DIRECTIONS:
To print the snake templates, click on the "GET PATTERNS" tab above.

  3. Separate the strips into two piles - one for top pieces & one for side pieces.
  4. Cut out the pieces from the snake template; the head & tail will be cut out of green Cardstock; the eyes & tongue will be cut out of the yellow & red paper.
  5. Use the top chain patterns as a stencil for the marker patterns that will be seen from the top.
  6. Use the side chain patterns as a stencil for the marker patterns that will be seen from the side.
  7. Use the head top patterns as a stencil for the marker patterns on the snake's head.
  8. Draw a pupil in the eye of the snake. Glue eyes & tongue onto the head.

  10. Assemble a paper chain with the paper strips & glue.
  11. Glue along the back edge of the snake's head and attach to the front of the chain.
  12. Glue along the back edge of the snake's tail and attach to the back of the chain.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Link is working now I thought this looked like a great project, and wondered why the reviews were so negative. I don't know how long ago they were written, but I tried the "download" link, and immediately was able to see the pattern pages. I printed them out without any trouble, and am ready to try this project with my grandkids!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Something MISSING Previous post is correct. There is no download, only a missing URL. And JoAnn hasn't fixed it.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Where are the patterns? When you click on download pattern, URL Not Found message appears on screen. Yes, I could figure the shapes out myself, but directions state that downloadable patterns are available.
