Ages:

How we did it:

Materials List

  1. aluminum foil
  2. sequins
  3. tacky glue
  4. air dry clay (or salt dough)

    We used a basic salt dough for this, but you can use any air drying clay, too.

  2. Jeweled Turtle Pin It

    We started by sculpting the foil into a shell shape.

    Next, we added rolls of the dough to the bottom of the shell so they would stick out like feet, head and a tail.

    Now for the fun! Sequins and tacky glue finished this turtle off.

    How cute is our little turtle? It would be fun to make a whole family of these little guys.
