouth to pinch it in place. Use your snake memo clip in a variety of ways. For example, you can hang scrap paper, small leaflets, flyers, your patient registration card, receipts, tickets, etc. Edit Video Edit Tips The snake can also be used as a decoration for the Zodiac. Edit Warnings Heavy pieces of paper might be too much for the snake to hold in place; only use for light and small notes.
